I saw an article yesterday in our papers. Potentially difficult questions to be answered by a few rock stars. Makes you wander how you would feel about people you idolised if they are found guilty of abuse, particularly if minors are involved

Thank you for saying what we we were probably all thinking Sky Dog!

I agree that’s a lame excuse. I remember ‘nu gnr’ would sometimes do small intimate concerts sometimes after their main show from memory. I always thought that was pretty cool. Even if they were getting paid a million dollars by some Russian oligarch

I hear what you’re saying James my line of thinking was more that they could test the appetite without releasing their best material. I agree they definitely missed a trick with the leaks.

Maybe releasing silkworms was a way for the band to test how much traffic and revenue they could generate via streaming

Yes, I think releasing a new song every 4-6 weeks is a good way to go. They don't even have to release the album. Release 12 songs over however many months...and then the fans can put it all together as an album/collection.

That seems to be the trend among a lot of bands these days. Drop a single on Spotify/YouTube once a month or so, and after about five or six of them, then drop the rest of the album. And it makes sense the way consumers have such short attention spans these days.

Exactly. If you drop the album right away with only 1 single released, a lot of songs end up getting lost in the shuffle. By releasing a bunch of songs in a separate manner before releasing an album, you force the audience to give proper attention to each song.

I agree with this. I’m Patiently waiting for a new album from the Wildhearts which drops early September. The first song was played as an encore to a live stream concert. Then released 3 songs to Spotify and one to Kerrang! Radio from memory and a cool music video to the last single. It’s been a nice build up as the album slowly starts to reveal itself with each song before you finally hear how it all pieces together. It would be nice if GNR could do the same. I’m still a fan of the album as opposed to single songs.

With regards to the acoustic guitars, I think it would be cool if the band could release an EP with acoustic songs, which would balance out any CD style tracks quite nicely. They could also possibly have a b-side of their favourite covers like Lies. This would mean the album could be kept purely for original songs.

How about grab some acoustic guitars and create some stripped down songs. No samples, effects etc and possibly easier on Axls voice.

#309 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash - Rocket Man » 213 weeks ago

Would have liked to hear Axl on this one given how big a fan of Elton he is.

Fortunately I haven’t listened to the most recent leaks since they first came out, so I’ve mostly forgotten them. I sincerely hope we will be treated to an album all of the band can be proud of and some more ‘out there’ b-sides to keep things going.
