The General being released (perhaps B-side)

[jarmo]

There's talk in Gunner circles that the Perhaps vinyl with The General as a B-Side is being delayed one week out from shipment.

@jarmo: Is there anyway to confirm or contradict this?

Is this because of the German merch store listing a different date for the 7"?

I haven't heard of a delay.

May have been. There was also an Italian connection to the rumor.


Thank you for your response jarmo.

The magic 8 Ball has been delayed until December 1st.
Who knows if that affects shipping of the vinyl

The vinyl has been listed as delayed in some markets per reports.


Also the songwriting credits have Brain on the track... Axl, Duff, Slash. A couple of guys I've never heard of... and it's listed as  The General and Monsters.

[kyrie]

Steve Freeman and Marc Haggard are the other writers credited on The General

Or The General and Monsters as it is listed

[PermissionToLand]

Suddenly Axl's outfits on SCOM make sense...

That makes sense that other accompanying merchandise get delayed perhaps due to production issues.

Its going for the Christmas No.1 slot... General Santa remix version.

 I'm happy that Axl is releasing material, although I believe he has a full album and that it would come out this year. I listen to my CD playlist almost every day. Put the sequence

1- Chinese
2- Shacklers
3- Absurd
4- Better
5- ITW
6- TWAT
7- HARD SK.
8- Sorry
9- Perhaps
10- Maddy
11- The Blues
12- Catcher
13 - TIL
14 - Prostitute

The CD is much more cohesive, the songs excluded as B-Side

Nice stack! I'm going to lineup a playlist in that order but I'm going to swap SOD for RIAD. May even slide Scraped in there somewhere.

Never really liked The Blues/SOD.

I've realized I'm in the minority but I absolutely love RIAD. Best heard with good legit headphones; so much going on.

I've come to appreciate Scraped as well since listening through headphones.

Ok..I'm confused. Can't read through all these pages.
Am I going to be able to hear the general on Friday without buying the vinyl.....or not?

No one knows so far. (Well, Jarmo must know  )

[younggunner]

Patiently waiting to hear the track

[PermissionToLand]

Guys, I got my hands on the vinyl and it's actually a 3 minute ad for Dollar General. The solo fucking rips though.

I think so because it’s going to be uploaded anyway so if I were releasing that I think doing it at the same time as the vinyl release makes sense

Can you confirm it was actually sung by The General from those insurance commercials with Shaq?

[Bodhi]

My email also says if they don’t ship it by 11/22 and you have not responded that you want to keep your order it will be canceled automatically. I already responded.  Just giving a heads up to those that ordered it to respond so it doesn’t get canceled without them knowing if there is another delay.
