"Next Album" rumor / speculation thread *UPDATE AUG 22/2023*

[pilferk]

WTF¿¿?

Slash cat

OMFG, this is amazing!

[COMAMOTIVE]

Slash doing preproduction for Smkc is killer

Can’t wait to hear the new record - That Will-make 2 full length albums he has made since he rejoined GNR

Who knows with Axl ? I’ll believe it when i hear it ///

Slash doesn’t sit around and do nothing - The cat is a workaholic when it comes to guitar

Not for me. I find most of the material from that group repetitive and uneventful - though the live shows I've seen footage of is good.
Killer (In my mind) is Slash recording for this band - period.

I wonder if we will get an update on the status of the album.  Must be close to finishing it up.

Not to be a cynical asshole, but I'll believe it when it's in my hands.

Cool eh I was just being silly. I love it when people talk like jazz musicians, it's funny

I guess that I'm giving them the benefit of doubt with the covid 19.  If it doesn't come out by fall of 2021, then I will lose hope.

Yeah that’s about where I’m at too

All quiet on the album update...would be nice to hear something

Hear what?

Sorry, but what exactly are you hoping to hear? Once they have the details set in stone, and ready to say so, I'm pretty sure they will. Until then, I doubt they'll say something for the sake of having something to say...


Maybe it's a cultural thing. Some of us are from a different era when we didn't need to be told there's no update... We kinda figured when there was, we'd find out.

[rizzo160]

I hear you Jarmo, it's just be a long time since we got an update.

[jarmo]

We haven't really had any official update on the album. The only things we've heard have been band members talking about them working on new material.

We know there's material, we know they have recorded things. What we don't know is what will be released and when....

You've got friends in high places.  Take them out drinking.

You're gonna get Slash back off the wagon!

And what's the point anyway?  They have zero credibility on this particular front.

They want to tell me a tour is happening, here are the dates...I will believe them to be there playing a solid show for their fans.

They want to tell me they are "looking at things", or "trying to figure it all out" or whatever other happy horseshit they try and peddle on the topic of new material...meaningless.  Might as well just ask 5 people from this board.  Or 5 people off the street.  Whatever answer they give will carry about as much weight.

Actions not words.  Good guide for life.

There you go. Last time Axl spoke about what he hoped to do was in 2014, and you're still quoting it.

Hence why you don't give updates that'll be quoted forever if they don't pan out.

Better wait until there's a release date.

To be fair, I believe "trying to figure it out" was Slash's pearl of nothing.

Ah!

Glad you got a fresher quote!

It's the little things...

Slash quit drinking too?  Didn't know that.  Okay, lots of Starbucks coffee then.  Caffeine and sugar.  Don't know if he'll be able to shut them up. 

[rizzo160]

Be cool if we get a new album next year along with the box set of use your illusion.

Oh yeah, first in 2001 after he nearly died and got a defibrillator implanted, relapsed in VR and then quit for good back in 2007. Even quit smoking cigs in 2010 when his mother died of cancer.

Something like the Smashing Pumpkins would be cool, whatever it is :
