What would you like to see?

If VR do record a new album, I guess it's safe to assume that it'll be the last one. I'm hoping they stretch their creative muscle a little more this time. I'd like something a little more challenging and offbeat then the straight forward (albeit excellent) Libertad.

Thoughts?

I hope there's even more than one more album to come! They're one of the only good bands around today. I hope on the next album they'll be a bit more adventurous and let Slash dominate a little bit more. More songs like 'Messages' please.

I would like to have an album full of more songs like "Let It Roll". Straight ahead rock with a ton of Slash riffing and, as I had already hoped for with album numero 2, way more solos. And alot more Duff. He is kind of absent on a lot of Libertad. Doesn't play bad at all, but doesn't stand out anywhere particuarly. And maybe have him sing something too. I would love it if VR had a song like "Good News" from the Neurotic Outsiders on the next album with Duff singing.

I would like to see a third as well as I feel they are getting better with each album.  I am not counting that there will be a third one...but one can only hope

If there is a third album, it will be more like Contraband.

Hopefully they won't bow to pressures from the record label when making this album.

I'm not sure what you mean by that? Because anyone in the music industry will tell you that the label would have wanted a record like Contraband as the second album, seeing as how Contraband sold so well.  Why do you think SBQM was the first single?  The record label beleives VR's was because Contraband was a mass-appealing album and probably demanded or preferred the same record again.  But obviously no musician with any respect for himself wants to repeat themselves on the next album, but be more creative and try different things.

So the latest album has only been out for about three months and people are already looking forward to the next one.

I guess Libertad was that good that you can't wait to hear more of the same?

Or not?


Either they just record one very quickly after the tour is over, or there'll be solo projects and then a new VR album in a few years.

I'd guess it'll be the latter.

Who knows if they wanna record another album at that point and just go for some kind of compilation instead.

I guess it depends on the contract they have with RCA.

with the success of Contraband, chances are RCA extended the contract for another two albums. I doubt the label will drop them, so its really up to the guys if they wanna do another. Like you said, if they want out of the contract, they'd probably release a b-side, live, or best of album.

I don't think you understand what he means. Once you've got the album, and listened to it a couple times, you already know what you have. Yes, you do continue to listen to the album, but there is also excitement in wondering what the bands next album will sounds like. Like he said, its something to look forward to.

He said the day after the release.

How many times does he listen to the album in that day?  Huh

That's true, they are lacking, but if you go into the album with specific expectations, chances are they wont be met.   Is a song any worse if the guitar solo is 5 seconds shorter? Although the solo could make it better.  And I don't know, some of  GNR's good riffs werent just written by Slash, his specialty was more of the heavier riffs, which is what he's been doing in VR, so I think he's been consistent in that manner.

The only complaint I have is the predictable arrangements of intro, verse, prechorus, chrous, verse, prechorus, chorus, bridge, solo, chorus. Almost every song on libertad follows that arrangement, and it so easy to identify each part, you know automatically whats coming next.

Not enough Slash solo? Get real, what do you expect? him to solo all over the song? Sure, he could maybe have 2-3 solo breaks like he did in most GNR songs. But again, that is due to the repetitive arrangement.

That is my EXACT complaint too, the arrangements.  Lot of great riffs, melodies, basslines, etc.....but the actual construction of the songs is a bit lacking, with a little extra effort and time spent in this particular regard a lot of these songs could have felt a lot more unique and special.

The band was there before Scott, and I think it will be there if he leaves. Typically, 3rd albums have been some really great stuff.

I think it might be good to "record one very quickly after the tour is over." It may be best not to over-think it and just do a record quickly.
