"The General" is officially delayed... but "The General" AND "Monsters" is (unofficially) out of the bag

Both fucking retarded.

But threatening to kick someone's ass on the internet because a vinyl with 2 songs was delayed is the most psychotic, pathetic and ridiculous thing I've ever witnessed online 

No, it’s not. Lower the hyperbole.

If that was the case then it would be done that was live too, right? 

 

Well, that's your opinion that you're entitled to 🤷🏻‍♂️

 

Now don't talk down to me you condescending little shit.

I’m tired of people perpetuating the silly notion that it’s a mistake in “Absurd.” It wasn’t a “lazy” mistake they didn’t feel like fixing. All it takes is dragging the track with your mouse to sync it how you want.

Also, I’m not being condescending. I straight up called you out for your dog shit opinions.

 

Edit: Also, they sing a lot of stuff different live versus the studio album. But you know who helps recreate what you hear on the studio tracks? Melissa.

This would actually be extremely upsetting if it wasnt all so boringly predictable,

Anybody else just assume that this band are gonna F it up just to soften the blow for when it inevitably does?...because lets face it, they ALWAYS do!...has any band or it's management consistently dropped the ball as much as GNR? 

 

The apathy they seem to treat their loyal and dedicated fanbase (which to be honest they are lucky to have at times) is kinda sociopathic (state of bliss ;-) ) at times.....they dont even acknowledge our existence, how hard is it to just let us know whats happening and keep an open dialogue, EVERY other band of this size (Metallica, Foos, Green Day etc) are all brilliant in updating their fans and doing awesome stuff to keep things fresh, I've accepted Guns arent always that way, but they could at least let us know when stuff like this is gonna go down and not treat us as they burden they have to endure...in an "Oh no, my fans want us to address them"

 

Would love if (as other bands would do) they could just be cool as F and just post it on streaming services for all of us tomorrow....but we ALL know that will never happen. ...and around and round we go on this GNR merry-go-round.

Are you in here for some marijuana ?

I edited the first one for a typo when I meant to say “over and over.” The second one above was edited because I forgot to respond to your comment about the way they perform it live. 

 

Personally, I’m enjoying how we’re all melting down over this the moment those emails hit our inboxes. This band is such a fuckin’ joke.

I wouldn't say no that's for sure.

I was asking whether you edited Absurd itself, seeing as how defensive you were getting over it.

 

And me, as frustrating as it is, it's fun to watch unfold.

GNR uploaded a San Antonio insta post 50 minutes ago and every single comment is 'Release The General'... this is going to play right into their hands when it's released isn't it...🤦🏻‍♂️

Why are those dumbasses posting bullshit about a concert that was literally  a month ago?? They deserve being called out of for their ineptitude and general douchebaggery.

I almost think GNR management has had enough with our side of the fanbase and is trying to just get rid of us. A lot of the hardcore fans seem very burned over this, and I don’t think I’m really going to be supporting the band anymore myself. People will write this off as a conspiracy, and it may be, but there’s almost no other explanation that makes sense. It really feels like the hardcore fans are just hated and something management and the band would rather be without.

It is a conspiracy theory as was the theory that the digital release of Perhaps would be postponed out of spite only because we found out about the placeholder countdown page.

There are a few explanations that make more sense than this: e.g. poor planning and being late to send it for pressing so the release date wasn't met.

[Zeppelin]

Wow. The General is more exciting than I thought it would be.

[Miden34]

imagine this.... someone, with no IQ, ACCIDENTALLY made ALLLLLLL the vinyl with a Pre-reunion version of the general. thus, they need to delay. obviously, i dont even believe what i say most of the time so i dont expect you to. BUT STILL.. Think. 

im scared of one thing. and ole lemmy quote. its an old quote he used a lot. "The chase is better than the catch." i hope that isnt whats gonna happen here. the build up is getting immense
