Rank CD songs (Final Results in OP)


Recommended Posts

This album is pretty much garbage because it is half- Nine Inch Nails, half Elton John.  The problem is, the material on this album is a very poor man's version of Nine Inch Nails, and an terrible version of Elton John.  It really is a strange mix of mediocre songs.  Buckethead is a technically proficient player, but there is no heart and soul in the playing like Slash has.  The drumming is Extremely weak and pathetic throughout.  I could only see the original lineup doing There Was A Time, and that's it, with better drumming and a Slash solo.

Quite like this album actually! True, it isn't a GNR album, but that's by the by! When it's good, it's fantastic. 

 

 

1. Better

2. There Was A Time

3. Street Of Dreams

4. If The World

5. Sorry

6. Chinese Democracy

7. I.R.S.

8. Prostitute

9. Shackler's Revenge

10. Madagascar

11. Catcher In The Rye

12. Scraped

13. This I Love

14. Riad N' The Bedouins

 

In my humble opinion, the first 7 tracks I listed above are the most listenable to my ears. The last 3 on the list are skips for me. Everything else in between I can take or leave. The outro to Prostitute is amazing though!

I really love Bucket's work on Sorry and Scraped. I've come to appreciate them much more throughout the years.

Well, Scraped anyway, I always liked Sorry. The drum intro on Scraped detracts from a solid mid-card song, IMO.

I could make an argument for Sorry being the best song on the album. :P

Sorry's a little too whiny for me to fully appreciate :P the instrumental is great, but it's not a song I particularly enjoy listening to

I like the direction Riad and Scraped were headed too with a heavier sound, but stacked against the rest of the album I had no choice but to rank them low

Sonically it's an interesting song Scraped. Very catchy but weird. Bumblefoot did a great work with that fretless solo. I wish I could rank it higher.

I tried again last week to listen this album.. I am sorry ears...

CD, Madagascar and Street Of Dreams are the only ones with any potential..

I didn't listen To Catcher.. But I have been meaning to. 

Listening made me scared of hearing what new GnR music would sound like...
