And that's the exact reason I don't want a slash instrumental.
For example WTTJ is an awesome song, but an instrumental version it would get bland, likewise the lyrics alone don't do it, it's the chemestry between the vocal melodies and the guitars that make that type of rock kickass.
That's a shitty reason to not want a Slash solo album.
You see, when he writes these songs he's writing them with the expectation of a vocal track over it, which means the instrumental will be repetitive.
If he had written songs as instrumentals, then it's a whole different arrangement and process and they wouldn't be as repetitive as this.
Watch This is wonderful and I don't find it repetitive at all.

"fucking terrible" is a strong term... Lets not act like its "Big Machine" or something that we all agree sucks..
We don't all agree that song sucks.
This song however is not that good.

My point is, no way every song will suck. On CD the reviews were much more negative from non GNR fans. With Slash's album, the reviews have been much more positive. Most of the bad reviews are from people that absolutely love CD and think Robin Finck is brilliant. Again, I don't care if you have a bad opinion, but for some here, I don't care how good the song is, Slash won't win. But ya, I didn't mean to start anything with anyone... I just doubt seeing Chinese Blues, Russ, Jarmo, ShotgunBlues1978, or some of the others really digging anything off this album. But, I could be way wrong. I thought CD has some really strong songs, with If the World being my favorite, but it also had some total trash like Scraped.
I can't stand Robin Finck, and I've given this album a 'bad review' (even though that is a fucking joke because I HAVEN'T HEARD IT YET)

It's certainly different. Not something I'd listen to over and over.

I like this one better than Starlight....
I agree, but that's not saying much.

Russ, if your head wasn't so far up Axl's ass you'd be able to enjoy what wonderful fucking music we have available on this album. This album is so fresh and everything about it is just sooooo original.
I really dig Watch This. Everything else so far I don't.
Bring on the new STP.

That's my thing so far. I was kinda getting hyped for this because so many others were excited about it. But I haven't heard anything impressive thus far.
Russtcb, no offense, but I really don't expect you to say anything really great about any song on the whole album. How one could not like "watch this" or some of the other tracks is hard to believe, especially on a GNR board. All the songs have been pretty well received. I guess my point is, and i don't mean this in a bad way, is that your pro Axl feelings may blind your openess to these songs. I could be way wrong, but even Faldor, who tends to be more in the Axl camp, seems to like some of these tunes. HA, its going to be a damn fine rock album, with lots of tasty riffs. The vocals are not the most important thing to me, the guitar is. Maybe that is why I am digging all the songs.
Don't turn this thread into another Axl vs. Slash discussion, it doesn't have one fucking thing to do with who you prefer over the other.
This being a GNR board has nothing to do with whether or not I would like the music. I like Watch This, the other 3 seem kinda bland to me. There's nothing all that special about them. The guitar is good, but the vocals ruin it for me.
Which is why this should have been an instrumental Slash album.

Was a little dissapointed with this..until it got to the solo...which blew my fucking mind. Awesome vocals (although sometimes a little too high and enter mika territory) but nonetheless great harmonies and an overall impressive track. Can't wait for "Back From Cali."
Anyone know if the whole thing leaked yet? I notice the Japanese release date has been pushed back to the 31st.
It has not. I've been looking. I just want to hear the whole Cornell track and I'll be happy. Probably skip the rest of it at this point.

The most impressive thing I've heard is Watch Out, the instrumental off the album. That song kicks ten tons of ass.
