#8481 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N Roses manager discusses Chinese Democracy » 916 weeks ago
wow...that one line about the artwork suddenly brought back all my fears that it wasn't happening and that's why we have no official statement. But hell - with CD as a single on the radio at the moment...I think it must be going to happen...and it's just GNR being GNR....
#8482 Re: Guns N' Roses » Worth the Wait??? » 916 weeks ago
Yeah CITR is an awesome track...lots of room for changes too since it dates from 99, think about how IRS changed over it's lifetime....
I would have been sad if the leaks had been dumped. I've grown to know and love them...and am glad to see finalised versions of them making it out into the world!
#8483 Re: Guns N' Roses » Worth the Wait??? » 916 weeks ago
Not to get obsessive about the Rhyming thing...buy can I mention:
"I don't need your civil WAR, it feeds the rich while ir buries the POOR"
"Welcome to the Jungle, We've got fun and GAMES, we've got everything you want, honey we know the NAMES"
I'm sure there would be hundreds more...
The use of this kind of thing has always been part of Axl's style. So i don't think there's any real case to say that the new material is lyrically weaker than the old due to rhyming.
I agree with james that nothing can live up to anything, and I think the leaks..while they got people through...took away a lot of the magic for some too...imagine if we'd heard nothing then everything at once...
For me its all been worth it. I'm really excited since I saw those best buy promos and let myself belive they really are releasing the album. I think the tracks we have make a great album, different to old GNR, but certainly one of the top records of my life....and mixed properly will be truely awesome!

I love Shotgun blues.
I don't have an issue with Rhyming in a song either for that matter.

#8486 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N' Roses to release Chinese Democracy single » 916 weeks ago
Given that it is already the 22nd here in Oz - when are we gonna get to hear this damn thing or is it just a release to US radio stations they are shipping (presumably emailing) around tomorrow?

#8488 Re: Guns N' Roses » Best Buy to release GNR's back catalogue on new format » 916 weeks ago
yeah...i'm interested to know what this means in terms of basic sound quality...like if i buy them again will i hear a noticible improvment? I'm the kinda guy that likes DTS-MA over DD 5.1 so maybe. I agree...AFD is a kickass recording in terms of performance...but you put it on after a more modern record and the age and production of the time shows.
#8489 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N' Roses Best Buy promotional ads » 916 weeks ago
When I listened to the ads again this morning, it seemed evident to me that the CD solo is re-recorded. To me re-recorded = Ron playing.
Over robin's part or buckets?
#8490 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N' Roses Best Buy promotional ads » 916 weeks ago
I agree. I think this will be sucessful as hell from those adds. The material sounded kickass like that too. I'm pretty excited!
