I was surprised too, James. While she may be on the right track in saying Gaga isn't exactly reinventing the wheel, at least she is a true artist. No one quite like her.
On a related note, I despise all this "beefing" that goes on in the industry. It's lame and can really hurt lots of people, including fans. If you are hard-core for MIA but also like Gaga, what do you do?
Just look at the GNR fanbase to see what can happen.
Agreed. All this bickering my have a point, but at the same time the copy-cat stuff has been going on for years and years.
MIA should stick to what she does best and that's making music. No need to be picking fights with GaGa, even though MIA is way better.

That bad huh?
I won't be buying the entire thing.
#563 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash album reviews » 865 weeks ago
I really don't care. Most music fans knew the album was coming out, especially rock fans, there was so much rumor and speculation about the album. It didn't sell because people didn't like it that much. When they played the entire album in my city it killed it... People were like "wtf is this shit" and they never gave it a second listen.
Ah so when you bring logic into the mix all of a sudden you lose the ability to argue your original point and fall back on spouting off things you can't prove? I get it.
I'm sure you went and asked everyone in your city what they thought of CD and they all said that. My guess if you live in Bum-Fuck Iowa with a population of 24 rednecks who love country music! Because any other way you wasted your time asking all those people what they thought about an album. Which may possibly show an insecurity in your own opinion if you look to others to validate what you feel about music.
You see, that's the wonderful thing about music is that NO ONE can tell you what to feel or think about it. They may try, and if you listen you are a dumbass. So I would suggest you quit trying to change other people's opinion on Chinese Democracy, ESPECIALLY in a thread dedicated to reviews of Slash's new album. Yes we all get it, Slash and Axl used to work together. Heaven forbid we let them each have their own career.
And for the record, these songs sound bland and unoriginal compared to CD. At least Axl tried to expand his borders a little.
#564 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash album reviews » 865 weeks ago
If you didn't know CD was coming out, you are a fucking idiot, Axl had been touring in support of it since Rock In Rio 3, 2002, 2006, and now..
Excuse me? Did Axl happen to play to 6 billion people? Wow, that must have been a huge tour! Where was I?
#565 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash album reviews » 865 weeks ago
They played the complete album "Chinese Democracy" in its intirety in every medium to large market in the united states. When was the last time that happened? And the Dr. Pepper thing was huge news. EVERYONE NEW THAT ALBUM WAS COMING OUT. EVERYONE. Not many people know of the Slash album, but those that do want it.
You guys need to pull your heads out of your asses. This is fucking embarrassing. We are arguing over Slash's album vs CD and people are offering up whatever 'proof' they have.
Smoking Guns, D- you like Slash better? GREEEEAAAAAAT for your! I'm happy for you, really, I am.
Other people like CD better (myself included)- wonderful!
The rest is just pissing in the wind really.
But to say that everyone knew CD was coming out is a huge stretch of the truth. I have no idea where you live, but I know that not a lot of people knew CD was coming out. I for one saw ZERO advertisement for it outside of the two stands inside Best Buy.
I know of the Slash album and I don't want it. Are you calling me a liar?
I've heard many albums played in their entirety on radio stations including Scream by Cornell and we all know how well that went over, like a turd in a punch bowl.

This thread is amazing for the sheer level of pathetic stupidity involved in it.
(note: all the stupidity came from the one drama queen in here)

#570 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SLASH Says 'Chinese Democracy' Was 'The Perfect AXL Record' » 866 weeks ago
If I didn't know any better I'd say there's one vocalist Slash wants to work with more than anyone else now.
Guess he heard his own record.
