Estranged Coma Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Give a rating to Chinese on a scale of 1-10 However Rate it as if it were an Axl Rose solo Record with no GNR name attached to it. Obviously the music doesn't change but a lot of people say it doesn't sound like gnr.So pretend it's not GNR and give it a rating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liers Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 9/10. Its my favorite album of all time. With the gnr name I would say 7/10 with afd being 7/10 and both illusions 9/10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lies They Tell Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I agree with the 9/10 rating. AFD being a 10. The fact that it's a GNR record never really affected my opinion. Good music is good music. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceguy Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 5/10Totally mediocre. There are many superb songwriting ideas there, but they're obscured by the horrible shredding and just way too many things happening at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Name is Trinity Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 2/10There's a lot of ambition in the record but it's a complete failure. There's no emotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphus Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 8/10Great record. In recent years I've probably listened to Chinese more than the rest of the records combined even though I think the old material is untouchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Coma Posted September 14, 2015 Author Share Posted September 14, 2015 I'll tally the ratings up and average them in Afew days if we get a lot of opinions ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 6/10solid album i'd rank it above The Spaghetti Incident but i'd take AFD, both Illusions and even Lies just for the Mama Kin cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32of32 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 4/10Duff's solo albums are even better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 It's always hard t judge art outside of context, but I will give it a 7. It contains some really great songs, and some really bad songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnfnrs1972 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 10/10! If you consider it a solo album of Axl's I would call it the best solo album of all time from a lead singer of a band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim26 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 5/10. I listened to it a lot at first, tried hard to like it.... but I haven't had any desire to listen to it in at least 6 years. It's got a couple decent songs. Almost all of the intros are terrible, his falsetto attempts are bad. I just find it hard to consider this a decent record.

Nosaj Thing Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 1/10.1 for Buckethead and Finck parts. The rest is atrocious unlistenable utter shit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) 2. The only good song is Better. All the others are awful. As a whole it's a soulless bland record. Edited September 14, 2015 by maynard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustycage Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 1 or 2/10. I don't like a track on it and haven't listened to it in a couple of years. I'll give it a 2 since it was full of actual completed songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
