Not so brave when you’re knocking on deaths door are we?

Tbf, most people aren't brave when dying. Usually they're regretful about things in their life. It's sad.

Yup, the potential side effects of the vaccines (and the odds of having a very bad reaction) are so much less bad and lower than your odds with contracting covid. Even if someone unvaxxed gets Covid and does ok, there are long Covid complications that are worth avoiding.

IMO a ‘press release’ is about as un rock n’roll as you get. They’re for corporates

Literally every musical act - even small ones - do official announcement notes saying what the hell it is they're doing. It's a normal thing.

I can't see how the vinyl production delays are a surprise to them since they did the updated Greatest Hits vinyl release in 2020.

Also it's all available exclusively through their own store. This isn't a mass market release - it's a "take pre-orders from hardcore fans who actually want this for a few weeks/months and then send order to printing and pressing plants" release.

My god....

The vinyl ships June 24th, 2022

The CD ships Feb 25th 2022


That officially rules out an album until next summer at the earliest.

Not necessarily. Long waits for physical media releases are the norm these days. Digital launch and then physical ships months later.

Could see something in Spring. But with the way things are, who knows.

The press release only credits Axl as the writer.

That really doesn't sound like Hard School to me.

The less they talk the quicker they release new songs so I'm going to vote for an album. Incredible we know almost nothing about it.

I'd love a surprise, completely out of the blue album release.

It's not unprecedented. Many other mainstream artists have done similar releases.

It also prevents leaks.

I'm going to kick myself for this. They've effectively been shadow dropping singles now with no notice and also saying virtually nothing after they do.... a shadow drop of an entire album/EP to be followed with a physical release for fans to buy later is possible.

It lines up with how they've done things with these two singles and isn't unheard of these days. Other much more mainstream artists have done the unannounced album release to streaming platforms online with a physical sale beginning weeks/months later. That way they get to release the thing themselves without a leak of the physical media ruining the launch.

Fuck, now my hopes are up again and I think that's what they might actually be doing. Guess we'll know by end of the year.

Did we all start to have the same thought at the same time! 16
