In my opinion, for what its worth, its just...... okay. Just a kinda bland, forgettable mid-tempo plodding rocker.
If a new band came out with this as their first single, it wouldn't excite me. I'm only listening to it because of the GNR name.
I had to look up who the producer is, because they did a terrible job with the cut and paste of that guitar solo. And why even change the solo if Slash is just going to half-ass it and phone it in like that? As someone else said, if you removed it completely, it would make zero difference.
Having said that, there are some nice touches, and some decent little melodic parts. I'm happy that we have it, as I love this band, and I'm grateful for anything we can get from them, but let's just say I'm not blown away. Its not going to be getting played on repeat like some of their earlier stuff, and even some of the highlights from Chinese Democracy.
