D-GenerationX Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 TSI has a few real standout tracks, in my opinion, but at the end of the day, they are still cover songs. I would pick CD over it, and don' think it's a hard choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR DOOM Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The live performances and leaks of the CD songs are so much better than what ended up on the final Chinese Democracy album I'm almost inclined to go TSI? here.If CD hadn't of been cut and pasted to shit, it would have been a lot better- I love the songs but hate the versions that ended up on the album (except Shacklers, Scraped, Sorry and TIL which I don't have anything to gauge off) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxpax Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 tsi is gnr's worst album. sayin this, cd is gnr's 2nd worst album, however it has some inspiring elements, but its simply not gnr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron MikeyJ Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Not suprised CD is winning. But a better competition would have been Lies vs CD. One only has 8 songs, 2 covers. While the other isn't a "real" gnr album. I personally would vote for Lies.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 TSI.. There are a few duds on there but overall it is aweosme. Most of CD sounds like nails down a chalkboard to me.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terzyo Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I prefer TSI, i like songs for this album, for example Aint it Fun, Raw Power or Human Being.In CD, i like only the ballads: SOD, TIL, CITR and Sorry, i hate Better, Riads and Shacklers Revenge, not sound like a Guns N Roses, i like Hard Rock, i hate Industrial.My favourite song of NuGnR is...........

DieselDaisy Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Difficult question as they are both flawed records. TSI is certainly, aesthetically, a superior sounding record as it has Slash, Duff, et al as well as Clink producing: it has a clarity of sound, whereas Democracy sounds like a complete mess. Democracy however consists of original material and one or two of them originals (TWAT and Better) are in the a-list category. TSI is merely a covers record and covers records are always going to struggle to compete with the albums that contain original material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haters Gonna Hate Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 TSI should of never happened. So therefore I voted TSI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bono Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I actually do like TSI better as an album. CD's best is better than TSI's best but TSI as whole is a much better album in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estranged Coma Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Not suprised CD is winning. But a better competition would have been Lies vs CD. One only has 8 songs, 2 covers. While the other isn't a "real" gnr album. I personally would vote for Lies....I'm not surprised at all. Actually on this forum Chinese holds up pretty well against any gnr album. There was a thread not too long ago with each album and Chinese was at the top for awhile. Appetite and Chinese were pretty neck and neck the whole time.

Evil Ernie Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Chinese Democracy is the best thing out there with the GNR name attached to it.I could maybe see a poll about AFD and CD (a big maybe), but this is just ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rank CD higher if the arrangements and instrumentation was less cluttered and complimented the melodic structures of the songs as opposed to distracting from them - and I wouldn't have minded a couple of stronger songs instead of Riad and Scraped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
