Slither has no chorus?

So..

At least they got together, recorded a song and are playing it.

I bet they show up to all their dates too.

No chorus...

I'm just glad to have a song!

Shit man, c'mon!

If you don't like...Don't listen.

Chinese Democracy doesn't really have a chorus either. You guys can talk all you want about radio airplay and format....it doesn't mean shit. We will see what the record sells...that is ALL that counts. The radio and radio formatting is what has KILLED rock and roll. Fuck KROQ and Clear Channel and all the record companies. Fans buy records. This album will open with less than 100,000 units sold..just a prediction.

Bloody hell man whats the music fan world coming to !? lol Moan moan moan.  Are you going to start a boycott now?

Believe it or not there is no law into how to write a song.  It's not just verse - chorus - verse chorus - solo.

Moaning about the structure of the song is just dull.  If you can do better - and i am not dobting that you can - but well then go and do it  instead of moaning.

Actually I think it's: Intro, verse, verse, bridge, chorus, verse, bridge, chorus, solo, chous, chorus...

I think the ones Izzy wrote will be the best ones.... Slash and Duff and Matt are not very good song writers...

You think Izzy wrote the best songs cos they were the ones that were the most classic rock-inflected, more Guns N Roses.

Duff is capable of writing very solid material, as Beautiful Disease shows.

REM's 'Losing My Religion' had no chorus and it's main instrument was a mandolin, and it was the hit of the summer. No chorus=no issue.

no coz Izzy is a better song writer... im talking about lyrics... Slash and Duff and Matt have nothing to say... they can write amzing guitar and solos and bass lines... Sweet child, WTTJ, Estranged,  the Bass intro to Its so easy...

but lyricly they fall short... Izzy does not....

ok i stand corrected... maybe it will be a decent album then... not like the Snakeshit

I thought all the songs were written prior to finding a lead singer.. thats why i dreaded hearing any lyrics written by Slash or Duff or Matt...

STP had some good tunes....

The band wrote the music for about half of the songs (from what I've read) prior to Scott joining and some new music after he joined, but Weiland wrote all of the lyrics.

I disagree about the rest of the band being bad lyricists though, Duff has huge talent in that area, just check out anything from Beautiful Disease.

Can you describe the songs in any more detail from what you remember, could you compare any of the riffs to any GN'R songs? What about Slash's solos?

I love what I've heard of Sucker Train Blues too, did it sound just as powerful when they played it live?

Did Illegal I sound as punky as Duff has described it?

Well I don't remember much about suckertrain blues outside of it being a great opener. It was more of a what are they playing, this sounds good thing.

Fall to pieces was the most gnr sounding song of them all. It has an epic solo. The november rain comparisons are dead on.

Big Machine has a catchy chorus that everyone can sing along to.
