Yeah I like Nothing too, probably the best of the post CD songs to be fair

'On a restless sea' = Down by the ocean/Down by the sea? probably not but who knows. I remember Axl saying Fink played an SRV style solo on one song, I would imagine that was Nothing.

I had this thought too. A theory could be Down By The Ocean could have been a working title based on the island-sounding guitar lick. Seems like something Izzy could come up with. The big thing that goes against it is the demo had no mention of bodies of water in the lyrics. What are the writing credits?

He has no answers and is busy defending the band amidst the anger being spewed on his board.

Thanks.

The only reason I ask is that if it were a one off thing and started maybe a week ago it might suggest he knew this was coming (or at least suspected it) tbf i assume they are going to screw up every release too, so wouldn't surprise me if he did.

But if it happens on and off then it could be for any reason.

He posted the announcement of Atlas/Nothin in his news feed on 11/24 which led me to believe this actually would happen. He's usually silent until he confirms stuff himself.

He's super tight with Fernando, or at least was.  I assume you already know this.
