Haven't listened to GnR for years....got the debut album (absolute classic) and the "Lies" EP (awesome)...they went crap after that.

It's a leaked track from their eternally-delayed album, Chinese Democracy.

They should just stick to the sound that they had before.:(:confused::annoyed:

Jesus christ, this is god awful. I really wish things with Izzy, Slash, and Duff worked out... I know GnR wouldn't be sounding like this. Don't care about Steven Adler because he was a wastoid... pretty much any drummer could have done his job, although I did like his attitude.

I have no use for the attitude that artists should not change and move forward, that they should never take risks or attempt some kind of transformation. Great moments can't be recaptured -- they can only be imitated. I prefer the real thing -- in this case, the perfect Appetite for Destruction -- to an imitation, and I applaud Axl for trying something different.

Too bad it stinks like poo.

No, that's really not GNR. That's Axl trying to reclaim the glory of his past.

I see your point its just that after waiting, what seems like 10-15 years, for them to release something new, and getting really excited about it, and after it turns out to be crap I just wish that they would stick to the sound that thay had before. And I agree that sometimes it is good that bands try something new.:(:confused:

Why do I keep reading "they"? The band of GNR is now Velvet Revolver. This is Axl Rose refusing to move on to something new with his musical career...

You're right Axl Rose is delusional if he thinks that the so called new GNR is going to be anywhere near as good as the old GNR.

I couldn't have said it better myself. That is excatly what it is.

People can slag off new G'N'R until the cows come home, still don't change the fact that they are more technically able than the originals. Take this version of Nightrain for example (listen to the whole thing and not just thirty seconds), f**k me Robin Finck and Bumblefoot annihilate Slash and Izzy.

Okay, the new s**t might not be all that but live they cannot be denied. I've seen both incarnations twice and the very last time I saw them was the best by miles.

I actually liked this new track by the name of "Better" ... however, all the other leaked tracks from last year were utter sh*te on a stick made of sh*te.

It's not true GnR, it's Axl with a cover band adding some new (literally) sh*t to their track list.

Axl should have just let it lie and go and do something else instead - and whatever that might have been, done it quicker ... and hasn't he had plastic surgery recently? I remember seeing a photo and he looked a bloody shock! :eek:

I agree artists should evolve and move forward, musically, but keep the same friggin formula, at least!!! I can't stand when bands change they're formula and can't pull off the new one.

GnR were a rock n roll band... this new stuff is NOT rock n roll.
