Never been crazy about "Chinese Democracy"
It has always been kind of boring and lackluster for me............

I hate john Rich, that song he and Big made with Bon Jovi is the worst most annoying gayest song ever.
#3423 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » New GNR vs old GNR/ GNR vs Velvet Revolver thread » 873 weeks ago
You guys can go around and around all day but check this out:
There is nothing we have heard that will come close to being as legendary as WTTJ, PC or SCOM. NOTHING. It isn't the new bands fault, IF the old band got back together, they wouldn't be able to touch those songs either.
listen to the guitar work in Track 2 and compare that to the guitar work in SCOM or NR or Estranged or what have u and it basically has NO guitar.
The solo at the end, is OK but its just a flashy, yanking off meaningless jibberish that does nothing to elevate the song whatsoever.
TWAT is a good, not great solo, it gets u there but never goes off and takes u over the top.
when Axl is screaming his "I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR UUUUUUUUUUUUU"
the guitar stays low and on the same thing, if the guitar would start going off super high during that part, that song would take u over the top emotionally but unfortunately it fails to fully deliver.
As I stated earlier, u go listen to Metallica's Death Magnetic and u will understand how generic and bland the riffs on these songs are. Its a credit to Axl's genius and talent that he is able to make great songs around mediocre music.

Yeah but the difference is, Baz has two amazing country songs in "one battle with the bottle and Jumpin off the wagon
those songs are great whether u like country or not. They are also great cause Bach isnt a poser doing country. The songs really are HIM and his well documented battles so they don't come across as lame. He doesn't seem like a sell out in these songs as they fit him well.

War,
with all due respect, thats some of the craziest most ridiculous stuff I've read on a message forum.
People DO tell the difference in solos. For me, the Solos are just as memorable as the lyrics/vocals. The NR solo is as famous as the song. I remember at work one day, NR came on. 15 minutes later everyone I worked with were humming the "SOLO"
same with SCOM and Estranged.
Estranged is great but u take Slash's guitar work out of it, and its just a good song.
If u listen to the leaks, Song 2 is good, but if it had Slash/estranged like Guitar work, it would be epic masterpiece level. Instead its just a good song.

Yeah, Please never put RATM in the same sentence as GNR cause they are NOWHERE near GNR on any level whatsoever.
When they jam together, Tom Morello plays rhythm for Slash. Zach whatever his name is would be as famous as me if he were standing next to Axl.
#3427 Re: Guns N' Roses » First single is If The World? (theory) » 873 weeks ago
This album is gonna be very very weird.
Shackler's and If The World couldn't be more different.
#3428 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » New GNR vs old GNR/ GNR vs Velvet Revolver thread » 874 weeks ago
exactly
as much as i like SOME of AC/DC they are a perfect example of what gnr would be if they didn't explore new avenues of their art form. vr is another one
not trying to start another pointless debate about that one - just supporting my point with examples and IMO!
I don't agree. UYI was a drastic departure from AFD.
#3429 Re: Guns N' Roses » The "Best Buy" leaks » 874 weeks ago
Chinese Democracy sounds even more increadible from what we've heard. The vocals sound completly redone, guitar parts added and made more prominent, and way more harmony parts everywhere.
And this is now the second song i can say honestly that we've heard Bbf on.
To me it sounded exactly like the version we got last month or so.
#3430 Re: Guns N' Roses » First single is If The World? (theory) » 874 weeks ago
The only thing I don't like about TWAT is the little guitar run before the first Chorus. I don't why, but that bugs me............
