Weighing in on Chinese Democracy
# 1
I agree with this article. The more I listen the more I like. Granted I started listing expecting to hear Slash whaling and Axl giving it hell and was greatly disapointed at first. However, I think given a chance and Axl getting off his butt, GnR could become a cool "new" band.

Well, I'm not sold on it. It's not even Guns and Roses anymore. Maybe they could be considered a good band, why keep that name with this lineup? After 17 years of breakup, start something new. And the best buys thing, How much did they pay for the rights to sell this? Guns and Roses were good when they were hot, but they wern't The Beatles or The Stones or something. Too many contracts signed on this deal . On a product that never had it to succeed to begin with. Chinese Democracy is a "corprate Rock" "Best Buys" album. It stinks!!!! :eek:
