THE GENERAL - MONSTERS - Official Discussion Thread. NO LINKS OR ASKING FOR LINKS


Recommended Posts

I think a release on the 8th is more likely. People have tried finding it on Tidal and it doesn’t show up. Not to mention it takes a bit of time before the website redirects before a release, not the night before. Also it would’ve been out already in New Zealand and Australia, etc.

Fair point, unless it’s like “Absurd” again (12AM EST.)

They should just let him. It’s not like GnR sells them after the shows and would be missing out on income.  Then again this management team doesn’t have much experience outside the GnR circus so they don’t understand real business choices. 

Controlling availability and price of your product by preventing sales by third parties, is a real business choice.

GNR's first official video since Moses wore short pants should have similar numbers. Instead they can't even get their own subscribers to watch.

I'm glad someone put together a few recent musical references to put this in proper context.  FFS, there are pimple popping videos on Youtube released a month or two ago with 26 million views!

These songs are hardly even a blackhead on the ass cheek of the music world, never mind the world at large.

Not to mention that is the date the Perhaps 7" comes out (if that isn't already applied lol)

Since it’s getting its own artwork (which I for one wasn’t expected), maybe we’re gonna get a music video/other promotional items like we did with “Perhaps”? 
 

It’s gotta be on the 8th at this point, otherwise, the first “official” rips of TG will definitely be from the vinyl.

Why is it ? The whole world isn't on the same time zone 

More than likely it would’ve been up by now, but it could also very well be 12AM PST (California time). Who knows…

The General - https://open.spotify.com/track/4kXbOjC3XfBpFR3zbWbHZv

(Redirects to Spotify main menu; NOT a “404” error) 

Perhaps - https://open.spotify.com/album/2CoWZzMwNzNI49Ip5IvSbb

(“Perhaps” single listing)

 

At the very least, TG is in the database, it’s just the matter of them pulling the trigger and having it go live.

 

BUT, what’s interesting to me (at least) is Spotify coded “Perhaps” as an “album” and TG is showing as a “track.” Has me wondering: will there be more than just one song dropping? 👀 Maybe TG is just part of a larger drop…

There is a Perhaps “track” link as well.

https://open.spotify.com/track/1xl3tncP1hSU9EPkIY535i?si=1NpWh8gcRHqldP1n1saKvg

From a PC, if you click it, it will just redirect you to the “album” link.

I don’t think it means anything.

Darn… well, at least we know TG’s in there now… somewhere… just waiting for the powers that be to FINALLY flip that switch. ;)

interesting. how did you find the link for the General?

 

There's a track version of Perhaps too.

https://open.spotify.com/track/1xl3tncP1hSU9EPkIY535i

The perhaps album has one track called perhaps, and the other singles are like that too (e.g. Hard Skool is a one song "album" https://open.spotify.com/album/2UWJ1UJybSEmQZ87lQHmp0 ) maybe they'll put the general with the perhaps "album"?  We might not get new single artwork for the General if they group it with Perhaps though, so I hope it isn't grouped!

Yeah, I typed in the “gnr.lnk.to/thegeneral” link which was initially discovered earlier today and led some people to the “TG” gold/black artwork. 
 

It redirected me to Spotify on the web browser with the message “cannot be found” (or something along those lines) and copied that new link which appeared in the search bar.

I've already got The General on my phone. No point in getting excited if it comes to Apple Music or Spotify.

What’s interesting is there were rumors that they filmed the two TG performances (Hollywood Bowl/H&H) for an eventual music video… that honestly would make sense, given how into it Slash was the first time they performed TG live :lol:

I like that artwork, maybe fan made...who knows for sure yet 

It would make sense if the days comi6upyp the 8th. That the letters would appear in the logo. We've heard it anyway most likely
