metallex78 wrote:99 Times was one of the songs I was looking forward to on Snakepit 2. They debuted it live first, and I remember hearing crappy live mp3 recordings of it, and it sounded promising.
It was disappointing that it didn’t end up on Ain’t Life Grand. But I think it was actually morphed into the SMKC song Stone Blind, on World On Fire.
Havent listened to SMKC for a while but i just checked and your clearly right. Hmmm wonder if I could salvage Rod Jacksons vocals and put them on there. The song seems quite different to the Snakepit one but it's clear from the intro what it used to be.
That's the very first I hear of '99 Times'. Is it on YouTube somewhere?
#22 Re: Guns N' Roses » Why do you think more singles haven't come out yet? » 129 weeks ago
Honestly at this point I think it's either something else or Axl being afraid of the reception. Getting a confirmation that he missed the right time to release it or that all that agony and work it was 20 years ago really was for nothing.
If they didn't care, they wouldn't be going through their catalogue finding obscure choices like "Anything Goes" or "SOYL" to have something different to play. Same with those pointless AC/DC covers. They are bored of their standard setlist themselves. Yet they do anything but play actual "new" stuff.
If they didn't care, they wouldn't have gone through the hassle of even re-recording those 6 songs.
If Axl didn't care, he wouldn't have been so cheerful when they first started playing Absurd. He clearly enjoys singing it.
So my money is on either they don't believe in the material or something else is going on

Supposedly Duff told this German version of CR that news are coming in the next week.
Technically the quotes says "I believe even this week"... So either tonight or in Rome on Saturday?

I don't think that's the issue. With all of his investments he would have had enough money for it pre-NITL. The point is that buying the rights back will not make as much profit as it would cost.

I met Duff after a Walking Papers Show back in 2013 and asked him about the album. He really appreciated the interest in it, but said that he won't pursue it - too complicated and not worth the costs :-(

The track with Slash is from the unreleased Beautiful Disease record. I wonder whether it's the exact same version or whether he updated the track
I'm still wondering though what happened to the solo album he started w/ Izzy back in 2015

I actually liked some of his tunes on The Sea, but this is just embarrassing. The lyrics, the trying too hard, the trying to imitate Scott's phrasing, the video... Back when VR broke up and Scott seemed to clash with Matt the most, Scott complaint about Matt's ego and desire to sing throughout all the songs. Well, who would have a guessed that the first VR song post-Scott would have Matt on lead vocals

Am I the only one who really liked Circus Maximus from the leaks?
No you're not. I really love that piece and hope it has become Ides Of March or se7en - so that there's a chance we'll one day get to hear it.
I find that kinda music interesting but sort of non functional for a rock band, like it would be cool music to make as an instrumental for some type of art film or something...but in my head I dunno how you can go to a show and listen to like SCOM then that one.
Well going from I Wanna Be Your Dog to Absurd isn't quite a smooth genre transition either and they still do it...

2006 all the way.
#30 Re: Guns N' Roses » SOG single coming? » 172 weeks ago
My guess is that they are probably in the system since they uploaded Absurd & Hard School. More and more songs being found probably will have something do with the search behavior. The next single will be the updated November Rain and that will carry them through to the end of the year and tour.
