Re: There really seems to be a buildup now...
I agree war. I don't think he wanted to just come out and say it, just in case something happened, but he seemed pretty confidant, of it all, that the wheels are in motion now. CD I apparently was a pretty big road block legally, and now that that's out of the way, i'm assuming they've kind of purged the system, and are ready to move forward, and hopefully - quickly.
Oh, and by the way Axl, if you decide to do a solo album, i'd love to hear an instrumental-only solo album. I pretty much listen to nothing but horror film/TV scores these days, aside from CD.
Re: There really seems to be a buildup now...
I'm really starting to believe that the big guns (if they really exist) were saved for whatever comes next. It's a risky move though. Fans won't give you a second chance unless you bring it, so all the killer songs with killer hooks are going to have to come into play on whatever happens next.
The way CD was released, it was done to get it out of the way. I said that when it came out, I still believe it. The question is still, get it out of the way for what? Reunion? Probably not anytime soon (though you NEVER know in the world of GnR). More realistically, the album Axl really envisioned as his masterpiece.
Re: There really seems to be a buildup now...
Does anybody think that Axl might have a TON of Big Guns up his sleeve?
I mean, I believe there's Big Guns for the upcoming albums, but as far as i'm concerned If The World, TWAT, Catcher, Sorry, This I Love & Prostitute are Big Guns.
Re: There really seems to be a buildup now...
i can't decide, buzz and axlin.
it all depends on the definition of a "big gun" - there are some great tracks on this album but nothing super catchy. yet nothing really long either.
i guess i'd have to say that we haven't heard the big guns yet.

I disagree. Maybe I'm wrong, but what I got from Axl's words was that CD was the album, these were the songs the record company agreed to release. I think the rest is less of a Street of Dreams/TWAT/Catcher-type ballad songs, but more likely some more experimental stuff, like Scraped or Silkworms. Even the Pitman comments make me think it.
Re: There really seems to be a buildup now...
Axl also specifically talked about more 'different' styles. Which adds even more to the fact that the next album could be even more of an experimentation or difference from GNR's past catalog.
In hind sight, maybe songs like TWAT, Catcher & This I Love actually saved CD from being a sunken ship. Could very well be possible.
