Tracks that will most likely be on CD, ones that have been confirmed by people

[AxlVedder]

Here is what I can tell you about I.R.S.:

Last August I was driving home, late at night, around midnight, give or take a half hour, I don't remember exactly.

Eddie Trunk had Mets catcher Mike Piazza on the show. Mike had a CD he got in his fan mail. This CDR had "Guns N' Roses, I.R.S." written on it. Being a regular guest on the show, he brought it on and Eddie gave it a spin...

I missed the first little bit of the song, as I had no idea it was coming. I caught a nice chunk of the songthat I caught, but I don't know how much I missed. From the begining, I liked the song, I was digging it, though I found it sounded just like Axl Rose. At this point I was very excited. I was sure it was them, but I couldn't confirm it and then the song ended. When it was over, Trunk said, "That voice sounded familiar, didn't it?" followed by" That's a new one from Guns N' Roses, called I.R.S."
At this point, I actually had to pull the car over because I was that excited. I know, very childish, heheh, but come on, do you blame me?
The song itself was very good. Though, it sounded like it may not be a finalized version of it, and even so, it was better than most of todays "finished" music. Axl sounded great on the album, and I can relate his vocals to the end half of "Estranged." I don't know many music terms, but I will try to explain things the best I can.
The vocals, as I said, reminded me of Use Your Illusion Axl, as did the mood of the songs. It wasn't Appetite GNR. The part of "Estranged" where the lyrics go "Now that you've been broken down..." is what his vocals reminded me of. Also, I guess the end part of "Coma" was similar to the singing style.
The music itself had a slight NIN feel to it, as there was some effects done on computer or keyboard. I wouldn't say it was "Closer" but it sounded like something Trent Reznor would have on an album.
Having that been said, I am not trying to say it sounded just like a NIN song, it just had some influence.
The guitars were very well done, as was the drum beat.
If I knew about it, I would have that sucker on a cassette, but there was no way of knowing.

Maybe somewhere on this board, a million pages ago, the old posts may still be there, though I doubt it, that is, for those interested.

I'm sure some people here remember the days of this topic, and if any of them want to add to this that would be cool.

You must be bored out of your mind. I gather that perhaps you are not satisfied with what GNR has given you and you want Axl to hand it to you right now. I hear "Paradise City" is an awesome track off an "ancient artifact" album from 1987 called Appetite for Destruction.

Happy New Years Dave
I hope Axl can finally fulfill your fantasies in 2005.

MNR

If it means being satisfied with Velvet Revolver has come up with, or continuing to wait for Chinese Democracy, I'll stick with the latter...

beautiful... gets my hopes up reeeeeeeal high

[norway]

yeah, musta been cool to get that suprise

[younggunner]

how would you cpmpare/rate it to maddy,cd and the blues?


I usually listen to that show...and I was pissed that I missed it. One of the only times I missed that show. I wish I opculd have brought all of you a review of that song.

But I think the end is near...

Its gonna be a fukin absolute amazing day when that CD is released......

[AxlVedder]

To answer younggunners question, it was a different type of song than the other three for the most part. Out of the three it is closest to "Madagascar" though each one of the four are unique in their own awesome ways.
It is possible to say that they all follow a similarity in which the band performs them, as with most songs. With each of the songs, you can pick out exactly who is doing which part, which is great to know, I can feel the chemistry as I listen to them.

yeah... it seems like the release of CD is/will be more important than the music itself
