Richardparkerjr26 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 I found a collection of somgs on youtube, i wont give the link but the cover is kind of a cool pretend guns n roses type of look with a bunch of berries on it. Well there are some unreleased old ones on there but a few ive never heard or forgot about. Maybe from the locker leaks. One song the hook says “i still remember or know your name” cant rememeber. Slow grinding similar style to monsters and general. There is one other song on there that definitely is cd era sounding that was unfamilar to me on the back end of the 30 minutes or so. The album is listed as new gnr 2023 and hasnt been taken down since august. Can anyone name the 2 songs im refering to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first song you described is called State of Grace. I don't know about the other, since you didn't provide any description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimisbatman Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 There used to be a fan edit of Monsters on YT, whereby they added the instrumental part to the intro...... Can't find it, did anyone get a copy of it before it was removed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Has there been any mention of the title Monsters other than the file name on the leaked track? Time will tell regardless when it officially drops, keeping 'Chicken Dinner' in mind here! Phenomenal tune. Phenomenal vox. More of it please, Axl! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think when it was registered (through ASCAP?) it was as 'The General & Monsters' I think that's how it was worded, @Blackstar found it I think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about that! Odd that it was registered as one track, I seem to recall people thinking Monsters was initially the orchestral part of The General or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 12 minutes ago, Rindmelon said: Yeah I think when it was registered (through ASCAP?) it was as 'The General & Monsters' I think that's how it was worded, @Blackstar found it I think. It was registered as "The General and Monsters" on SESAC (which collects publishing royalties for Axl) and other databases that got the data from Universal (which has Axl's publishing). On GMR, though (which collects royalties for Slash and Duff) it has been registered just as "The General" (It should be on BMI, too, which collects royalties for Brain and his friends, but it hasn't appeared there yet). So I think your theory that the songs were registered together so that UMG could take down Monsters as The General (without giving away that it's a different song) is very plausible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was the only thing that really made sense at that time. If correct then it's kind of weird that recreations of monsters by Evader and others might have made them change how they registered it. Of course when Evader made that song he titled it The General, & so did I with that video I did where i tried to pick out the lyrics. Ironically the only word I did get right was 'Monsters' lol In retrospect I should have figured it out from that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bridge in "Elvis Presley and the Monster of Soul aka The Soul Monster (working title Leave Me Alone)" which will no doubt end up "Soul Monster". I think it's our most Black Sabbath moment. Sang it on a Christmas eve. Imo the meanest section of anything I've sung to date. Which having said that I'm sure when it's heard others may disagree but we felt it was a Christmas card of unadulterated venom so to speak. I felt a lot better afterwards. (Axl Rose , Here Today...
