They never released the contents of the suicide note.
Chris was the runt of the litter. He had really bad asthma as a kid, took that awful steroid, and it impacted his growth and caused brittle bones.
He attempted to wrestle but it simply wasn't feasible. Reduced to tagging in to wrestle Percy Pringle (Paul Bearer).
He couldn't deal with it and killed himself.
Here he is in action...

I enjoyed that first match, Percy Pringle had such an expressive face for selling. Main thing wrestlers these days seem to miss is that. You see way to many taking and giving big moves with no expression at all

Someone on mygnr has finally called out the clipping on the bass drum throughout.
Thought I was the only one who heard it.
The appalling mix notwithstanding, this is just so amateurish as to be laughable. Right up there with the CD liner notes debacle for me.
GNR is incapable of not fucking up things other bands don't fuck up.

It would seem its somehow both. At least its better than Hard stool, that song wasn't released it fucking escaped.
HAHA. That's a funny phrase. But it's also funny the diversity of opinion. I really liked Hard School, demo and as-released. It felt like a song fans would have loved in 2000 and it also had a vibe that could have fit into a 96 record. And I thought it still worked.
It makes it even worse for me because out of all the locker leaks stuff i probably liked Hardschool the most. But they neutered it completely, hacking the intro off, the mix is awful. It's a shame

I finally got around to giving the 7' a spin on my record player, The General is clippy as hell, but i have to say i thought Perhaps sounded great.

i love the song tbh but look how crap the artwork is on my copy. Is this just a UK thing or is it the same for anyone else here?

Separately, on another day maybe a month later, he was asked about his comments album releasing an album with the current songs, and that received no comment.
Regarding when he was asked about that, and gave no comment. Was that after the current lawsuits were known about publicly?

Exactly this.
If these are the final mixes i'm not very happy with them. Specialy with the bridge of The General. Also the last 30 seconds of It are chaotic.
I prefer Monsters. Anyway... I would like these not to be the final versions.
Monsters sounds great to me. The General needs work i think vocally with the mix. I get if the distortion is a choice on the vocals,it was for Hardskool too and worked even less than general. It's subjective & for me these last 3 songs destroy Absurd and Hard skool tbh.
that zip file is BS and just the leaks, fucked with and thrown in a zip file i think. I do think the actual versions will sound pretty much like the leaks though.
In probably 2 weeks we will all have FLACS for these songs and can then judge better.
