I got the album back in August and I'm pretty happy with it. I was a big fan of GNR and STP so this is a nice arrangement for me. I agree with the bit about Slash not being on his full kick ass potential but all in all it's a nice "freshman" debut for this incarnation. Fall to Pieces, You Got No Right, and Loving the Alien (tracks 6, 10, and 13 respectively) are my faves. This album is definately one of those that you can pop it in and listen to every track. I'm just happy they're back making music.
