OK Album, If Released Under Another Band Name
on December 5, 2008
Posted by: stacebabe

I don't even know what to say. I was saddened by this album because I was always such a HUGE GNR fan. This is NOT a GNR album, make no mistake about it. This is ... well, I'd say an "Axl" album, but the fluctuations in his voice and the songs just do not mix well. The song Chinese Democracy is the only one that resembles the old GNR in any way, shape or form. Axl's voice sounds strangely out of place on almost all of the other songs.
I can remember standing in line at midnight at Strawberries when Use Your Illusion 1 & 2 went on sale. I put the CDs in my car, and got goosebumps instantly. I still do when I play them. The other day, I put Chinese Democracy in my car and drove around with a puzzled look on my face for the next hour. I've played it and replayed it, and I really do not like it. It has nothing to do with the old band members, it has more to do with the old style -- a style that I believe could've easily been successfully resurrected, but was not at all.
I wish I had borrowed it from a friend for a week so I could just give it right back to them.
What's great about it: Hearing Axl's Voice Again
What's not so great: WTF is it? It's not at all like any other GNR album.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
