Coltrane Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 i listened to it a couple of times in 2008i thought it was a total waste of time and money (not my money as i didn't buy it.)
Chewbacca Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) It's my favorite album by Gn'R.album is terrible. very generic sounding.i think part of the reason axl took so long to put it out there was cause even he know it wasn't good. certainly doesn't hold a candle to the albums he put out with old guns.I think you have serious brain damage, ask your doctor good luck!!!! +1 Ok, you may not like the album, your opinion, I respect that, but the album is not "generic sounding". how many albums sound like that? CD has no labels. On the other hand AFD, a great album, nevertheless, and most of Slash's post Gn'R stuff are simple "hard rock with bluesy influences" albums. Edited April 16, 2011 by Chewbacca
The Wicked Hand Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 I don't love it but I don't hate it. What I don't get is how some people act like axl's cd is breaking somekind of musical ground or progressive or differnt. What, because he mixes drum machines in there? Fuckin Tommy lee n Fred durst did that in like 1997.The only thing different I see about it is that it says guns n roses on the cover but it doesn't fucking blow my mind...
Angeles_ Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) oh no way. if we started talking about some art that i enjoyed, you'd see some lovely glowing discussion. i just think this album is total crap. but that's okay. every band i love made an album or two i thought was crap. same with filmmakers or writers i like. some stuff i like, some i don't.Im sorry for you baby ... im here to talk about GNR, Chinese, Axl, DJ, Chris, Tommy, Ron, Richard, Frank, Dizzy and Paul Tobias (never forget him) this is the art I enjoy Edited April 17, 2011 by Angeles_
mrandyk Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 It was like 3 good songs and 11 songs that dont even come close to having the name "Guns n' Roses" anywhere near them.
megaguns1982 Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 As ive stated before, CD just sounds too copy and paste.Real bands crank out music and jam to record.This album is 10 years worth of samples, all edited together in pro tools to sound like the mess it became.Put the original GnR in a room and you would get one classic fucking album, probably in less than a week.
The Wicked Hand Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 ^agreeeeebut you put classic gnr in a room, prolly some blows get thrown.Jkbut axl wouldn't show up or try to have all the say so in the songs or want all the writing credit.Who knows.... But sadly it wouldn't work.At one time, I thought age would calm axl's troubles but it doesn't seem that's the case.
STARABOSTES Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 yeap.great thread. for a great album.best album GNR ever made... so far...I don't love it but I don't hate it. What I don't get is how some people act like axl's cd is breaking somekind of musical ground or progressive or differnt. What, because he mixes drum machines in there? Fuckin Tommy lee n Fred durst did that in like 1997.The only thing different I see about it is that it says guns n roses on the cover but it doesn't fucking blow my mind...what mind? and why fucking blow it?album is terrible. very generic sounding.i think part of the reason axl took so long to put it out there was cause even he know it wasn't good. certainly doesn't hold a candle to the albums he put out with old guns.I love the album. I am not saying its the best , but its up there for me. Im not here to argue with you or say which guns era is better. Nobody will win because your opinion is yours and mine is mine. I have read countless of your posts downgrading CD, again your opinion. After all your negative posts on CD you have NEVER proven any point to me. I love the new lineup (dont hate the old one). I will continue to see Axl's vision of GNR for the future and have stopped living in the past. I hope for some reason ($$$) this forum continues that we could have future friendly discussions.cool post.
Guns n' Swedes Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 It's definetly not as good as anyone would expected it to be.
kok Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 All I now is I listened to Appetite 2x in last 10 years, Lies 10x, UYI once a month and the leaks and CD at least once a week
grigori Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 A few songs are ok. Not what I was anticipating but the vibe kind of wore off during the Piazza leaks anyway.
cancerface Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 i think it's very telling that even on a gnr fan site most people don't really like the album. or are so-so about it.it's cool that axl at least managed to impress a small minority of his fans with that album. chinese democracy... lol.
mrandyk Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 i think it's very telling that even on a gnr fan site most people don't really like the album. or are so-so about it.Good point. People who go to fan sites are almost always completely infatuated by every single piece of material, this album must really blow. Talk to anyone who knows anything about music about Axl Rose and you will always get sour words, that dude is a fucking loser.

cancerface Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 all of those shows are sold out because axl had the good fortune to once be in a talented band with great songwriters and real rockstars.

Slash is headlining Sonisphere this summer. The only reason people go to Axl Rose's shows is the name. If he didnt have it then he wouldve been laughed out of town well over a decade ago.

Ive seen Axl and Slash extremely closely recently, have you ever seen either? Slash took his shirt off for the encore, dude isnt fat at all and he certainly isnt bald. He has long, full, curly hair...you are a moron to say the least.
Angeles_ Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 dont get nervous .... I've only seen thisand i dont like it
cancerface Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 could you imagine if axl ever took his shirt off on stage again? lol.
Angeles_ Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 could you imagine if axl ever took his shirt off on stage again? lol.thats why I love him .... he is a gentelman not stay stuck in time ...he is elegant ... Axl isnt afraid to change his clothes
