It's a pity there ain't new hard rock bands out there to fill the void.
I’d suggest both Metallica and Avenged Sevenfold if you’re looking for some good rock in the wait for new GN’R music.
Even though I know they’re not “new”, they both have new albums out this year, and they’re both great rock bands.
But back to your point, there aren’t any great new young rock bands carrying the torch.
And for the love of god, I hope no one brings up Greta Van Fleet as a young band to check out…

I read this before hearing it and it definitely skewed my opinion lol. Sounds like they were trying to do Spit Out The Bone again.
Ahhhh… sorry about that. It sucks to have a preconceived notion as to what something will sound like before actually hearing it, so I’m sorry again
First reviews of the album are appearing online, one rated it 8/10, the next said 7/10.
I’m trying to keep my expectations low, but I’m getting really excited to hear it in the cinema next week!

The new single premiers in full in just under 2 hours.
In the latest teaser, about 55 seconds long, it now reveals how it starts out all thrashy, but then by the time the vocals kick in, it turns into a kinda Sandman type hard rock song.
Apparently the full thing is over 8 minutes long, so we’ll see if it lives up to the hype.

Apparently it’s the title track. Last single being released before the album drops mid April

I came on board as a bit of a Swift fan via my wife and daughter, and I actually think her Folklore and Evermore albums are fantastic

Back on the topic of Axl with Carrie, I don’t really get it either. But like Monkey said, a “happy, appearing in public, and on stage” Axl is a good Axl to have, rather than a “disappearing for years recluse” Axl.
Here’s hoping that stuff like this, and the Glastonbury appearance, may mean we might get some new stuff this year…

Yeah, I don’t really liken Metallica playing with Gaga, to Pantera playing with Britney.
Sure, they’re both pop singers, but Gaga is every bit an artist in what she does. And really, she got up and added backing vocals to a Metallica song. It wasn’t as though they busted into Poker Face or something…

Calm down. I think you’re on the wrong forum buddy. Most of us here are quite fond of Chinese Democracy and don’t criticise the album like you seem to think we do?
And I think we’d all be fine with no more new music if they stopped telling us that they intend on putting out new music, and have actually recorded new music. But they keep saying that, so we keep asking about it.

I just want the proper follow up to UYI that we never got, now that Axl, Slash and Duff are back together, and have been for 7 years.
And yeah, you can say they don’t owe us anything, but their multi-million dollar lifestyles are a result of us fans buying their music and supporting them, and the least they could do is give us some new music, especially if they’re sitting on recorded and finished songs.
But clearly they don’t give a shit as long as the $$$$$ keep rolling in.
