The tagline was used in 1985
That's intriguing.

This guy claims he's got sources saying a new album next year, 30-40 songs, with Axl in the studio right now!

Interesting. Does this guy have any modicum of credibility? I've always thought our best path to an album is a hybrid of Chinese leftovers, covers and various 'new' songs (could be rehashed 95-96 "Aerosmith on steroids"). Benny and the Jets?
And if that UFO cover is a barometer of whether Axl can still "bring it" in the studio.....hmmmmmmm
#3 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chin Dem Album lack o'f Bass, Village Demo, Anyone still Listen to LP? » 6 weeks ago
Yes it's pretty criminal. And on the songs where there a few rare moments where his bass cuts through, the basslines are really cool and interesting.
The whole thing is a mess -I love Chinese, but yeah it is so flawed. Victim of too many layers upon layers. The drums sound like shit for most of it too - all the life compressed out of them.

He looks fat and funky. Maybe it's the tucked in shirt?

The rot was already well advanced by the end of the Sopranos run.
The thing I hated about the Sopranos there towards the end is how you find out Carmine was right. It's not a family...it's a glorified crew. Tony doesn't nearly as much power as you assume he does in the previous seasons.
Dallas did this same thing. JR is a shell of himself those last few seasons. The guy who could bring the entire state of Texas to its knees can't even get himself out of an insane asylum. Its pathetic.
Yeah but that was kind of one of the points. It showed the decline which was mirroring (and still does) society. It was stark by the end for sure.

Only thing piqued my interest was that quote which i've never heard anywhere. Is it AI? Unbelievable. The grammatical errors and amateur presentation reeks of another TB special...
#7 Re: The Sunset Strip » Best Films of the 2000s » 41 weeks ago
Some that have not been mentioned:
The Pledge (starred Jack Nicholson; I think it was directed by Sean Penn) is a great film. Went under the radar a bit.
Traffic
Ghost World
Bad Santa
The Departed
The Prestige
Borat
Gran Torino
The Wrestler
The Sopranos is the greatest cinema of the era (and probably any era) although it's obviously a TV show...

Have you ever read the writing credits or backstory of the song? He wrote the “black armband” part.
In your defense he also wrote So Fine.
Fair enough re Civil War. Thats a good part.
I actually don't mind So Fine to be fair. Certainly nowhere near the worst off the Illusions albums.

All due respect to Duff, but it's a long bow to draw to suggest he has it in his locker to write something of the calibre of 'Civil War'...

Just did what I said I wouldn't do and watched it a second time. I don't hate it as much as the first viewing so maybe there's something to that...?
