heaven&hell Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 From Blabbermouth(from Rollingstone.com): RollingStone.com: Any more solo projects in the works? Vince: I'll be recording my record in April, when MÖTLEY's off, before Crüe Fest 2 starts. Then I'll probably release it in early November, when MÖTLEY's finishing this tour. RollingStone.com: Are you in the same state of mind with the solo projects? Vince: No, it's a different set of guys, a different style of music. It's a little more aggressive than MÖTLEY, more like an AC/DC vein. Obviously, we play smaller places, which is cool with me. I get the best of both worlds. I love playing in theaters, and I don't mind opening for somebody else. It's very humbling but it's cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this make an ounce of sense to anyone else??? Since when have AC/DC been more agressive than Motley Crue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Gold Donors Metal T Posted November 19, 2008 2023 Gold Donors Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Exposed was ok..was nice to hear him with someone who can actually play.. could care f'n less about a new album from this guy though.

Does this make an ounce of sense to anyone else??? Since when have AC/DC been more agressive than Motley Crue? I'd say that old AC/DC like "Let There Be Rock" and "Powerage" along with "Back in Black" and "Flick of the Switch" was every bit as agressive as early Motley Crue. Of course that's all just a matter of opinion. With you being from Australia you should know that AC/DC was every bit to that scene what Motley was to the Sun Strip scene. Meaning they were just as wild off stage as they were on. And with Bon Scott he probably did everything that Motley described doing in "The Dirt" book and then some.

SamboraRocks86 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 if my house caught fire and i could only grab 10 CDs, Exposed would be one of them as would the Message CD cause that thing goes for £60 these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the melodicness of Exposed but love the ballz of Carved in Stone. Not to mention the guitarist smokes! I believe the guy who played on Wildside's Under the Influence?

I either sold it or it's been sitting in my "to-sell" pile for about 5 years. I just couldn't get into any of those songs. 'Exposed' is pretty sweet though. a different style of music.

Oh yeah, not denying AC/DC are an aggressive enough band but I would never have labelled them any more or less aggressive than Motley Crue. Just seems like an odd thing to say. It's almost as silly as saying something like "We don't want to sound like Def leppard, but we aim to make an album that sounds like BB Steal."

I love the melodicness of Exposed but love the ballz of Carved in Stone. Not to mention the guitarist smokes! I believe the guy who played on Wildside's Under the Influence? While I would certainly pick Exposed over Carved in stone, as the style on Exposed is my main music style of choice (its the best Crue album they never made), I do love Carved in stone for its pure attitude, only to end on one of the most personal and emotional ballads you will ever hear. I also liked the internet single, Promise me, that he released a few years ago, so I have high hopes for a new album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I really never got into that ''Carved in Stone' CD at all. I either sold it or it's been sitting in my "to-sell" pile for about 5 years. I just couldn't get into any of those songs. 'Exposed' is pretty sweet though. For once Geoff makes sense. I really thought that "Carved In Stone" sucked big time. "Exposed" on the other hand was (still is) great. So if the new release will be in the vein of "Carved..." I'm not gonna get it.
