It would be a good candidate for GNR to re-record for their next album, since they don't write new songs, and most people outside of hardcore fans have never heard it. Imagine they keep it as is, with Scott on vocals but remix and master it to fit in as a hidden bonus track on the next Guns album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweersa Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 5 hours ago, MaskingApathy said: He should've put more of those old demos from when they were looking for singers, before Scott came along. They wrote a bunch of instrumentals, some of which Scott rejected. Also would love to hear the stuff with Izzy on it. Baz recorded a few songs with them. Would be cool to hear those, and others. I think some have surfaced over the years. There's a rough version of the third album with a different singer, but it was just demos. Nothing suitable for release was recorded. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Includes a personality autographed 8x10 photo of Matt Sorum BONUS TRACKS Velvet Revolver's debut album, Contraband, was released in 2004. It mixed hard rock, grunge, and alternative metal elements to create a groundbreaking sound. The collaboration between iconic musicians Slash, Duff McKagan, and Matt Sorum of Guns N' Roses fame, alongside Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots and Dave Kushner, Brings a fusion of unparalleled talent and experience. The 20th-anniversary edition of the album, which features the hits "Fall To Pieces," "Slither," and "Dirty Little Thing," will also include an acoustic version of "Fall To Pieces," along with five covers. Tracks: Side A 1. Sucker Train Blues 2. Do It For The Kids 3. Big Machine 4. Illegal i Song 5. Spectacle Side B 1. Fall to Pieces 2. Headspace 3. Superhuman 4. Set Me Free 5. You Got No Right Side C 1. Slither 2. Dirty Little Thing 3. Loving The Alien 4. Fall To Pieces (Acoustic Version) 5. Bodies Side D 1. Surrender 2. No More, No More 3. Negative Creep 4. Money Label: Sony Don't think anything unreleased just the B sides thrown in....scary that it's been 20 years This 20th anniversary release is super disappointing imo. The bonus tracks are stuff that's already been available online for years, no live stuff (except for one that's already been released years ago), no demos etc. Boring... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the sound... what a crazy thing that could have been. Still, cool... Eric Dover sucks. Give me Rod Jackson any day. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine some of the music for that stuff has been changed and reused as SMCK songs like how unused Snakepit tunes like Dry Jack were. I have never heard of anyone who has the Corey Taylor tracks, even your top level hoarders don't have them or if they do they don't admit to it. If they ever appear I don't think it would be from someone in the fanbase. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 From a Slash interview I read some time ago, the Corey Taylor recordings were rough, and are not suitable for release. I believe the project was abandoned before those ideas/songs were properly recorded. For this reason, it's unlikely they would all get back together to record them to a quality that could be released. (Unless they release them as is, as some sort of bonus material) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corey would have been a much better choice than Scott for longevity purposes. Scott was definitely more of a showman, typical frontman vibe but give me Corey all day long as far as overall vocal chops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think Corey would not have taken his foot off the gas in having the occasional pop at Axl. In that timeline Slash and Duff probably don't smooth things over with Axl and VR may still be going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Duff was already back on 'good' terms with Axl, by the end of 2011 Axl admitted a reunion would be Duff and Slash joining the current band... Corey definitely would've talked some shit, but that all goes out the window when they see that payday from Coachella. Still, it would've been great to hear that version of 'VR'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he just evolved it into Stone Blind Eh, they're vaguely similar, but 99 Times is just vamping on G Major, whereas Stone Blind has a I-IV chord change, and is in the key of A minor. They're only really similar in that they're both clean arpeggios. That does remind me that I wanted to record a proper version of those Snakepit songs, though.
