Giblet Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I did some analysis of the "Final Master" version of the song. It's just someone combining the songs, badly (added distortion, cuts off the highs by about 3k). Clips as well. Prob a ruse to get people to join discord.

Guitto Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 This two, or one song, are A LOT better than anything from the 2019 leaks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan speculation turned into "fact" is how Me and My Elvis became Soul Monster. There was never a single word from anyone in the know that made the claim. It was simply an assumption based on the various working titles we heard about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People also trying to promote their own crap channels by taking credit for shit they had nothing to do with. Well the version that's claiming to be mixed and mastered sounds incredible. Way better than the first leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsters is def Slash. Parts of The General sound like him, too. Only the solo in The General trips me up. Sounds like Bucket. If it’s Slash, he’s playing really fast and clean Love Slash’s work on Monsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4NNY Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 The General is growing on me, I love hearing that orchestral backing they we all heard during the CD tours so long ago. Somewhat feels like a blast from the past but the vocal choice/effect during the chorus is a bit jarring for me, maybe that will grow in time too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pathetic self promotion for a shitty discord channel. There is no new leak, other than the real tracks we're listening to tonight. This geek put together an edit and trying to pretend it's something else to get people to join his server. Ignore the grift.

WhazUp Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 To the mods, is nonstop plugging of one's own discord channel within the rules?

ZoSoRose Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Monsters has a really simple structure for Axl. Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus. I guess Hard Skool does too, but at least Monsters has more lyrics. I also think it’s possible that Monsters = Soul Monster and Me and My Elvis was scrapped. The bridge matches up to what Axl alluded to, and the title would make for a wild coincidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't know when to stop and they were getting high on their own supply. The CD sessions have some really good songs along with some turds but you're right. There's no massive song that was going to blow the world's mind. Having said that, both these songs should've been on the album. Remove Scraped and Street of Dreams. I love Street of Dreams and Scraped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
