The anniversary of Jeffrey Epstein's death...
There is a new Guns'n'Roses single. Ok, it's a song the band was playing live twenty years ago, it has one verse repeated (and one pre-bridge or something used once) to totally attack someone, presumably Stephanie Seymour.
The song was written closer to the breakup with Stephanie than to the release of Chinese Democracy, it's safe to assume she's the screaming fucking banshee who doesn't even deserve to be in the gutters.
Dizzy little dreamer with your head down in the stars
Fucking little schemer, got yourself inside the art
Syphilitic priestess baby, I know who you are
Parasitic demon sucking acid through your heart
Remember, Chinese Democracy was all about Stephanie and Axl explaining to her son what had happened. Who else would have a pussy full of maggots? And you can understand why he never bothered to write a second or third verse in the last twenty years, what else is there to add?
I will admit that the live version does sound a little bit like the real Guns'n'fuckin'Roses so for all the justified criticism, at least there's something new. There's even... I can't believe I'm saying this... a video.
It's ridiculous enough to make you wonder if Axl really did have this planned all along and this is what he knew 2021 would deserve. It's just a close-up of a computer-generated Medusa with very little movement, just color changes, and no connection to even the timing of the song much less anything else. And this music is the actual recording which has nothing to do with Guns'n'Roses. Slash and Duff could say they had nothing to do with it and no one would disagree.
I've watched the video once before writing any of this, now I'm going to watch it again. The things I do for you people.
Nope, there's nothing. Oh, there's enough movement of the medusa figure to suggest that something might possibly start happening but that's it. The actual bridge is a few bars of soft music which has nothing to do with the rest of it and there's no clue what Axl is trying to sing. He obviously needed many edits for that vocal take which was then repeated three times.
There actually could be potential. It wouldn't be great but if they dropped most of the overdubbed guitars and if Axl sounded something like he used to, it would definitely be catchier.
With all the swear words, there's no way this will get played on radio or MTV so it can't be much of a hit. There'll be a lot of views on Youtube though. The swearing is probably why it wasn't on Chinese Democracy, Axl used few if any swear words on that album.
It's like the minimal amount of work to suggest that something might happen, the amount of overproduction just adding noise to would could be a decent-if-generic G'n'R tune, the video that's literally barely more than nothing. Random clips of concert attendees would at least have something but this... Absurd isn't even close to the right word.

I actually am your stepping stone, I just never told you
Still pondering my thoughts on the 'in' crowd. There's pretending to totally believe in a "working class" that they never want to be a part of and really dislike whenever they have to actually meet one of them.
Well, he self-identifies as a male and was born with a penis, isn't that enough? He was also a member of ISIS and was competing on Iran's behalf.
At this point, I'm assuming Iran, China and Russia are the superpowers, the American elites are just there to obey.
I'm also trying to work this out, why are they so opposed to the concept of time? They sure don't put up with their servants sitting around, waiting until they feel like cooking their meals, cleaning their houses, watering their gardens, maintaining their electricity or anything else required to handle their large buildings and the mansions of their owners.
It is depressing to think that this may be humanity's natural state and those who see more than that are the exceptions.
There's also reports of shortages growing as things get more expensive. That naturally happens when tyrants take over, they don't actually know how anything is created and impose their whims upon the nation no matter what the cost.
And just a note, I wonder if this will go anywhere, Marvel has just had it's first real movie bomb, or at least the first one for the official "MCU." The Black Widow movie, she not so hot. Pretty sure that if Scarlett Johansen had done it a decade ago, there'd be a lot more people who want to see everything. But no, they waited too long, probably desperate to prove that people really do want to watch superchick movies. She's already suing Marvel because that always works out well.
