now look at that...
you hated something that was labelled the band but was actually 95% solo effort.
this is exactly what this album is about.
But I do like Final Cut :)
The problem was The Final Cut is actually well done unlike CD
[QUOTE=Raiken;31449621]The problem was The Final Cut is actually well done unlike CD[/QUOTE]
Nah... Axl laid down some good songs here. It's listenable unlike Final Cut which is drawn out sometimes.
I like both but the first is more listenable.
No way. The Final Cut was incredibly listen to, particularly side two, you get in to Fletcher and before you know it this 'seemingly long' song drifts to a stop at the end of the album without me having to skip over anything due to boredom. I had to force my way through CD which I won't do again
It isn't horrible, but it's nowhere close to the two Use Your Illusion albums.

i wouldn't even call the band guns and roses to be honest. I've come to referring to it as the "Axl Rose Band", nowhere near the quality of the original Guns 'n Roses, Axl Rose Band is close to the definition of mediocre.
it's all opinions i know, but Chinese Democracy is nowhere near underrated, it's an album that topped several national charts, and bumped into many others. And was sold close to 3 million times all around the world. I wouldn't even barely call that underrated, especially seeing how music this day and age is selling less and less.

well I don't "skip over anything due to boredom" when listening to albums.
neither do "seemingly long" song drifts have to mean bad music.
[QUOTE=Raiken;31449414]That's right OP, all the MILLIONS AND MILLIONS people that hate the shitty album are wrong and YOU are correct! After all, we can't all be right?
Newsflash, if Slash was the only reason people liked Gun 'n' Roses, what makes you think that anyone would like them now?[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=TCB;31418971]
Thanks for reading. I'm not, in any way, saying that Guns N' Roses are the best band in the world (though, [b]in my opinion[/b], they are), I'm just saying that I'm sure people would like the album if they just listened to it (unless it's not their style, of course).I'm sure all of you have heard at least [i]one[/i] song by Guns N' Roses. If not, you are very unlucky.[/QUOTE]

Congratulations Sherlock
It may not have been amazing, but I adore "Shackler's Revenge"
Don't like it quite as much as the other GNR albums but it has some good songs.
I don't get it though. What puts people off them? Estranged is a damn fine song.
[QUOTE=Aries;31464962] What puts people off them?[/QUOTE]
their cocks
the definition of cock rock is GNR
i'm seriously confused. do you mean "they're" or their actual dicks?
if you mean "they're", well, no shit. Of course they are. Doesn't make the music any less good imo though

ahem excuse me i know the difference between they're and their
no i meant their real cocks they try too hard to present it to me
listening to their music is kinda like taking a whole of cocks and trying to stick them into your ears
i prefer more clitoral music
as much as I love that analogy
uh
I can't think of anything at this present moment.

why would you ask that at all?
Maybe the fact that the forefront is Axl's annoying whiny voice, complimented by Slash's typical guitar riffs that are practically the 90's development of what AC/DC were, then 3 other members nobody cares about? lol
he sounds like a screeching cat, which is good.
YEEEWWWW NYOWWWW WEEEAAAA YUUUU AAAAHHHHHHH?????
YYEEERRRR IN THE JYUUUNGYULL BYAYBYAYYYYYYYYYYYYY
YEW GYAWWWWN DYAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Axl yelling[/QUOTE]
Which wasn't even on [i]Chinese Democracy[/i]. Poor effort.
I haven't listened to anything from this album; I used to play the hell out of [i]Use Your Illusion[/i]. I got sick of them one day and threw 'em out along with [i]Appetite for Destruction[/i]. I felt like I had grown out of GNR. This was after seeing them live; I would have considered myself a fan up to that point.
If Chinese Democracy had come out sooner than it did, I feel like more people would have given it a chance. Axl being a cunt (as was mentioned) in the intervening years didn't help things, imo.

you're right so typical
I got this from the library months back and didn't care for any of it. Very bland and forgettable compared to the classic material. Found this even more disapponting than AC/DCs Black Ice.
Axl Rose's voice is just absolutely horrid.
This is their most generic album in my opinion. Their old stuff was great but even that got old for me.
Chinese Democracy is [b]not[/b] Guns n' Roses. It's Axl's solo album - but he's such a massive cunt that he won't even see that he is not what made GnR what it is. It was the whole fucking band. Axl seriously needs punched in the face.
That said, the album itself isn't that bad.
