#101 Re: Guns N' Roses » What happened to Axl's voice? » 85 weeks ago
How do you explain Axl singing with AC/DC? My Gosh, It was almost perfect. Sounded so close to Brian. I was impressed.
Axl can sing like that when he wants. he just doesnt.
Just look at 2008 for example.

that is probably the best he has done WTTJ since the 90s
#102 Re: Guns N' Roses » What happened to Axl's voice? » 85 weeks ago
Didn't he go to Bazs guy in 06 or right before? For something. I kinda remember that.
AFter the first hammerstein show he lost his voice, and almost had to cancel the rest of the shows. But Baz gave Axl his vocal coach and that coach helped Axl so he was able to finish that set of shows, then I think Axl just kept that coach for a bit
#103 Re: Guns N' Roses » What happened to Axl's voice? » 85 weeks ago
He blew his voice out in the 90s, also had polyps on his vocalcords that got removed, and that is what messed his voice up for good
he never sang correctly either, which took its toll.
#104 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 85 weeks ago
Do we have agreed upon chorus lyrics for the general?
I see a lyric site online has it as:
My only regret
Is that I never took the time to forgive
All those unspoken feelings
That were never spared
And those who understand
And lack self respect
And not the sordid meaningI'm unsure about those last two lines, I hear all kinds of other possibilities in my ears - phrases like "laughed at your distress" or "not disordered meanings" but it could be i'm just overthinking it????
You know how it goes with this stuff like if you listen to it with something in your head it sounds like that so I could be full of shit. Just wondering if there's any type of confirmed version or consensus?
yeah I cant figure out those last two lines either

Silkworms in Vegas live is the one
Yup 100%
I do like the remix that imsorry did that added the chorus from RIR3 and HOB into the song to make it complete. But the video audio verse of Silkworms is amazing

I’m stuck on Monsters
I am with you on this, I love monsters, I think its the best of the CD era left over stuff so far.

Oh the vocal FX will stay, they will just level the vocals so its not all over the place
I still think someone may have messed with those parts esp if it was Walker who leaked itI think things will be a tad clearer but nothing major. We will find out soon unless we'll gnr does some gnr'ing.
As long as they just fix the levels on those parts and tone down the echo/reverb it will make it way better

I think all the original stuff will surface at some point on a huge boxset. Why not?
Now is not the time. Once the reunion happened, CD2 was toast. It’s unfortunate because I want the dudes on there who wrote it.
I feel the same way. It’s great we get official reworking, but man the originals are just so much better. Maybe minus absurd, silkworms was better
Silkworms is a million times better than absurd
Absurd is way too repetive
And its still dumb they took out the chorus

He is def a troll. And he ruined two general threads
imagine calling me of all people the biggest defender of slash when this is the first nice thing I have said about slash in over 20 years bc I think if its him on Monsters I think its his best work on the CD era stuff bc the rest was crap.
I want to know whose alt this is.
Can James just prune all his posts about Robin in both threads and dump them into a thread of its own, debating who is on these songs so it doenst ruin two threads.
He's gone now but he actually isn't a troll. Well...not a typical troll anyways. He's a true believer in everything he says. I remember this guy from the Finck forums in 2007-8. He popped back up here during the Village leaks. Had to ban him of course.
He doesn't mean any harm but Jesus Christ...it's incessant. I'd like to have just let him post but it's literally killing real discussion.
too bad he just didnt start a who plays on the general and monsters thread and then kept all that talk in that, instead of talking about it in multiple threads.

2008 WTTJ from Rock AM is probably Axls best sounding WTTJ since the 90s IMO
