I think for me this is Axl's best vocal take in the CD era. Only other thing that comes close is the scream in TWAT.
You think the general is Axls best vocal take on the CD era stuff? i think its one of his worst right up there with scrapped.
Oh My God is also good but only in the verses. This has a great chorus.
Stuff like This I Love is too Michael Bolton for me.

I know it’s too little too late, but I was listening to The General loudly in my car today and it did sound like Slash to me. At least it sounded like it could be him. I still believe the versions that leaked are basically what is going to be released, just mixed better.
Regardless, good sign playing it live. And it did sound pretty close to what we’ve heard. Will “Monsters” be next? Maybe save Atlas, etc. for the next round of dates?
It sounds like Slash is playing a Finck riff and a Buckethead solo. That's why it's confusing I think. Slash usually doesn't play like this to my ears. The sound is there, but not the style. Hard Skool and Absurd are a lot more Slash than this.

I don't think it's a hoard. Both songs were newly registered on ASCAP so that suggests they are tied to a release which has now leaked. They are registered as one song so who knows what that means. Either they are both on the vinyl or there is another release coming. Judging by the live show these vocals may even be new.

Or an album might be in play.
#276 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 153 weeks ago
The vinyl must have 2 new songs then. That came out of left field.

Pretty impressed with his vocals on The General. He is very much on point for a 61 year old man singing in a falsetto. Even though the videos Ive watched are poop quality he sounds pretty good on everything else as well. Just when I think I'm out and have gotten closure, they pull me back in.
He even sounds okay on SCOM.

The vocals may be new then?
#279 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns n roses played the general » 153 weeks ago
The ASCAP listing having both the songs gets even more confusing.
My three theories for it now:
1) It's meant to be two separate listings and the TB Elite Management Team fucked up
2) It's meant to be together on a full album-like release but it's split up for the B-Side.
3) Monsters was meant to be a hidden track on the end of The General on the Perhaps vinyl
Yeah I'm even more confused than before now.

So now he's back to singing good again? Literally shocked he's pulling off The General.
