Didnt Slash said that over 15 years ago? Just because Axl brought it up in 2002 tour doesnt mean Slash cant change his mind in all that time.  

[Slashly]

Yeah, that?s true.Who knows, maybie Slash loves ballads now.Or the best solos he does are from ballads....
Well,  untill he says something about it we?ll never know what does he prefer now...



Baby Slash//

Way to try and pick a fight Dave.

If he hated them so much he certainly wouldnt have made them for this album.  Slash can change in his mind, and sometimes Axl might not always be telling the complete truth

[TempleOfRoses]

I've heard You Got No Right and Superhuman.  Slash's solo in superhuman is pretty killer and the song is pretty balladly, I know that has been said already but hey, thats the truth.  You Got No Right is excellent, Slash has a great solo in the middle of it, but there isnt as much soloing in it as there was at the Smashbox small set they did.  Either way, Scott's vocals and lyrics on both songs are outstanding, 2 great tunes that havent been played yet on the tour.

I've been here a lonnnnnnnng time and I rarely post but don't think I don't know what goes on here...everyone should just face it.  He's way to bitter about Slash, Duff, Matt whoever to have a real opinion on these subjects.  Take his replies with a grain of salt.

There you go again with a useless post just trying to annoy people and ruin a good post. Who the fuck cares if Slash didn't like playing ballads 15 fucking years ago. But you know what?? He was in a band where some people wanted to do them so he went along with it. It's part of being in a band. Maybe he has grown and changed and digs ballads now. Or maybe he still doesn't like them but Duff or Scott or someone does. Who the fuck knows and why do you have to turn it into something negative.

[DOASHK]

wasnt superhuman supposed to be a harder song?
i think some people labled superhuman wrong- its reallly loving the alien

[jarmo]

Who the fuck cares if Slash didn't like playing ballads 15 fucking years ago.

The same people who still are upset about Steven being fired, Izzy leaving the band and the St. Louis riot?

 Its funny a lot of the reasons slash left gnr he is doing in VR.

He's in VR because Axl's not. It's that simple.  


According to Slash in 1995, Axl wanted to be Pearl Jam, maybe Slash wants to be Stone Temple Pilots? Those two don't mix.

[Top-Hatted One]

the 3 songs I heard:
Superhuman - 4/5-the best way to desribe it is that is is a Sweet Song very mellow with a beautiful riff and solo. It's not the sappy piano type ballad. The vocals and the medolies sound more like Oasis/Beatles and a little Pink Floyd. And I'm loving the lyrics!

You Got No Right - 5/5 - sounds brilliant! Better than Fall To Pieces but without the repeating riff but it has one hell of a pretty long solo! The best solo I've heard from Contraband so far!

Sucketrain Blues - 5/5 - this song will be a huge hit!!!!!!! If not a huge commercial hit...it will be a huge hit amongst VR fans!! This song has everything...the energy is like nothing I've ever seen before! What separates this from Right Next Door To Hell is that STB has way better production which is why it might be a single! It's got an awesome Intro with sirens...Scott's layered vocals as he used to do in STP! I can see it already when the first verse kicks in the crowd is gonna go nuts! then it has an awesome chorus and a solo that really gets you going setting you up for the ultimate finish! Scott Vocals are vintage STP only he sings the versus soooo fast! You literally fell like you're riding on top a train at 200 miles an hour!!

Suckertrain Blues has confirmed to me that this album is not the average middle of the road album you usually get from supergroups or old reunited bands. Velvet Revolver is Guns N' Roses version 2.0! and I honestly believe they will make a huge impact in the music industry much like GN'R did!

I can't wait til June 8th so I can Blast contraband in my car. That is if my speakers make it past Suckertrain Blues. I can't wait til Wednesday when I get to here STB live in NYC!!!!!!!!!!!

[Top-Hatted One]

There's a chance that Superhuman was
Loving the Alien(Sometimes) because from all the way the band described Superhuman it seemed like more of a Rocker. And my description of Loving the alien sounds the same as the band's.

[Eugene Klein]

 I have heard 12 of the 13 songs, and i've been impressed by 8 of them, not bad.

• Suckertrain Blues  
• Do It For the Kids    
• Big Machine
• Ilegal I                  
• Spectacle
• Fall To Pieces        
• Headspace          
• Superhuman
• Set Me Free            
• You Got No Right  
• Slither                  
• Loving The Aliens

Dirty Li'll Things got to be a Rocker i HOPE

[LovedAlien]

Yeah, that copy of Superhuman was mislabeled, it's actually Loving The Alien (Sometimes).  You can tell it's a mistake because in the song he says 'Sometimes' over and over, and near the end he sings 'Loving The Alien'.  Superhuman is actually one of the harder songs, and is probably one of the album's best.
