Here Today... Gone To Hell!

For those that don't check Matt's forum i thought that some people might want to hear this as it sounds cool to me.

Matt posted:

HAD A GREAT DAY IN DRAC STUDIOS TODAY WORKING WITH DUFF ON SOME SONGS,
WE ARE COMING UP WITH SOME BREAKTHROUGH STUFF.
I'M GETTING EXCITED.
ONE SONG SOUNDS LIKE ACROSS BETWEEN ZEPPELIN AND PRINCE
WHICH DUFF LOVES PRINCE.
GREAT RIFF FOR SLASH.
TODAY WE DID ONE THAT IS VERY HEAVY WITH A SICK GROOVE.
WITH SOME SYNTH KEYBOARD PART. ALA A BAND CALLED REFUSED
WHO WE ALL DIG.

I'm lookin forward to this album, Contrband sounded like they wanted to stray away from the Guns sound to prevent alienating Scott....I think we will hear more of what we loved in Guns on this record

Can't wait. I wonder when it's coming out?  :beer:

Theyre growing very high expectations.
Hopefully they can deliver it too  : ok:

Prince meets zepplin, was never a big fan of prince in general but he can play guitar very well.. I am just glad they are giving a play by play as they work.. nice to get the feel of what is going down.. It's a fan's dream, well at least mine to have the band share as they create..

Matt sounds very enthusiastic about it. I remember they mentioned one of Refused's albums as a favorite a couple of years ago, because of the drum work.

This sounds great. I had a feeling their second album would be amazing, and Matt's description makes me really anticipate this album. Even though I didn't like CB, I knew these guys could come up with something great. I think CB was rushed, and thats why it isn't as good as it could've been.



An observation: I've noticed that people completely ignore me in this section. I guess I've pissed off all the VR freaks who didn't like some of the things I said in the GNR section.

I don't think anyone is ignoring you, there's just nothing to respond to.. Well just like the new gnr has their freaks this section has em too.. I hate nutty one side fuckers anyways

Are you saying my posts aren't worthy of a response? :hihi:

But I dont say much in the VR section, so I can see why people just ignore my posts. I pretty much say the same thing anyways: Didnt like CB much, but looking forward to the next one. I'm like a broken record over here. :hihi:

didn't mean it like that..

I'm not a keyboard synths guy, hope it's to a minimum.. I just want guitar rock

Sounds grrrrreat :beer:

The Prince meets Zep thing is very intriguing. I've never heard anyone describe their material using those two as references. All these years of everyone saying how Axl was gonna break new ground with CD, it would be funny if VR ended up being the ones that did it. :hihi:

Strangley enough this could end up being the case!! The VR record could end up being what every1 expected CD to be

Depends what kind of synth. Not all are cheesy. I would love to hear demos of some of the stuff their working on. Matt is a good songwriter i believe.

sounds promising.. way to go guys..  :peace:

I'm Very Intrigued.

Prince = Funkier
Zep = Kick Ass, Straight up, Rock n' Roll

Rocket Queen anyone?

That sounds ........."Danceable" :nervous: :)

James, Paisan, I hear ya.  I agree with what you said, but I do like Contraband.   Eventhough I like it, I admit it was rushed and could have been much better.  However YGNR and Slither sound pretty good for the short amount of time.

slither to me is fucking awesome ,just the way the song starts of is great, the song is energy and rocks like a mofo..  I never get tired of cranking it in the car

Yeah, I really like that song also. The last time there was a family get together, all kinds of different music was being played. I put on CB and played Slither, and even my little cousins were digging it. The next time my whole family gets together like that, I'm gonna play all these new GNR demos and see the reaction.

That's cool... My family would be like mike still stuck in the 80's we see, I can't believe you are still chasing that nut axl rose around..  That would be more my cousins in their mid to late 30's..

Sounds great to me, I think the one thing CB was missing most was varieties, this is why the next album sounds great with lots of experimentation on it.

And it was a good sign that he said there was a great riff for Slash on there.

sounds like he`s trying to build up anticipation...

i hope VR`ll deliver a great record this time... zeppelin sounds cool to me :peace:

They mentioned Refused in interviews before Contraband was released too....


"Illegal Eye,"...McKagan compares to "a Refused song, like an older punk rock song."

Remains to be seen if it's that much different from Contraband.



/jarmo

Well aside from the Refused influence, I think a Zeppelin/Prince style song would be quite different to Contraband, I don't really recall anything on CB to sound like Led Zeppelin.

Really looking forward to this album. :beer:

I have heard a couple peopel say that but I really don't see it... I thought there was alot of variety. There were straight up Gunsish hard rock tunes like STB and DLT.. Then there classic acoustic and almost psychadelic tunes like Alien and YGNR.  STPish songs like Ilegal I song and Big Machine.  Cheese like FTP lol....  I definately find Superhuman quite unique also...

That being said, I think we will see alot more on the next album...
