'Lost' Industrial Album?

[Faxl]

You remember when CD was supposed to be all industrial/techno? Well wasn't there supposed to be an album's-worth of material for said album? What if that's just...sitting in the GN'R vaults, never to see light of day? I know I ask a lot of pointless questions, but this hath been bugging me.

well i have heard that axl's 52 mastered tracks included industrial stuff (though as bad as it sounds *shudders*). so its more than just a little rumor. infact it may not be lost as axl plans more albums after CD. if theres a album with Rhiad and silkworms in the pipeline, there will be stuff like Closing in on you to go along with it perhaps. but who knows.

God damn it would of been amazing i personally love all the experimental stuff like my world, OMG, Silkworms and would of bought two or three copies of it even if it was the worst album ever released.

Gawsh I know, Riyadh next to The Blues would really mix the album up. In a good way.

Honestly GNR industrial

It'd of been better than the same tired out epics imagine if Better didn't exist or CITR imagine an album full of Madagascar type songs It'd soon get old fast.

there's a lot of "lost" stuff...
I remember a matt sorum interview from 97 where he said they had 1000s hours of recorded material...

there are also the zakk wyld tapes said to be locked up in Duff's vault...

etc, etc, etc....

^^    Think they'd be released if all the GN'R past members diedi or something? Not that I want it t happen, but-

As much as people bash the industrial direction, I think it could be sweet if they properly mixed the Pitman beats, dirty guitar, and well written lyrics. It'd be yet another expansion of the GNR canon.

ok, but im not sure how i would feel to have "The Greatest Rock n' Roll band" playing industrial music. maybe its just an old timers point of view

Hey, it's nice to dream and keeps the pain and frustration of thinking about this catastrophe now doesn't it?

I'm not saying go NIN Industrial, but GNR with an industrial direction. As much people speculate about the whole "industrial" concept, I doubt it was going to be all industrial songs. Sure there'd be Oh My God, Chinese Democracy, Rhiad and the Bedouins and maybe Silkworms, but there'd also be There Was A Time and more epic style songs as well.

The 'new' direction still has a lot of Pitman and loops and stuff like that, so it's been scaled back, but if you would have told the average GNR fan that they were going with loops, we would have probably flipped. Now it doesn't seem so bad does it?
