But Slash did say they are recording, right?

That's a LOT of assumptions.
While the vault material is obviously in play, Slash and co. are quite capable of busting out some songs quick style and they've had nearly four years to do it.
I don’t think anyone questions the ability of Slash/Duff to bust out a new song...I think we are all skeptical of the lead singer to bust out vocals.
I honestly think it’s not vocal ability it’s just having lyrics and vocals that songs come from. What to sing about and why. Izzy used to be there too to contribute songs, lyrics, ideas. Maybe Duff can help.
But I look at Nothing, there’s a vocal melody Slash can work off. At CE Axl seemed to be saying he wanted to go back to AFD style writing, where Izzy or Axl would have some vocal or riff ideas and Slash would really take it on. Axl doesn’t seem like he was saying just lay some tracks down and I’ll sing over them. Songs aren’t really the problem maybe, it’s the execution of them for an album. They’ve got all these diverse strands that need to be knitted into a hard rock t shirt.

Basically the Tories offered the referendum as a bribe to vote for them. Cameron didn’t expect Leave to win. But Boris and Farage were swinging in that campaign.
Boris and Cameron have been enemies since university. They both just wanted to be PM. Boris obviously has no idea what leaving the EU means. And maybe it doesn’t matter. Who knows the future, but it’s a wild, isolating move. We don’t make anything, so being great isn’t going to happen as much as people want it. So they better get much better deals internationally. That is what you’d Hope the Tories can do. Labour should be about staying in the EU and taking the immigration for unlimited borrowing from the world bank. What I don’t get is why everyone suddenly wanted to throw that away? Is it because they got their welfare cut? No jobs, no welfare...throw in cultural and racism issues of immigration and older people still thinking we should be empire.
But basically EU was stability, not great but stable, leaving anything could happen. And it will take 10-20 years to sort it out.
Ah Corbyn is saying banning selling weapons? Well that’s him done then because as we’ve seen in the US you cannot beat the MIC. So is that why he’s accused of anti Semitism? He’s going up against big banks and business?
I’m conflicted because some of Brexit makes sense if you want to run a successful country, but it seems ambitious, it will take years for ordinary people to get anything. The free ride is over. Mediocre is over. And that makes sense, look at the rest of the world, everywhere is a mess. Is it better in Mexico than the UK?
The problem with taxing the rich is they just do less or find loopholes. And it’s never enough to plug all the holes. It just throttles business. Also minimum wage just means you don’t get a job. I worked in kitchens below minimum wage. I did get a burger and drink everyday though. It was better than no job. Now they will just use a machine to wash dishes!
I kind of admire the ambition of Brexit but doubt it’s going to work. I feel like Labour will look after more people, even though some of seems a little naive. I would go for a new credit card over trying to start a new business. If we Leave I’m going to start a Keto diet delivery service from my room.

England have home advantage so all they can do is go for it.
From the WC I think tactically Southgate needs to wake up. If you go one up in semis, park the bus!
Also still need to find some players who can put their foot in. Hope he takes Henderson and Milner for that. I mean they play in a 3 for Liverpool and win the CL. Seem like solid options. Winks and Dier ok too.
Ali seems like an option too. Hopefully Sterling will play left and Kane up front. Maybe Rashford on the right. That’s the problem position. Maybe Sancho and have Mount and Rash on bench. There’s a lot of options. Kane and Ali to start with Mount and Abraham to come on.
TAA and Chilwell can provide good service to Kane.
Pickford
Arnold
Maguire
Gomez
Chilwell
Henderson
Oxlade
Mount
Sterling
Rashford
Kane

Well, we can say one thing for certain. We really have no idea what we will eventually get. No idea. I guess that’s kinda cool.
“We don’t know shit” is the umbrella we’ve been operating under for almost two decades.
#146 Re: Guns N' Roses » New Album Thread » 290 weeks ago
It does seem like a UYI situation where there’s older material like Back off or Don’t Cry and new songs that Slash will bring in.
It might not be a double cd but if you start putting tracks together like Hardschool, Berlin, The Seeker, Atlas, Perhaps, Soul Monster plus a couple new ones that’s half a cd without trying. With State of Grace, Going Down, Wichita Lineman, Silkworms, Circus and a few new ones - that’s a good mix.

I’m not sure how vocals would fit on Zodiac or Quick but I do like the sound of them. I think they might end up like Scraped. They’d be cool if slowed down a little. They aren’t fussy here.
#148 Re: The Garden » The United Kingdom General Election, 2nd May 2024 » 290 weeks ago
Labour should really be pointing out how bad Brexit will be for people.
Someone should have mentioned this in the first referendum.
#149 Re: Guns N' Roses » Rough Mixes Disc 1 » 290 weeks ago
Scraped to me is how they worked Bucket material. It seems like Costanzo and Axl worked some magic on it.
#150 Re: Guns N' Roses » New Album Thread » 290 weeks ago
Old n New vocals seems like the move.
