Coldplay and GnR are completely different beasts.  Coldplay whether you like them or not have a lot more relevance today than GnR.

I don't think most of us are anti-BBF, in fact I'd argue the opposite.  The problem he runs into is that he has the job of replicating the music of the 2 most beloved guitarists in GnR history.  The BH fans are always going to prefer BH and the Slash fans will prefer Slash.  BBF needs to start playing Robin's stuff so people will actually prefer him to the original.

Funny that you think that's why it's going to be huge...I think that's why it's going to flop.  Nobody will like the whole thing and people aren't going to buy an album these days for 1 or 2 songs they like.  they will find alternative ways of getting the few that they want.

They don't need to ever be in the same room to work on a new song together - especially if they aren't writing the song.  I don't see this as being quite as big as some are making it to be, but it is a positive sign.

Maybe he's trying to guilt them into including him.  Him even saying this makes me wonder if those discussions are really taking place...

Baz is a hanger on...I don't think I'd label him as a friend necessarily, though with Axl, who really knows.

TWAT
Better
Anything other than the rest of the leaks

VR is a failure. There's nothing there that's any good. TWAT alone is better than both of those albums. I dont know what happened to him but his riffs aint very good anymore

Every failure should result in a Grammy and songs featured as DLC on GH3.  Anybody with a resonable opinion want to chime in?

Maybe this deserves a new thread, but what happened?  As much as I love Slash, his creativity seemed to slow a lot with Snakepit and VR.  As much as I like some of the songs he's done post GnR, some of them are as unlistenable as the new leaks are.  I tend to think that Slash came up with less of the riffs and more of the solos and Izzy wrote the majority of the riffs for Guns.  His solos are still pretty good to great, but the songwriting has definately hit a snag. 

Much like I think Axl is a failure without Slash and Izzy, I think the same goes for Slash without Axl and Izzy - and to a lesser extent Izzy without Slash and Axl.  It's amazing really that the sum of the parts is that much better than any of them individually.  Flashes of brilliance from all of them, but none of them can sustain it at all.
