There’s enough for a solid album right now. Perhaps gives me a lot of hope of how Slash can put his own style on these songs, unlike TWAT and CD etc that just doesn’t feel like Slash.

I’m still baffled why they still do Slither

Agreed that Scraped should’ve been left with scraps on the floor. Absolutely rubbish song with shitty cut and paste vocals. If that was one of their best, I’d hate to see what their worst was…

Shacklers though, that’s a killer track. They just need to remove the stupid elephant noises intro, to tighten it up a bit.

I actually really like Scraped 16

I’d have taken off Catcher and Sorry (save em for another album) and added an instrumental and Going Down.

1. Chinese Democracy
2. TWAT
3. Better
4. The Blues
5. IRS
6. Riad
7. Prostitute
8. Shacklers
9. Scraped
10. Instrumental
11. Going Down
12. This I Love
13. Madagascar
14. If The World

That’s how I listen to it

The movie thing I did know from somewhere I guess that's why some people call it Se7en. There's a bit of a repeating theme from songs back then about killers CITR,Zodiac,

Did Beltrami tell you anything about any guest appearances on The General from a female singer? There were reports of it in 2003 on a few sites, though seems largely forgotten by the fanbase. Sarah Brightman, Andrew Lloyd Webbers ex wife.

I think the Sarah Brightman thing was fake. I didn't get much from Beltrami. I posted email addresses so others could try. I tried Sebastian Bach too ages ago, but the guy, he's lovely, but he was so vague. He tried describing the song, but I couldn't post what he said because there was nothing of note lol. I tried one of his ladies too, I remained friends with her for a long time, but again, it never offered any info

Zodiac came from a journalist, the one who said it sounded like Teen Spirit/Nirvana

You're mixing Zodiac up with Quick Song as the Nirvana ripoff....I remember your article. I'm pretty sure it's here in CD Whispers somewhere.

Your site got a lot of crap back then from the usual suspects (Madison for starters) but you really did get some juicy info for a starved fan base that wasn't getting any concrete info from anywhere else.

I still laugh at that description of Atlas Shrugged as a glam NR hybrid (or whatever).

Atlas kind of gives me a weird acoustic Janes Addiction vibe, so no doubt people would hate my description

I wonder how the orchestrations fit in. Is it an intro or is it playing over the song itself?

#496 Re: Guns N' Roses » If GNR releases nothing in 2023, is this the end for you? » 177 weeks ago

If Bucket stays that release is totally different imo

#497 Re: Guns N' Roses » If GNR releases nothing in 2023, is this the end for you? » 177 weeks ago

The more I listen to these songs the angrier I get they didn’t release Chinese Democracy as a double album in 04-06

Crazzzzy good. Those screams. I think that was The General too. That drum beat is the same

Just listened to mysterious soundcheck song #2 and the last minute of Oklahoma again. They sound nothing alike. You people are high.


For me this jam in rehersal:

I used that clip to make an extended version of that jam, I like it, if it's not Oklahoma I hope it turns into something.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-zr8STLSRs

Now I can hear the drum beat without frank pausing and I hear it looped, i'm pretty sure that this is The General, the drum beat is very close to the version heard in the cell phone clip. It's not exactly the same but it seems like its franks version of someone elses drum beat. Close but not the same, with his own spin on it.

I will be very interested to see if this gets sound checked again soon and if anyone can record it if it does.

Great job, man
