ok heres my opinion. We should take sides in this. If we take sides in this feud that will only make the divide between the two bands greater. We should look upon this with a neutral view. Vr fans should be gnr fans and gnr fans should be ver fans. If we the fans split it will only make the likeliness of gnr coming back together worse and widen the gap between the two bands. They are both bands that share a common goal. To bring back rock.

If we split we weaken the dieing genre of rock even more if we stand unified we begin to revive rock.

Alternative was the death of rock. VR is alternative, how the fuck are they bringing back rock? Even if CD sells 1 billion copies, dipshits will still lick the asses of the Fred Dursts and Kid Rocks of the world. Deal with it and be greatfuk for what GNR and good rock we have. If your looking good rock look for older shit

I don't remember anyone asking YOU for your opinion!

just joking

but seriously i don't think Axl's goal is to bring back rock i think he's doing this for more of a personal artistic expression than anything else. He could have brought back rock five years ago. I really think that this is his own therapy and fuck the world if it is big or not. I don't think he's about that anymore.

Yeah, on top of that i'm thinking he wants this album to cement his position on Rock history (does he need to be though?) also i'm guessing he'd like to kick his former bandmates ass' with this CD, showing he doesn't need any of them to produce a kickass record.

What a load of fuckin shit.
First of all Rock never died.
Second, Velvet Revolver sounds more like the good ol' rock GNR made than the leaks that have come out now.
Not surprisingly though, considering the band members.
Agree about the last part though.
The best rock was released during the 70's and 80's.
But we still have bands who's coming out with excellent shit now.

VR isn't alternative ,for that matter neither was STP . they were just tossed in with that group because they were the only NEW hard rock band going at the time and they had no other label to put on em'.

Mires · « **Reply #11 on:** March 15, 2006, 02:11:43 AM »

I just put artist into 2 groups. Good music and bad music. I think VR and the new GnR make good music. The new GnR just makes alot more good music. I only liked maybe 2 songs on Contraband but I have liked all the new GnR stuff so far.

...Velvet Revolver aren't alternative, rock ain't dead!
Given, rock is not as good now as it was in the 80's but some of the modern stuff kicks fuckin' ass, System of a Down for one! Also, whoever it was that said you don't want the old Guns N' Roses back your a fucktard, if your a fuckin' Guns N' Roses fan because of some demos and not the stuff they produced bofore then your not a fan. The leaks are good, but the old Guns N' Roses can never be replaced.

Ugh.

Rock never died. It just changed.

The style of the Beatles died... let's ressurect that sound? No.

People said rock died in the 70's - Lester Bangs anyone?

What you're saying is... blues and punk influenced rock and roll died... and yeah, yeah it did.

that is what rock is. blues influenced. nowadays we have music influenced by rock. but more stripped down instead of more evolved.

So true.The old GNR kicked major ass.The new GNR may turn out good, but it still won't surpass the old.Someone at my school said: "this new GNR isn't GNR.It's just Axl and his bitches."
