#282 Re: Guns N' Roses » Me And My Elvis Instrumental Leak (2019) » 87 weeks ago
Just bumping this to mourn the fact that we will almost certainly never get a finished track with Axl vocals on top of this. I guess it's technically possible this turned into another song but I'd say 99% chance this was never used, and that sucks. Axl really didn't deserve the band he had. So much squandered potential.
I agree.
This is in the bin with however many other instrumentals were never worked on again.

Vocals are center-channel on both tracks, so they can be mostly-isolated. They are very clear on Monsters. On The General, they are about 60% clear, going into effect-mode in the "My only regret" and "Of those who" sections. I think that was intentional, and clear lyrics aren't meant to be heard. Could be wrong.
I got most things wrong with the rebuild, but am pleased with what I thought I heard of the vocal melody. Playing one on top of the other, the screaming section almost kinda sorta sounds almost sorta similar. Almost.
Glad these are out. Hopefully my anxiety level will return to normal.
Now that we've heard it, you did a remarkable job with what you had to work with.

After much back and forth, we are finally content with the quality of the Perhaps/The General vinyl. We are sorry it pushes the release to December 8. pic.twitter.com/Ttb1bv2mqS

Hackney Diamonds has been out for a week.
Like a trillion different versions on vinyl...including baseball themed covers.
#286 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 87 weeks ago
Looks like the real versions are finally being removed from YouTube and Spotify.
Gonna remove them here shortly.
Wow I missed a lot today. Where did these drop?
Here! In this thread! Check the OP.

Do not post those fan edit "final masters" here. I just checked mygnr and it's one of their loons doing it so he can spam his channels/discord everywhere.
Not gonna promote him here.

There was a clip leaked back in 2008 that was thought to be The General, about 32 seconds long. Started out with the lyric "Once upon a time..." Anyone know the clip I'm referring to?
Unfortunately...I don't.
There were so many fake clips back in the day I started blocking them all out and stopped downloading.
Dave...do you remember this one?

Monsters has to be Soul monster. I‘m not so much into it yet as a whole , but the bridge is really the meanest axl has ever sounded if you ask ne!
It has to be. Not sure why so many... especially on mygnr...act like it can't be.
He says both words in the song.
It flows almost seamlessly with The General...the other Beltrami songs may do this as well.
Yeah...Axl's description of Soul Monster vocals fit.

https://youtu.be/AJVl8YYGd90?feature=sharedIs it just me or does that melody appear in both new leaks?
I hear it in both aswell. I feel like both are suppose to be one song but they split it into two for some reason
Oh they are both one song for sure
I think its missing a solo in the middle or interlude like silkworms had
This reminds me of the interludes worked on back then but never mentioned again.
The way these songs flow makes it a bit more understandable how he initially wanted certain songs on a second album.
I wish we could've got the real album before it all went to shit. It would've been different than that Best Buy beer coaster we got.

It's similar to both but the inferior track.
Warming up to The General.
Soul Monster is a beast.
I would like the general more if the mix was better
Supposedly, Nando commented on Reddit that the vinyl was delayed due to the poor quality. This is probably from the vinyl. Hopefully the final version is better
from mygnr...
Before the thread got taken down on Reddit, Fernando commented this "It was held back due to the very bad quality of the vinyl we first received and we finally got it to the right spot."
If you look on his profile the comment is still there. I'm guessing what we are hearing is rips of these poor quality vinyls that have been rejected
That pisses me off.
Why couldn't he just tell us this shit as it happens? He could've instantly had fans on his side and the meltdowns yesterday completely avoidable.
Shit quality vinyl is becoming an issue...one reason speculated is that these companies know that the majority never actually listen to the vinyl they buy.
In other words....I believe him. He just handled it the wrong way.
