1. Perhaps - even if I had preferred to have Robin's solo in the final version, it's still the strongest track for me
2. The General And Monsters - I still view it as one long song split into two files - the orchestration is a clear link
3. Absurd
4. Hard Skool I liked the demo, but hate what Slash did with it

two Jehovah Witnesses were walking up to rign the doorbell. Figured the loud music and lyrical content might have scared them away, but no such luck.

I once got rid of some religious nuts in my 20s when they saw the pentagram on my Slayer shirt.

1. Monsters
Very catchy chorus. Slash best work since the start of the releases.

2. The General
Not the monster of a song we thought it was but still pretty good. gives me a SOG- industrial feel to it.

3. Perhaps
Glad the piano is high on the mix. Weird Axl voice effects. Guitar solo is weird because of that 2 notes from the OG being there.

4. Absurd
Pretty good bass on the intro.

5. Hard Skool
The Skool bell kills the song. Don’t like how the guitars sound.

With 8 songs released post CD, That's 3/4 of an album! Not that all of them are great, most are not.

It is an album. Might not max out the disc but what we've heard is an album even though a few key tracks are missing....

Absurd
Hard School
Perhaps
The General
Soul Monster

Atlas Shrugged
Going Down
State of Grace

For shits and giggles you could toss Eye On You and Nothing on there...or even finished instrumentals Devious Bastard and Dub Suplex although those are obviously Buckethead songs.

Taking bucket off of Hard Skool is a fucking crime but at least we have both versions to listen to
