What will the next album have as Songs ?

[GNR_Green]

I am hoping to hear "Ides of March." It seems like an 'interesting'  name for a song

If it's as good as Iron Maiden's Ides of March then yes 

The question is how much material does Axl have that is several years old.  CD probably consists of music written over something like a 15-year period so I wonder if there's anything that he's kept back?  Knowing Axl it will be a bit of a mix of styles.  It'll also be interesting to see which band member can step into Buckethead's shoes - he had a big influence on the music and sound the CD.

Ides of march might be a cover  who knows

[Judas Fuckin Priest]

I really hope the next album has nothing to do with "electronic" sounds and poppy drum-based like Shackler's Revenge,  Better, TWAT o If The World. I'd love the album keep that classic style used in songs as Cathcher / This I Love and, if it's going to Rock, well, they write song as Sorry, CD or IRS. ENOUGH electronic and industrial incluences!! that it is NOT the best side of Axl Rose.

Im guessing the band will go to the studio and record a whole new album with Ashba and Bumblefoot guitars only. No Bucket or Robin, and maybe put in 1 or 2 songs from the chinese democracy recording era that will fit in the album.
After that same release in 2011, the band will tour on it and concentrate on it for another 2 years and on the third year which would be 2014 they will release another album with some more chinese democracy recording era songs again in small doses joined up with the new band's material.

Its the way i think its gonna happen but i could be wrong!

Sounds like a plan.  When do you think a good time to hit the studio would be?

I would definitely want to hear more songs like TWAT or Better, that is up with with SCOM or NR

[Judas Fuckin Priest]

Good for you, but I want to ROCK not "dance".

You clearly have no idea what dance music is if you think Shacklers, Better, TWAT and If the world is dance music. Shacklers and Better are two of the best rockers on CD and TWAT and ITW are incredible slower songs.

^ Well said, cb.

I just cant understand how those kind of comments are still used 2 years after the release and even more after OMG, the live performances and even the leaks. That is plenty of time to deal with it and to either accept or just move on.

I do hope we have a new album with the CD sound. Afterall, it isnt Judas Priest or anything, it actually evolves.

[Manets]

I think this actual line-up is awesome, and I think they should compose and record an album, but before that I want to listen what's left from the Finck-Bucket era. The General, Atlas Shrugged, this songs are already legends! I HAVE to listen to then. And Guns N' Roses is a band with excellent musicians, it doesn't matter the route they take, it will sound awesome.
Like Bon Jovi, has Glam Rock, Hard Rock, Pop Rock and Country albums. You may not like all of them, but they are musically great and excellent albums in their each own genre. They have also even Grunge and New Metal songs, and they all sound great.

That's the case of Guns N' Roses, with so much tallented, excellent musicians, it doesn't matter the way music goes, it will sound awesome.

[Judas Fuckin Priest]

In my opinion, if Chinese Democracy did not became in a GREAT record is due to these pop/industrial/tecno elements involved in several songs. It seemed the mix of styles of the writers didn't help to achieve a solid Rock album. I think that CD is a very good record, but not good enough to get the "Classic / Can't miss it" status.

don't want bother yoo guys, I know you believe that CD is the best record ever, is just my feelings.

I dont like rhiad and the bedouins ....i hope there are not more song like that one.

it's just a rumor

[bangit]

"Daddy, can the devil do mummy and me?"

Got to be one of the funniest rumoured titles for a song i've ever heard lol   

I think that whatever follows CD will be similar in musical theme given they  were probably recorded at a similar time as part of the whole CD sessions process. A collection of rockers, longer ballads, some industrial songs etc... The variety is the main reason i respect Axl so much as a musician and follow Guns so avidly.

I would like to see a cover of 'Rosie', that would be quality.

I really hope we don't get any leaks or certainly not as many as before, i wont be listening this time it did somewhat ruin the experience of CD for me.

The main thing is that we get to hear some new music!

The song sounds good,but im not sure if its axl or not,sounds like him.....but with a lot of effects.

[Voodoochild]

What song?

Also, this thing "Daddy, can the devil do mummy and me?" was an obvious reference to Oh My God and the crappy movie End od Days wich has a scene like this.

I dont like rhiad and the bedouins ....i hope there are not more song like that one.

I dont like you and I hope you are wrong (actually Im sure you are).

Axl and his old friends released Rosie as a live recording on some ep.

[bangit]

thought that was just a boot from the marquee in 87?

[svdv22]

Not a boot, it was officially released

[One.In.A.Million]

I really want to hear what's left from the Finck-Bucket era too. 

But I also want to hear what this band can come up with as well, I imagine Bumble has some cool ideas. I think my perfect next album would be a majoritarily of material from the Finck-Bucket era, with a few teaser songs from this band. This would set up very nicely, the next album being one, recorded heavily by the recent line-up. With again maybe a couple of songs from the 06/07 era, when Robin, Richard, Bumble and Brain was recording together (maybe some stuff that never made Chinese Democracy).

First,you dont need to speak to me like that. And after all the titles you have 27 secs of a song.
