This is what really brings him down several notches in my book. He used to be #1 on all my lists in my youth...now he's lucky if he can crack the top 10.
He didn't have anything to say about the massive cultural shift of the 21st century. That just blows my mind. Like you said, anything "new" is from a time capsule when he was dealing with Slash and Steph shit and couldn't get over the implosion of GNR.
This is the biggest issue IMO. Axl is a really good songwriter, he's an astute observer of the world and its prevailing political, social and cultural trends… and he has had nothing to say lyrically since the early '00s. To take a random example: when he was ranting about Trump on Twitter, why wasn't he channeling that into a song? Why isn't he writing about the state of the world now, instead of the state of his relationships in 2001?
I remember an old interview Axl saying he wasn´t be similar to Iron Maiden due to the lyrics. Rock n Roll shouldn´t be used to talk about POLITIC issues...

Abd finally, i think CD has great songs that could fit perfectly with the illusions era... Chinese, Better, Shackler, Prostituye, CITR, Street of dreams etc
#193 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General confirmed next » 164 weeks ago
By the way.... When do you think The General will leak?
#194 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General confirmed next » 164 weeks ago
I think CD IS a very good álbum. The problem was the delays, people waiting for AFD II etc.
If It would be released under Axl Rose brand and not GNR reviews would be better for sure.
Leftovers? I dont believe in them. There was a plan for three albums. Seven, the general, and many others must be good songs... Not new november rains or WTTJ, but good songs.
I'd like they release an album with the best off that era with Slash and Duff contributions and after that NEW MUSIC composed by them tohether.
I have no doubts about Slash, Duff, Axl capacity of making great songs tohether.

Great great song!!!
Is not that song property of Tommy? I mean... Could GNR put out that song without Tommy's permission?
No they wouldn't put it out without his permission and besides...they won't ever release that song.
If a lightning bolt from beyond strikes and they decide to release a song with Duff on lead vocals, it won't be a Stinson song. The band would probably just whip up a song from scratch.
Let's be honest...neither of those two scenarios will happen.
If you're lucky, the song will get released years from now on some sort of Chinese box set.
What a shame! For me It has a great potential

Tommy got the rights back for both his songs a while ago...
Then it's not available for Axl to release it at least he does a cover i guess
