Libertad discussion

[Jim Bob]

In my opinion album is amazing, doesn't matter if it sells millions copies or not. Every song is killer there are no fillers in this album

only the hardcore VR fans seem to feel this way.   This one isn't catching on with the general public.  but thats cool you are into it.  I wish i was that into it.   Let it Roll is a cool song.

[NicoRourke]

The only song I like is Get Out The Door. But the talk-box solo just sucks.

On Bon Jovi's Lost Highway there's that We Got It Going On song with a killer talk-box solo on it. I mean a real long & fast one.

Anyway, Libertad just doesn't work for me

[mikegiuliana]

This album just keeps growing on me, I mean like 90 percent of albums there's one or two songs I don't really fancy like spray and the bonus thingy after gravedancer, but so far the two single chosen rule, tlf is great, mary mary, etc.. Opening song let it roll to the closer is awesome..

i don't remember when i last listend to it

Libertad is one of the GREATEST workout albums ever.

I was lifting weights, doing abs and then running to it yesterday and it kept me FIRED up the entire time.

I have noticed the same thing!  Even when not paying a lot of attention, it still rocks in the background.  The louder the better.

Good suggestion, I used to workout to AFD, and occasionally Van Halen, but I'll give Libertad a try.  Maybe they can market it as the best workout music!

Let It Roll really gets the adrenaline rushing.

[Jizzo]

Every best buy ive been in has had like a million of the 22 dollar deluxe version and like none of the regular version of the disc

[GNR_Green]

Just given this disc a spin.  I think it's pretty good, but can't give it any higher praise than that really.  Just too basic for my tastes.  Cantraband was slightly more 'diverse' I thought, although the production was totally cack.

I was hoping for more from this, and I still prefer Snakepit!

7/10

no way in hell is this one gonna sell 1,000,000 copies.

how you like that scottie boy?? ? ?he cursed himself.

I bet Nick Lachey (spelling ? na, nevermind, who gives a fuck about that punk's name ) has sold more albums than VR.

Now Scott, sure you'll think twice before opening your big mouth.

This is a total flop

Total : 192,840 ... Bon Jovi sold almost 300,000 copies of Lost Highway in a week

How long is Libertad being released now ? A month and a little more ?

It's been out almost 2 months now, came out July 3rd.

Has anyone every thought maybe the band doesn't really care about record sales at this point ,they just want to create music that please them?

dude, they may they say that.  but you know as well as I do that when you create something new you want to TOP what you did before.   Now they are smart in realizing they will never top AFD, but if you don't think they were hoping to do better than Contraband, you are nuts.

I'm sure they are happy to make music that pleases them but they can't possibly be pleased with how poorly this album has sold.  By all accounts they were real proud of the album, standing up for it even after Rick Rubin basically told them it wasn't good enough.  It's one thing if a Scott Weiland or Duff solo project, or Slash's Snakepit album doesn't sell well.  Those are side projects.  But when you get 3 key members of a legendary band and a lead singer from a very popular 90's grunge band and you can't entice the public that's got to do a number on your ego.

If platinum is 1,000,000 and Gold is 500,000... ?What is 200,000? ?Bronze?

[Genesis]

More like tin. . Below 500,000 doesn't count.

[GeraldFord]

I wonder if the poor sales will make Axl more confident about releasing CD.

[stolat]

He probably doesn't think about it that much...

[RageNirvanaNIN]

Thats a point I was getting too , people on this forum say how Axl doesn't care about record sales , he does what makes him happy etc... Im sure the VR members are the same way.
