#1721 Re: Guns N' Roses » Alternate artwork (NEW scans inside!) » 803 weeks ago
Wasn't the problem with the alternate version that securing the rights to all the artwork would've cost a packet?* And Merck/Azoff/Best Buy/whoever just wanted to rush-release the thing as part of the scheme to force Axl into a reunion...
*Mind you, that doesn't explain why there are copies out there. Which I would cheerfully gnaw off my own arm for, by the way.

FUCK YES. Definitely one of my top choices for the role, he has the voice, the songwriting abilities and the stage presence to front VR. Now, if only the guys would stop dithering, sign him up and get cracking on an Appetite-style angry rock album…
#1723 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumblefoot on vocals » 823 weeks ago
Thought u guys might like it! I usually dont like spoofs but this is good! Nice build at the end also.
I've been meaning to crank that again for aaaaages. I remember he came in for some stick for it when he first joined the band - crazy fans claiming he was disrespecting Axl or some shite like that...

Well, who the fuck is it, then? 
#1725 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SLASH Says we should be making an announcement sometime in January » 823 weeks ago
Arse. Oh well. Probably Corey Taylor, then.
#1726 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SLASH Says we should be making an announcement sometime in January » 823 weeks ago
Jesus, I wonder could it actually be Chester Bennington? IIRC Slash or Duff made some reference to not wanting to poach him from Linkin Park and his solo project; now the solo project's over and done with, he could have the time to spare… Are LP active or recording atm?
He's been my top choice from the outset, it'd be awesome if he got the gig.
#1727 Re: Guns N' Roses » The concert intro... is The General. » 826 weeks ago
Ironically, outside of GN'R i've never been a big fan of Marco Beltrami's work. Dimension Films lifted his work on "Scream" and interjected it into "Halloween H2O", absolutely butchering a perfectly wonderful orchestral score by John Ottman. I also thought Beltrami's "Terminator 3" score was absolutely terrible and a slap in the face to the franchise.
Terminator 3 was an absolute donkey of a film, yeah - and one of the many marks against it is that the producers ditched the iconic Brad Fiedel score in favour of an orchestral one. That would've sucked no matter who'd done it, so I can't really blame Beltrami for it.
As for If the World as a faux-Bond theme, I've always seen Prostitute as that - mainly for that chord change after the lines "To give what you have/for what you might lose". That's so Bond-theme it's untrue.
#1728 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » VELVET REVOLVER Zeroing In On 'Younger And Stronger' New Singer - Dec. » 826 weeks ago
or Corey Taylor
Yeah - and he's actually more likely, given how much he's been hanging around with Camp Freddy recently. He doesn't have the Scott vibe, but he's certainly got the vocal chops.
#1729 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » VELVET REVOLVER Zeroing In On 'Younger And Stronger' New Singer - Dec. » 826 weeks ago
Please let it be Chester Bennington...
Still the only guy who marries Scott's general vibe with an Axl-ish vocal range, as far as I'm concerned.
#1730 Re: Guns N' Roses » Fernando's link to leaks? And the craziness that is gnr » 827 weeks ago
Wished it hadn't. That's a FAR better tracklist.
Er, we haven't heard five of those songs. How can we possibly say it's a better tracklist?
