#191 Re: The Garden » First Internet murder expected by the end of the year » 558 weeks ago
I agree that there will be an eventual backlash, especially Facebook(or Twitter). I predicted a few years back that Facebook will suffer the same fate as Myspace. Everyone disagreed and said Facebook is here to stay, everyone uses it, blah blah blah. Those same people said the same thing about myspace in 2006.
I think you're right.
They're bigger companies than myspace ever was so the brand will survie somehow surely, but social networks are attracting a lot of negative press these days.
I don't think they'll last much longer.

What a dumb article!!!
While it was an odd song choice I'll admit, Slash wasn't miming HIS parts, its just the backing that was pre-recorded because the band wasn't there.
Slash played his parts really fucking well if you ask me!
Slash should have turned it down or forced them to pay for the band to come.
You two are just pissed because the article is 100% right and on point.

Boring fear-mongering

Anyone can't just cover a song and release it can they?
Yes they can. If the song has been "released" it is totally legal to cover it as long as you pay the PRO fees. A band cannot stop you from covering their music. Axl cannot stop slash and vice versa. BUT everytime Axl plays a song Slash has a writting credit on Slash gets paid and vice versa.
"The question then becomes, why are you allowed to perform songs live without permission? This also makes you money from someone elses material. Yes, they do get paid, but they can't stop it either?"
Performance rights are public and open to all. You don't need permission to play anybody's music.

Hey. Here's a video for one of my tracks called "The Life and Death of Terminus Abruptus".
I cut it together from a public domain 80s cartoon movie called "Space Transformers" beacuse I though it suited the sound.
Let me know what you think:
The rest of the EP is on itunes https://itunes.apple.com/ie/album/overl … d919782985

Yeah I have pre ordered 6 copies for me and my mates from jbhi
I love the excitement of buying a good CD in the shop. It pays the artist and the shop too I suppose.
I can remember every step f my trip to the CD shop to buy Bowie's last album in 2012.
Haven't bought a physical CD since. I usually just itunes everything. I like the ritual of it though. It feels like a celebration.
The cover art on this CD is soo cool that I want it on my shelf too!
Probably going to buy a few physical disks this year if Lenny Kravitz new album is as good as Slash's and I'm get Buckcherrys new EP and along with Sixx Am if the downloads are up to scratch.

So basically... nothing you say is true.
Good sir. This is the internet. Manners are paramount.

Having a first go.
Slash with a solid backing band / production.
Pros: Slash sounds good, Myles oft reminds me of Bruce Dickinson. Slash has a vocailst who's passable and can complement him.
Cons: Bit Iron Maiden at places, in feel at least. Slash lacks a vocalist who challenges him as an artist.In short: Slash is doing what Axl should be doing. Of course, they should be doing this shit together, but Slash earns points for the effort. The band is good, but they are there to back up Slash. They are not the legacy unit of Duff and Matt, who click with him and push him positively.
To me, World on Fire is the most interesting solo album Slash has made. As a Post-GNR work, it still faces stiff competition from Contraband and It's Five O'Clock Somewhere, which are both more full-on band efforts. Contraband suffers from Slash being so buried in the mix, while IFOCS' heel is Eric Dover, who just appears out of place. WOF improves on their shortcomings in both counts, but Slash fails to completely utilize on their successes.
To me the Iron Maiden sound is a very very good thing.
Maiden are fucking great.
Also IFOCS is unlistenable in parts. It's got some gems but most of that album sounds like b-sides to me.
#200 Re: Guns N' Roses » Sixx AM Stars » 565 weeks ago
That solo was decent!!! Wah can make an average solo sound cool. Tone was good, but a lil low in the mix.. Do you want to hear Slash play like that?
Yeah I take it back. I was Jaded a few days ago on the slash front. Having heard the new album.... Well.... He's still on top for me.
More so than even buckethead after that one album
