One other thing...You guys are analyzing this songs as if they were FINISHED versions. Saying things like 'it sounds hollow' etc...Proper mix & mastering will fix that kind of thing.

I actually heard IRS on the radio today and it was OK - I think the negativity going around is people are saying they waited this long for Chinese Democracy and we are just now getting rough demoes? WTF - finish the freakin album already so we can move on with our lives.

I still listen to the old stuff from time to time, but gnr's time has come & went a long time ago. This might have been relevent back in the late 90's but just doesn't intrest me now.

Man, i can't agree with that.

The only thing I CAN say is that I PERSONALY would be much more interested if SLASH or ANY OTHER FOUNDING MEMBER was still involved.

That really is a fucking downer to me.

That being said the two new tracks being talked about here are "OK", imho.

They aren't so far gone like "MY WORLD" as I was expecting ...

the ending bit of "better" (the file i downloaded ends around 1:20?) sounds like FACE POLUTION by Soundgarden !?!

weird.

oh well.
any axl is better than no axl, i guess.

:(

i miss slash!

edit: after having given both several listens
i want to comment that the GUITAR WORK IS VERY SIMPLISTIC compared to a lot of the old GnR material ...
you can argue that with me, if you want ... but i've been playing GnR songs on guitar for a while now and these songs are both just sliding a power chord up 3 times over ... chunka-chunka-chunka ... and i do not like the "modern" guitar sound all that much ... this should not sound like POD, for godsake ... I know the chords have to match what axl is singing ... but compared to a song like Don't Damn Me or something ... this is just boring ...

:(

Not bad for demos.

pjtradeking · February 2006

Did I miss these? When I tries to listen, they said they were asked to take them down. Anyone have them, or am I just blind? I would love to hear these, I would appreciate any help.

mattosborne · February 2006

Better is my favorite, I wish I had a full length version.

I like the lyrics a lot.

JSP552003 · February 2006

i know these are just demos, but the album looks verrrrry promising. I've liked every new song ive heard so far: madagascar, the blues, chinese democracy, better, irs, and there was a time. i'm really lookin forward to it if/when it finally gets released.

prljam85 · February 2006

Its not too bad. I was expecting worse

bobasfeet · February 2006

The finished "Better" will rock.

pjtradeking · February 2006

I just got done listening to 'there was a time', and I gotta say that I am really digging this shit BIG TIME! Demos or not, and long overdue or not, Axl is an amazing lyrycist and composer imho. I was a g-n-r fanatic back in the days before PJ, and this is amazing. Anyone else like it, or am I on the usual lonely island alone again??

you're so fucking right!! the 2 min leaked version really does show you the direction where the song is going to and wow..its my fave so far.

haha...if i was Axl's associate i would be removing the links

immortality_13 · February 2006

Better is the better one, TWAT and Better sound like they are written about Stephanie.
i think the full version of Better is the last of the songs that should be leaked no more, we dont axl pissed off and further delaying the album.
i wonder if the songs came from the NYC club outting, maybe someone there copied them somehow?

You're not alone..you're never alone.

AxlUlrich · February 2006

hell yeh you're definitely not alone
but some of the gn'r fans i know don't really like T.W.A.T as much as Better and I.R.S.
i cant wait to hear the full version of "Better" the chorus just explodes in your face!

jamhead64 · February 2006

liking the songs more and more with each listen.

i have also heard a studio version of the song chinese democracy. a friend of mine has had two versions of the song for over a year now. he plays me the song every time i see him, but its not very often, so ive only heard it a few times. hope he lets it out now that there are some songs getting out.

AxlUlrich · February 2006

only heard like 8 seconds of the studio version of "Chinese Democracy"
so far so good...the live version is pretty good too

immortality_13 · February 2006

how did u get to hear that?

dCowboyPJ · February 2006

Better is such a good song. Like what was said before, the album version is going to be so good.

TheCrum · February 2006
