Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Surprised this wasn't posted here but you can watch the video for Dirty Little Thing over at rollingstone.com and on www.velvetrevolver.com . The one on VR's site is better quality if you can find it on that fucked up site.  It is definately my favorite of the 3 videos....

excellent - thanks for that  : ok:

wow...it really feels like GNR 21st century.  I love that skull train.  It also makes me like the song more.

Yeah, it kind of make me get into the song more than before as well, and the video is really cool, lot more than the others... !!  :peace:

yeah, great video! 21st century GNR  :rofl:

I really like it...

I was a bit sceptical about the animation but it suits the video well..

 :P

the two first videos sucked. This one was cool, although slash looked kinda gay on that leather thing and Scott looks damn cool, even thought he is attempting to do the serpentine dance IMO. :hihi:

But overall it's a pretty cool video, the song is better than slither and fall to pieces in my opinion. They should've released it first.

great video. the band looked really cool in the end...

Pretty cool video. Thanks for the link Tomass74. :)

Thats such a cool video!!!

I liked it. :peace:

Decent video...Not crazy about the animation footage (see Jets new video for excellent animation) - Jellybeans style doesnt appeal to me much and the lack of detail in the environments turned me off - but the band looks great in the live footage, the Paris Hilton angle (particularly the last shot) is cool, and the song is amazing.  Id still call "Fall To Pieces" their best video so far, but this is better than "Slither." 

You know, i'm sick and tired of you depressed axl fans bringing down Slash and VR.  Try to enjoy the success of VR and we should all hope Axl can get his shit together too.  All the bullshit jealousy on this message board is uncalled for.  Look, we're all GNR fans.  Forget who's to blame for their break up.  Put it all in the past and enjoy the only bit or rock n' roll we have today.  Contraband is a great album but few have not really given it much of a chance because of prior negative dispositions towards old GNR members.  You know what, if you're a true Gunner, you'd be proud of Duff, Matt, and Slash. Enjoy the music.  It's the same guys most of you idolized growning up.  Ultimately, they are the true Guns N' Roses.  (Yes, please add Steven, Izzy, and of course, Axl). 

By the way, the new video is great and should be a hit if stations choose to play them.  I live in Miami and I can honestly say, I have not heard DLT on the radio yet.  Ridicoulous.  Miami rock stations are on the decline and we are desperate for some rock n' roll.  We need to continue to support rock n' roll!!!!! :peace:

Yeah , I have seen Slash in that thing before and agree it look spretty dumb.  HE dresses like boob often these days I am afraid.

Well you just opened a can of worms and probably ruined this thread.  No one bashed VR in here....Now you are gonna have some idiot crying about how VR fans are "hypocrites" and "it's funny how VR fans can bash Axl but Axl fans can't have an opinion" and then we will get a "  ::) " . Well, there we go hopefully I said it for them and we can talk about the video in this thread...

I really like the video. I wasn't crazy about the animation idea, but it's alright. It suits the band. They all look really good in that video, too.  :love:

The performance scenes I LOVE, the scenes with the girls remind me of a kid rock video and the animation is like a beavis and butthead cartoon.

Fall To Pieces was much better.

well the video didnt really sinc with the song to good, and it was always buffering  :no:

So i cant say what i think yet though. Great song....BETTER sell.

I really liked it. I did think what Slash was wearing was a little odd but hey he's still a badass guitarist and thats what matters : ok:
Scott's dancing didn't piss me off or anything in this video, I guess maybe he's growing on me.  :o

I actually thought the leather vest looked very cool (He wore the same thing on Conan O' Brien).  Coupled with the hat, he looked straight out of the GNR days. 

The animation reminded a little of the sleazy, Ralph Bakshi style of the '70s.

I thought that song sucked the first couple times I heard it on contraband but now its starting to seem pretty good and video FUCKING KICKS ASS!!!!!

yes!  That's why it felt like what a original Guns video would be, if it were made now.  It had all the visual elements: tophat, leather vests, skulls, a train you would ride while drinking nightrain with a bunch of raunchy people, and of course the Hollywood sign at the end.  Very over-the-top Sunset Strip style. 

I wasn't happy with choosing DLT for as a single, but I like the vid, it actually makes me like the song more.

Duff looks very cool in all black, with that black bass!

Only thing that would make it better would be if the song were Sucker Train Blues ...

I loved it, the video is killer the tune is awesome and the guitar solo along with the animation on the neck is cool.. dlt is the best rocker I've heard in a while..

those critizicing the animation clearly know shit about shit .  : ok:

It's reminiscent of Heavy Metal the animated movie as well as aeon flux, Kicks total ass.
 :peace:

the Fall to pieces video  is almost as cheesy as a motley crue video.
That scene when scott is "fighting" with duff comes straight out ot a soup opera cat fight.
Of course it doesnt help when the song itself is cheesy as hell. It's the only one I skip every time on contraband.

this video is great but FTP is still my favorite.

I think their plan was to make Sucker train blues the single and thats where the idea of the train came from but last minute they were advised that radio was not going to play STB because of the vulgar lyrics. So they went eith DLT, another song they love instead. I really like both STB and DLT so either is fine with me! :beer:

Great video, It rocks!!  Dirty Little Thing has a great riff and has been one of my favorite song since the album came out.  Better choice then STB.  Best video so far, cause it ROCKS!

wow! sexy video i kinda like animation bits more than i expected.
The VR videos, ive noticed, are all in great tune with the songs

yeah DLT is a better option for radio than STB. STB is more of a cool song for the fans to know and love. Kinda like Nightrain, rocket queen, It's so easy & Brownstone are to gnr.

Yeah, did you post in the wrong thread or something, aporro? I was reading it, then I came to your post and thought...what the fuck. It seems out of place, considering nobody was bashing VR, as tomass rightly pointed out  :P

Anyway

Excellent video! Loads of pretty colours n'...stuff.

Slash looking like a boob? He hasn't changed his style ever...I love it and really respect him for that!

Awsome video  : ok:

StoneTempleRoses

I'm surpised more people didn't chime in with a video.. Not everyone is a big vr fan but hey it's three ex gunners playing, and why not support it being they are on the rock scene..

I think "Slither" is still VR's best single and video so far.

I don't really care for "Dirty Little Thing" as a song all that much, but it's better than "Fall to Pieces."  The video is somewhat entertaining.  You can never go wrong with plenty of scantily clad beauties hangin' around.    :hihi:

No wonder Weiland's favorite GN'R song is "It's So Easy."  Seems like his main vocal range is the same as Axl's within that song...

not exactly, scott picks up his megaphone to match the intensity of axl's high pitch vocals near the end of the song.

how the hell do i get to the video in this fucked up site.

worst website design ever. :rant:

bloody hell it should be idiot proof so people like me can find it

 :hihi:

Ypu know, I fifnt really liked the video.And it sucks, cause DLT is one of my  favourite tuns of CB.The animatin is lame and the whole band all really close because the train is small looks ridiulos.VR is a band in wich every member needs it?s spot!!Anyway, it isnt THAT band and I can stand it cause I  love DLT.
Rock on VR!! :smoking: :beer:










Baby Slash//

I love the song, i love the video
the animation of the band at the end was hilarious!

Slither is still one of my least fav rockers on the album although i like it

DLT is amazing!

SLither was played alot tonight during the NBA allstar saturday night on TNT

I like the video! There is a great attitude in that song and the video gives a feel of danger into that.



the very end of the animation looks like "The Simpsons"  :)

he's been using a megaphone since the early 90's, was he trying to be like axl then too.. Geez you people have axl on the brain, it's a cover he doesn't have to sound like axl,

I love the fuckin chorus of this song

Best VR video behind FTP, in my opinion. I've only viewed it once, so that might change. I can't wait to see it on the tv. I liked it from the moment it started, and that train riding roughly along Slash's strings was fucking awesome. I kept thinking of an amalgam of RHCP's "Rollercoaster of Love," which is basically Beavis & Butthead, and yeah, the Simpsons. :yes:

 slither is still my favourite song so far, but I liked all of the videos. this one is so cool, I really hope this ends up on MTV, because it would kick ass! 8) :yes:

denial  : ok:

damn, you're killing me.. :hihi:

The videos keep getting better, in my opinion.  I loved this one, especially the skull train.  The only thing I didn't like is that I think they relied a little too much on T&A.  The original Guns N' Roses was always cool in that it didn't need lots of sexy women in its videos to get attention; the music did the speaking.

Well it IS a video for the song "Dirty Little Thing", and I would NEVER complain about a video that has that asian girl with the green top.   :o

I saw the video for the first time on VH1C and thought it was really awesome! lol

This video is one of the best I have seen in a while.  Does anyone know when they will play it on VH1 or MTV?  The video deserves all the airtime that it can get.

I love it. It's Rock! Slash guitar solo is awesome.  :o

Yeah that video rules.  I liked the other two, but this might be the best.  I thought the animated versions of the band were hilarious.  Slash looked as jacked as Barry Bonds, while Weiland looked more sickly than Mick Mars.  It's good to see some bands still know how to make a cool, entertaining music video.

fantasy land :hihi:

That clip of the two girls pumping on the manual powered train car (not sure what else to call it) seemed very simlar to that Burger King commerial, anyone else notice that?

That was a fucking mint song and video. thats given me 2nd thought s about buying contraband.

That video is really cool...  each video VR has released has impressed me more and more.  I didn't even like Dirty Little Thing that much originally, but now it's one of my favorites.  It's amazing what a little time and a little style does for a song. :)

I am glad about that. Me , my cousin and this girl I know all said that was our favorite song when Contraband first came out. It blew my mind that people weren't really digging it on boards but that seems to have changed. Contraband has a few songsvthat are "growers", those are the best albums. I used to hate "Do It For The Kids" but now I like it...

i'm sorry this video wasnt that great.

fall to pieces was the best. the editing, the filter used on the "vacation film" stuff was great. it has a great feeling. much more than this one.

come on they are 50 years old and they hang out with trashy hip hop sluts :(

Michael Jackson's neverland park  : ok: :hihi: :rofl:
