With the vocal processing it sounds AI and just plain weird. This is what any remaining Chinese material is going to sound like.

Surely there must be AI tech now that can process his vocal from the 06 Bach,  Angel Down sessions.

 

brother, dont go making my dick hard talking like that, because unfortunately it wont come true and just gives me blue balls in the process.

 

That axl rose is long goneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I haven't listened to this yet, but his vocals on most of the CD songs are extremely processed. So it's not really anything new. 

 

Whether it was because he was self conscious, or felt it was better creatively, they were very processed. 

 

It is ironic considering how raw the vocals are on AFD. There isn't even any compression in the original master.

Pitman get Slash on the juice again. Imagine if we got drunk Slash shredding like the 90s instead of fat money hungry Slash noddling shitty improv solos.

There is already consumer-level AI that can do that. 

 

There are two reasons why those Youtube AI covers do not work. One, the original performance doesn't have the characteristics of Axl. The way he sings and enunciates words. His pacing, phrasing, etc. Two, they don't have enough isolated vocal material to train the AI. 

 

Hypothetically, Axl wouldn't have those limitations because he could sing the song himself and it would sound like him. He also has access to all his vocal takes throughout the years, that someone could use to train the AI.

 

Also, because all the vocals he has released in the Chinese era, and more so in the "regrouping" have been heavily processed, the leap to AI processed vocals is likely not that noticeable. 

 

Of course, we're referring to crappy bedroom software that obsessive Youtube AI remixers use. With how many ageing rockstars there are out there (Axl Rose, Bon Jovi, Richard Cheese), it wouldn't surprise me to see someone invent the next generation of "auto tune". Where Axl can sing live or in studio, and it's a unique vocal, but the AI makes it not shit. Maybe Peter Jackson will get down to the brass tacks and manufacture an Axl-bot 9000 vocal machine. 

 

I don't like how processed the vocals are, but if you want to take away a positive, it sounds like Axl Rose enough that if you showed it to someone, they know it's him. So while heavily processed, he can still go into the studio and lay down vocals that sound recognizable. The general public doesn't want Axl singing songs that he can do in his natural voice that he still has, and I doubt he is interested in that. So this is what we get. It is what it is.

I finally gave this song a listen. His voice is so degraded now. He should either use AI vocals for a new album, hang it up, or do a bluegrass thing like Robert Plant or David Lee Roth. If it was up to me I would pick making a documentary about Axl using AI to make a new GNR album.

It's so sad Axl wasted the last years of his prime fighting over bullshit.  We should have had at least another two or three albums before his voice steeply declined between 93 and 2000.

I've listened to the song about 20 times now. 

I really like the guitar. Schenker is pretty awesome.

I also dig the song. I like the way Axl sounds. 

I no longer care if it's auto tuned or processed or whatever. 

It sounds like Axl and the song is good

 

Come at me brah

Like I mentioned earlier his vocals just sound weird.  I wish they just left the vocals a little more raw.

Is this different than what anyone expected?  At least the most recently Axl recorded vocals are no longer Rock the Rock.

 

I wonder if Schenker has die hard fans like GNR?  I don't think so.  If he does I wonder if they are pissed he keeps releasing the same songs from 45 years ago that they have all heard a million times.

I'm a Schenker fan so I listened to the album a couple times.  Same old songs.  Axl and Slash are by far the biggest guests on the album.  Guitar playing is stellar as it has been for Schenker, but all these songs are over 40 years old.  What's next a blues cover album?  Who does that?

A Village session style leak where we hear the other songs by Axl,drums +2, bass -4 etc.

Here is Schenker talking about it.  Schenker has probably played this song with 50 singers or mnore in his life.  Now he's got Axl Rose on his album... it's going to get more coverage so this is great for him.  But, in the ever fleeting wind of the internet it will be dust n' bones.

If this was 2000-2004 this would be all over the media based on Axl alone being on the album.

Schenker getting Axl, the The GNR recluse on his album.

Nowdays when people think of Axl they think of Billy Joel appearances.

A cameo of Axl and Schenker doing Fat-town (Uptown) Girl.

Imagine the vocal processing on this song!.
