Baz is more relevant than people want to admit. even if its for his status as a reality TV star. I think some people will be surprised when this album actually sells. The material is strong enough and he's been in the media and on MTV TRL and all that.

While not groundbreaking, this doesn't sound like 80's to me.
It sounds like early-mid 90's metal that Skid Row made on Slave To The Grind and Subhuman Race. And I think it stands up to that stuff that Skid Row did on those albums too, which is really good to hear, especially when Skid Row without Baz leaves allot to be desired...It probably won't get allot of radio play, but it'll certainly get allot of spins in my car and by others who appreciate good music like this in this genre.
yea this definitely stands up to old skid row.. and i agree, skid row today sucks pretty bad i checked out their myspace page and they did a punk remake of one of their classic songs and it was horrid
he is definitely bigger than Skid Row is without him.

Man what is up with constantly expressing how bad you think the song is?
I'm all up for one or two posts explaining your opinion, but damn, we get it. Lol.
This is definitely NOT going to affect Axl or the GNR situation at all. The way some of you guys talk make it sound like if you thought the songs were good Axl would personally notice and release Chinese Democracy ASAP. Axl was doing his friend a favor and having fun singing on another album. There is no way any negative reviews are going to affect Axl or the Chinese Democracy situation because there arent going to be any serious reviews that say "Axl was the reason this album sucked"... to be honest I doubt the reviews will mention Axl very much at all other than "Now if we could only get Chinese Democracy." And if you think THAT is going to make him "feel bad" and thus further delay the record, you're retarded! Lol. Axl did it for fun and the tracks sound fine for what they are.
quoted for truth..
some people need to read what Axl himself said about the whole thing one more time.
Bas asked me to sing on his new record, "Angel Down," and I agreed and came down to his studio where he played me the tracks. I really liked the title/opening track, "Angel Down," but I didn't feel that it would be right to be on that one, although, of course, it would've been cool because it's a great rip-your-head-off track!!
Since this session was rather a more fun atmosphere, the tracks I sang on kind of showed themselves and were also done out of curiosity on the part of Bas, myself, and his producer, Roy Z, just to see if my involvement brought something that worked for the tracks.
Bas really wanted me on "Bitchslap," and I got to try my own ideas on it. We're not saying much about the second track, as it may be taken a bit further, and when Bas played the third track, "Stuck Inside," he suggested a kind of call-and-answer part. They allowed me the freedom to write my own words and melodies, and although it's only a couple of lines, it really felt great. The song has such a mean riff, and Bas' guys were so supportive in so many ways on tour and fun to hang with, that it was great to be a part of something of theirs and I think it really came out strong.
For me, the three songs together are a good package. They are all different, with different approaches and styles from each other and from material I have on the upcoming Guns N' Roses record. For me, the timing couldn't be better and I'm quite surprised to be on one song, let alone three!!!
Bas really knew where he saw my involvement on his album and had different options in mind. He knew what seemed obvious, what would be fun, what would work for his album and what he felt I would like. I really liked the energy of the tracks and since I'm rarely asked to do anything I'd actually enjoy or be glad to be a part of, I'm more than grateful for the opportunity and hope the fans get a kick out of it as well.

yea, considering the quality of other rock music thats out today, I think this is pretty damn good.
#515 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stuck Inside » 921 weeks ago
I don't get the haters.
I do.. its the same people everytime. I could have made a list a month before this leaked of the people who wouldn't have liked this track regardless.
#516 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stuck Inside » 921 weeks ago
Yea I guess the riff has a little bit of an AIC feel to it. I've been playing it nonstop for the last 6 hours. I can't get over how amazing Axl sounds here.
#517 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stuck Inside » 921 weeks ago
Axl's got some good parts on this.
This is much better than i thought it would be.
Fucking right he does! Baz sounds good here too, I'd like the song without Axl. But Axl makes it amazing with that scream at the end..
i remember them playing this song live last year when I saw them... and my expectations weren't too high.. so I'm very happy right now and can't wait till Nov 20.:beer:
#518 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stuck Inside » 921 weeks ago
holy shit!! if the rest of the album is like this... it really is the album of the year!
#519 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bach talks about Axl on Angel Down » 921 weeks ago
besides, it sounds like they had a lot of fun recording these songs together.. and thats a good thing.

Ok I have the strangest addiction.
buying domains!
I bought 4 last night, and 3 on Tuesday. In the last month, I've bought around 20 of them. I can't stop!
Granted they do end up making money so its for a good reason, but everytime I think of a domain I get the uncontrollable urge to buy it, and I have some sitting around I'm never going to use.
what are your weird addictions?
