Exactly Bri. Josh's drums should have remained, it would have saved a shitload of time.
...and money, but Axl doesn't care about that. It's all art to him.

Congrats - reminds me of when I got an offer for more than twice what I was making...I was like, ok, where do I sign?

Maybe we could create a thread only for list updates on 5 key markets. We would want to lock it to keep it from getting lost in comments, but a mod could open it and update it once a day for each of the 5 markets. It would be interesting to see the progression (good or bad) and would be far more telling than pissing matches would be.

That is why the song is too much (in my opinion, which should be assumed in all of my posts) as well. I'm sure they don't all play at the same time (though God only knows), but at some point more is just too much. It's cool that Axl likes all these different parts and wants to put them into his music. I respect his right to do so, but fans need to temper their expectations if the whole album is like this. I'm a bit surprised he couldn't find room for a 100 piece orchestra in the mix somewhere...jeez.

Interesting lists Jack and Neemo. It will be interesting to watch over the next couple days. Can you keep it updated daily?

MJ for the spot
I don't think he's a good singer, but he was a hell of a basketball player.

You do realize both of you sound like a bunch of idiots arguing over NOTHING.
I tried to point it out in the post where I made shit up like he did, but he didn't get it. Think of it as an internet Sinefeld episode. It can be very entertaining if taken the right way or very annoying if it isn't.

So you can't prove it? Thank you and good day.

as usual you blindly disagree when someone says something you are not willing to consider and without looking at the facts.
let's simplify things for you buzz, k?
here's a little exercise for you..i want you to pick out which statement is more objective and constructive and unbiased and which one resembles 90 persent of the song's negative reviews.
1. gnr's new song chinese democracy sucks. where's slash?
2. gnr's new song chinese democracy starts of with a creepy build up to a slightly industrial guitar riff that leads way to the first verse, "It don't really matter, You're gonna find out for yourself." It's pretty straight forward song structure wise with a lot going on in the background. It lack's a catchy chorus but makes up for it with fearless purpose. The vocals are ferocious and have the attitude of the old axl that once sang "it's so easy when everybody's trying to please me, baby" but the lyrics are at times hard to make out due to the layering of several vocal tracks. the guitar work is dynamic and the song leaves you wondering what the rest of the album will sound like.
like i said the more positive review is the longer and more objective and this is what i am reading/hearing unanimously.
90%? Now THAT I want you to prove. If (I mean when) you can't, you'll make a post retracting that statement. Hold on, let me try what you did:
1. gnr's new song chinese democracy sucks. it takes way too long to get to the actual song and once you get there, there is nothing to pull you into the song. the structure is ok and Axl sounds good at times, but the song is overproduced and lacks direction. the guitar work is solid but hidden at times. not a song that should have been used to re-introduce what was once the world's greatest rock band. hopefully the rest of the album will have better production value and a more natural sound and feel to it.
2. gnr's new song chinese democracy rocks!!! Axl rulz, $la$h drulz!!!!111!!!
Wow, that was easy. I thought it might be more difficult to make a completely rediculous and meaningless point, but it was quite simple. Thanks for the exercise!
