So I haven't technically bought it yet, but hearing the leaks and such have been enough to prove this as a superior album. Save for Death Magnetic it will be the first CD I've bought since the '90s, perhaps the last. Several of the songs are absolutely stellar (Better, There Was A Time, Madagascar), right up there with Child or Jungle. Others, like Street of Dreams aka The Blues, range from very good to decent. A couple of songs have been included of which I'm not a fan. But hey, I didn't like My World or It's So Easy either.
Several tracks have never been released or performed in any form, and will thus be a complete surprise. Sebastian Bach has been drooling over Sorry for years though. Suffice to say Chinese Democracy is not Appetite part II or Use Your Illusion III, nor should it be. I don't know why so many expect to hear the sneering glam/punk/metal as if this were still 1987. Every Guns album has been of different character, and although it's too early to see exactly what this one's will be I can say it has variety. One thing all their records share is quality of the highest caliber and Chinese Democracy is no different. Buy this album if you are a fan of great music, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
What's great about it: Great music, period
What's not so great: see below
I would recommend this to a friend!
