#441 Re: Guns N' Roses » Potential for a politically charged album? » 399 weeks ago
Civil War is vaguely political.
It's more about human nature than it is about anything else.
I think political art is unsophisticated and ages like milk, so I'd rather they not.
But Guns N' Roses is a corporate machine now. The next thing they release (if anything) is going to be radio-friendly to maximize ad buys and concert ticket revenues. Jackie Chan in The Avengers: Infinity War XXX Part 17 or something similar seems like a plausible bet.
Axl should switch up his songwriting to be a little more direct at a minimum.

I agree.
Caveat: Flawed masterpiece.
Hopefully we'll get the follow-up in this lifetime.

It can be in the context of big band touring and the circus that goes into it.
As for album releases, it's different story. Imagine Hetfield signing it off after Black album, only to come back with Death Magnetic.
It'd be suicide.
Like he'd already died.
Just the funeral he'd been waiting for.

I’ve given up on them.
The fashion event was bad enough but they could’ve dropped singles around Rio without a sweat.
I’m just here for the laughs and the improbable scenario where sneak fuck hoarders post Silkworms.

It's all about business.
If it doesn't help the business it's not happening.
Live soundboards for a sliver of a sliver of your market, likely the sliver that will also tear it to shreds? LOL.
A new GH when the current one is selling just fine? No.
Re-released AFD for no other reason besides re-releasing it? Why?
Axl will continue to wait everything out because he has leverage. If it lines up for him, he'll take it. If not, he's content to walk out the door.
The only thing I don't entirely understand is half of a year off.
I get needing a break, resting your voice, and lining up side projects but that is a decent chunk of time.

I would’ve not made Episode 7-9.
Perfection. ??
#447 Re: Guns N' Roses » LEAKS THREAD » 402 weeks ago
ridiculous, idiotic shit. even more ridiculous now, when all we probably get is endless nostalgia touring and maybe some stupid compilation album without a single new note.
Speaking of, I'm unsure of the criteria but I noticed that the Greatest Hits album is #4 on iTunes Top Rock Albums.
#448 Re: Guns N' Roses » LEAKS THREAD » 402 weeks ago
the leaker probably got hunted down by the others.
Yeah, probably. Walker said it was to test the waters after all.
It’s funny seeing old accounts from back in the day pop back up. It’s almost like the trolling was bait...
I don’t understand it though. Losing the nerve to leak 10 year old alternate versions? Why? To get in on those recording sessions that aren’t happening?
The leaky ship days are over in GNRland. Why not share the minnows with your fellow fisherman?
#449 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Video Game Console Thread » 402 weeks ago
I already have a PS4. I'm thinking about buying an xbox one since the price seems to be coming down mostly to use as a blue ray player, but I could certainly use it for gaming too. Any pros/cons vs the PS4 that I should be aware of?
Buy the PS4 Pro for future proofing.
It'll provide increased performance even if you don't use the 4K.
Basically Sony/Microsoft are introducing half-way model upgrades of consoles between new consoles.
PS4 --> PS4 Pro (PS4.5) ---> PS5 (probably around 2020).
I would google PS4 fan noise issues and see if the Pro has said issues. I remember one of them did but not the specifics.
