I'd have to hear it. It could actually be great. Not knocking Johnson, love that guy. Much of those great performances on Back in Black were at the absolute top of his range 36 years ago. And he's done and admirable job singing them all these years as he's aged. But axl, with that crazy six-octave range, might sound great because he won't be working as hard. Wanna hear him lean into Shoot to Thrill, before I decide.
Quoting: gmigriff It's definitely got potential, but Axl had better have cleaned them pipes. Have you listened to him post GnR? Really bad stuff mostly. If this were GnR prime days, I'd say yup, good fit and likely HUGE, but now I'm not so sure. Guess we'll see... Quoting: Five Star Bandit Agreed, he still has the range, but has sounded thin and off key at times. But the sound has sucked on every recent clip I've heard. Hard to judge. Agree with Candle. Go big. Sucks that Angus is the only one left. Quoting: gmigriff Definitely a 'grand experiment' ala Van Hagar. Might be jumping the shark or it might be a hair-band geekgasm. Hoping warily for the best. ;)
