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

[PermissionToLand]

it gave me the idea of searching on Google "worst GNR song" and the first link :

1. Bad Apples – Use Your Illusion I (1991)

What exactly are Guns trying to do here? It’s hard to tell. My suspicion is that they thought this tune was casually nodding at those messy Stones songs that made Exile On Main Street such a raggedy-assed joy. The problem is that nothing – really nothing – comes together here. The band sound like they’re more interested in forgetting the whole thing, downing tools and rolling a big fat one. I for one would have been 100 per cent behind that idea.

Of course, that could have something to do with the word "Bad" being in the title of the song and how Google's algorithm works.

Google gives me the first result "Anything Goes" and second result "My Michelle"!

Uusually My World is ranked at the worst GNR song.

Yes, and I'm saying Google may associate the word "worst" with the word "bad". Their algorithm is more complex than just searching for the specific words you enter.

That link also lists Perfect fucking Crime and Dead Horse as their worst songs so I think that speaks to the credibility of it.

since the band will tour the world I suppose it's safe to say no new album will come this year, so how about re-recording all the best Chinese leftovers with the actual band on a good old two-inch 16-track Scully tape machine? no need Axl since the vocals are there since quite some time and the band could manage to find the time between dates/legs of the tour, giving a new refreshing energy to the stuff.

I have always liked Bad Apples. It has one of the best lyrics ever--"got a headache like a mother twice the price of my thrill." That has been too many Saturday mornings for me!

I also like My World. It's not the best song, but it is catchy.

On the other hand, Absurd is easily the worst song GNR ever recorded.

IMO.

[sworrm]

I hate Bad Apples , like Absurd 🤷🏻‍♂️. Different strokes for different folks eh 🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏽

I wonder if there’ll ever be a new record?

First of, you need to define "a new record".

Let's say they'd put out a new album next week with Absurd, Hard Skool and other tracks that's been worked on since the reunion happened, would that be "a new record" or would you just use the old "Chinese Democracy leftovers" routine?

[DeN]

new record, doesn't matter when the songs were written/recorded.
that's the date of official release who defines what's new.


next week sounds good to me 

[jarmo]

If it was like that for everyone... Things would be less interesting. 

Everyone wants new music and then they decide the music's not new enough and start from the beginning of wanting new music. 

I'm only half joking by the way.

That's 100% a joke, some other parts are 50%. Wait, that's 150%!

Most times Jarmo is serious as (Whatever serious is)...and now he is joking and cryptic....

The General starts now !

Let's say I can live with some new song titles (no remastered old songs....just the songs that come with Hardskool and Absurd)

Or maybe you just haven't paid close attention. I'm not serious when I'm joking and when I'm serious I can be sarcastic....


The whole "we want new music" thing does bring back memories of people saying similar things and then the band releasing two singles. Then seeing comments like "but these songs are old Chinese Democracy leftovers".....

The serious part is the definition of new music, because it seems like everyone has their own ideas of what that means. And depending on it, it might dictate when/if your wish might come true.

Also, you want a new album? Nightrain fan club members are getting a new album with their membership packages this year! An exclusive live album. Hey, it's a new album!

This is the first I've heard of a live album - any details? Physical or download?

It's a physical CD.

The details are still a mystery.
