Next GnR Single Is Going To Be “The General” – Heaviest Song That Axl Ever Made
The upcoming release from GnR is set to be titled “The General.” The band made this exciting announcement through a pre-save campaign for the 7-inch single of their song “Perhaps.” Sharp-eared fans swiftly uncovered that the B side of the record (the “R” in this instance) features a track called “The General.” Several fans even turned to Reddit to inquire whether this song will be available for streaming, and they received a tantalizing response from a member of the band’s management: “perhaps.” The highly anticipated single is slated to hit the shelves in October.
“The General” has sparked discussions involving former GnR drummer Brain, who was actively engaged in the songwriting process. Additionally, Sebastian Bach delved into this track back in 2007, mentioning in an interview with Metal Edge that it stood as his favorite new GnR composition. Describing it as the heaviest offering Axl Rose has ventured into, the song boasts slow and grinding riffs coupled with soaring, intense vocals. Bach suggested that “The General” might potentially be intended as a sequel to “Estranged,” adding another layer of intrigue to the forthcoming release.
