I really enjoyed the album!
I got a few weeks ago with some other new music. I ran it on my crappy laptop that kept messing with the CD at times. Overall, I love the sound of Slash's playing. I agree it's his best playing in a long time and alot of songs have a strong punk, Appetite kind of feel. Myles was in top form vocally and I thought his change in tone on certain songs flowed well. I think he did better on the fast rockers like Love, Lie, One Last Thrill, Halo and No More Heroes. I was impressed with Anastasia too. The drumming was loud and mean. Todd was great with the choruses and the bass lines synced within the songs. It wasn't groundbreaking though. Not the best rock album of 2012. Still love the new Van Halen album better folks! Overall, I applaud Slash for making a great rock album and I can't wait to hear what see has in store with the future either with Myles, instrumental stuff or with a new VR concept.

I'm excited to see Brave. The animations, music, and textures look amazing. The plot seems simple to understand and the characters seem quite enjoyable. I'm glad American cinema is finally shipping out some advanced female hero characterizations. I really want Pixar to fully recover from the Cars 2 disaster. Dreamworks I've been impressed with as of late except I wish they would stop beating their franchises to death (cough Madagascar cough) I'm hoping they don't make a How To Train Your Dragon 2 because it stood on its own with a solid conclusion.
When it comes to live action films for Disney, they just can't seem to create that magic without an overabundance in CGI. I thought John Carter was a good film; but I agree it had a ton of flaws with story structure and pacing. I knew it wasn't going to bring Disney back into the fore front of doing any kind of film and pulling it off.
It's hard for producers to make the right decisions in order to please an audience and budget in the same exact time period. Johnny Depp is a great actor and always tries to find something new or quirky within each character he plays. He is also a down to earth fellow from what I've hard which I respect about some celebrities. He helps bring in the money for audiences due to popularity. Personally if it wasn't for Johnny no one would of given a rat's ass about the recent Alice movie. Alot of people didn't know the other actors in the film until it came out especially kids and teens.
#2903 Re: The Sunset Strip » Lady GaGa Thread » 751 weeks ago
Axlin, hit the nail on the head! Madonna just needs to retire in her mansion with her swimming pool of money and fuck off. Her comments were not only childish; but were about as elaborate as a rant from a Youtube comment.
Let other artists shine. At least Gaga is trying to branch out with new music concepts; so pop music today isn't just repetitive beats and cheesy lyrics. As for me, It would have to be a mix of the first two albums. Some songs I love to listen to while others are so so. Songs I like to listen to with close friends or with my family. I'm not a big fan of her work. Born This Way has a few good songs; but I just can't get into it except for Edge of Glory. Me and my friend love her keytar though!

I was introduced to Adele by a friend who heard "Rolling in the Deep" and thought it reminded her of Axl so figured I'd like it.
Now I want Axl to cover it
I think you just opened Pandora's box! 
#2905 Re: The Sunset Strip » Most Recent Movie You've Seen » 751 weeks ago
I thought the first one was decent and enjoyable for the most part; but it wasn't groundbreaking or making me feel like a kid again at the movies like others I've seen in the past. Also it was quite over hyped in my opinion. Second one was a piece of shit and too long. That's actually a good decision, Russ!

Atlas Shrugged!
I know part of Jackie Chan was leaked under the fake title Checkmate and parts of instrumental and vocal bits (Blood in the water, etc) have appeared over the past year or two.
#2907 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R Gear eBay Auction » 751 weeks ago
I'd love to own some of Mother Goose's keyboard parts! If they have some GNR hats in stock like the cool one Frank was wearing during some of the recent tours, that would be awesome to purchase!
#2908 Re: The Sunset Strip » Most Recent Movie You've Seen » 751 weeks ago
I'm kind of like with certain movies. It depends on my mood! I think a similar situation with me was I refused to watch Transformers 3 because it was 2 1/2 hours for stupid reasons and it didn't improve a whole lot over the last film. 
#2909 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R Gear eBay Auction » 751 weeks ago
I'm having the same problem as well dude!
#2910 Re: Guns N' Roses » Remember when... » 752 weeks ago
I think the synth intro from Mother Goose & Dizzy would work well for segueing into a new album or used some of the song for a bonus track for a box set on the session work. The lyrics for the song itself aren't great; but with Bucket's guitar parts on the live version from 2001 sounded really cool. The orchestral intro to The General would be even better. Starting a new record with that song would be a great concept to try or with a radio friendly rocker.
