#191 Re: Guns N' Roses » Slash confirms “one or two” new songs by June » 183 weeks ago
It does kinda make me wonder what the label might be waiting for though. Surely the label would be itching to get the song released as soon as it’s handed over, particularly as the band is touring right now
I would assume that the label would want a single to coincide with the UYI box, like SOYL in 2018, but Sp1at says it's CD era material, which obviously wouldn't be on said box set...it's very confusing.

It's recorded, just waiting on the record company to release it. They never respond these days to queries, and have no idea what songs have been done, just that it's re recorded CD era material, which is known anyway
Does this mean the UYI box set won't have a single accompanying it, like Shadow in 2018?

Imagine Fernando trying to negotiate with film studios/producers. Anything beyond signing off on using a few old songs would obviously be too difficult.

monkeychow wrote:Only thing in your post I would disagree with is that it has anything to do with Slash and Duff rejoining. Slash has put out NINE full non-GNR records and countless guest appearances since he originally left GNR. Duff isn't a guy that's going to get in the way of putting out a record. Their presence on a record, as members of the classic GNR line up, would only encourage a label to support a release not detract from it. It's not them.
I know it’s not them, what I meant is that essentially writing/recording/re recording and talking about getting it out there is impossible because like Matt Sorum Eluded to ‘they’re walking on eggshells’. So it’s entirely on Axl I agree. I can’t imagine Axl trying to tell Slash ‘re do that solo I don’t like it’ but you know that’s probably happening to some degree because the album was finished already! And as Axl said at China Exchange ‘I was a big fan of the old lineup’ speaking of the last iteration before the reunion. I also remember Alan Niven speaking about how Slash and Duff were annoyed at recording Axle Chinese leftovers or something like that… this is all so strange. I still wonder what prompted this whole reunion. Did Ron and Tommy leave to make room for Slash and Duff? Did they quit and leave Axl with no other option but to reunite? Weather or not money was the main driving force to get it going, it surely is the only thing that’s keeping it going now.
According to Downzy at Mygnr (who has had contact with the GNR camp), as of July 2015 Axl and Pitman were working on CD 2 every day, there was still tension with Slash even though they had spoken and a reunion was not on the cards until DJ quit. As for what prompted that, the rumor is (this part not from Downzy) that Nikki Sixx made DJ choose between Sixx AM and GNR, and DJ chose Sixx AM so he could play his own songs. I assume DJ's part on CD 2 was going to be to add a lick here and there, like Slash with Absurd, and he just wasn't interested. He had talked nonstop about all the demos he had written for GNR, which apparently Axl had done absolutely nothing with, which was surely embarrassing.
#195 Re: Guns N' Roses » What are your opinions of HS and Absurd? » 184 weeks ago
I like the 2000 Silkworms demo and HOB performance. Absurd is abrasive garbage. Atrocious riffs and annoying chorus, the only thing that makes it more listenable than the BBF version is the fact that it's mixed properly.
I like Slash's additions to Hard Skool but the echoey mix on Axl's vocals completely destroys the song.

First time Hard Skool not played since it's debut.
#197 Re: Guns N' Roses » What is your favorite song on CD? » 186 weeks ago
Better or Shackler's.
#198 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN’R 2022 Tour Thread » 187 weeks ago
I've always wanted Axl doing Nutbush City Limits.
#199 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R 2021 Tour Thread » 194 weeks ago
Some of the lyrics seem accurate but a lot of it is stuff only Evader seems to hear, he even admitted as such.
#200 Re: Guns N' Roses » Slash confirms “one or two” new songs by June » 200 weeks ago
I don't think Izzy would help Axl write at all but he could write the lyrics instead since Axl is unable or unwilling to do so anymore. People say Axl is also unwilling to record new vocals but he did record Rock The Rock a few years ago.
