Re: SOG single coming?
Apparently ballad of death is now showing up.
Ugh...not a good sign at all. That's the equivalent of one of the Buckethead tracks showing up.
My hope is fading. It really is the damn algorithms.
When is the new November Rain single expected to drop? Was there an announcement about it or where did the information come from about a new recording of November Rain?
Probably November... that's when it's released.
The info on November Rain was in the press release.
It's new orchestra pasted into the old track.
I hope they did it properly.

This something you've heard or you just speculating like the rest of us?
Just speculating, there's nothing anywhere, even interviews are locked down, have been for months
Spotify search works on meta tags, so there has to be something on there somewhere, I assume

Good to know. Yeah, there has to be something in the metadata for GN'R's entry in their system as an artist and/or their tracks and albums that relates them to these search terms.
Question is - has that metadata ended up filled with shit from things like user's local files, their searches, their playlists, and/or sources online? Personally, I think that's unlikely. It would seem like a surefire way to ruin the reliability of your search feature if you're Spotify.
So, if it's an upcoming release, that's great. My other theory is - these titles have been around associated with the GN'R project for years, what if they exist on one of UMG's internal systems somewhere that Spotify connects to. But, that wouldn't explain why this starts happening now.
You got any insight into what systems a record co like UMG use and what industry platforms companies like Spotify, Apple, etc. connect to?
Re: SOG single coming?
If any of this stuff true and we're on the verge of new material...it means that it's probably one of two things...
A surprise release
An online only release
I suppose it could be similar to Hard School but would they really release an album where it takes months to buy a physical copy?
My excitement was at a 9....Ballad of Death knocked it down to a 3.

I'm not sure I follow the logic on this one... This is a released track by DJ Ashba is it? Who was a member of GN'R? So wouldn't it be reasonable to assume an ex-GNR member would return GN'R when a track of their's is searched? If I searched a Slash's Snakepit song, would it not also recognise GN'R?
I jjst can't see how this is the same as unreleased song titles returning GN'R. To this end, I still think something is happening

Could be online only and months later physical. Oddly, I reckon the physical release availability probably matters more these days for anniversary collections than it does for new releases.
