Underhardy Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Underwhelming. Not hits and songs no one outside of these forums would listen to twice. Waiting for higher quality versions to come out in time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitarpatch Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I’ll hold off judgement on the mix until there’s a digital release. A vinyl rip, if this is the source, isn’t going to be the best representation Cool songs. I think you kind of get where Axl wanted to go direction wise. It’s a shame it never got through the process of releasing these songs until now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quality is not top notch. The only explaination I can think of is that both are early versions of the same song or its fanmade. The General doesnt match descriptions of the song. Monsters sounds like the cellphone-recording but its different in arrangment. Im not convinced this is the real deal or I dont think its the final version. Atlas was once described as November Rain esque....eye of the beholder and all...don't take what folk like Bach say literally....it's all a vibe...a feeling manm...

And Absurd. Honestly Hard Skool was the perfect opportunity for a big release, I really wish they had done major promotion around it like what the Stones are doing now with their new album. As usual, they blew it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LandOla Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I damned both of these in the first listen but Monsters is really good actually. Not what I was expecting but it's a grower. I apologize for dismissing this at first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prettytiedup88 Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 They should have released these in Dolby Atmos and put out a fun Horror / Halloween video. Would have been a cool seasonal release. Quite like them. Some fantastic vocals. At this point anything from this era is experimental so i'm enjoying them for what they are. Definitely stronger offerings from the CD era. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underhardy Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 You know the vocals are mixed like shit when you can’t even make out half of the words to both songs. Just like Street of Dreams’ demo, or state of Grace, the last lines of the general are just Axl singing the melody, presumably waiting for the right lyrics to come to mind. Both songs just sound completely muffled, with no good structure. The only good part in both songs is really the rasp breakdown on Monsters, and even those vocals just sound a little weird. This fuckin sucks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAxlMorrison Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 After a few listens, and now listening to them back to back (as intended I guess,) yeah man. I really like this. And the guitars are phenomenal. Axl hits another vocal level at the end of monsters as well. for the people who just want Nightrain and anything goes forever and ever, obviously this isn’t for them. I’d definitely recommend to them, if I had access, they need to slap together a couple of party/jukebox drinking type songs. But for someone like me who’s been down with Axl experimenting and evolving for years, this is pretty awesome. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
