It's hard to call a lot of those. I mean, what pairs up as an even match to what? Does it have to be Better vs. Slither? What if it was The Blues vs. Gravedancer? It doesn't work for me. I think VR has a strong catalogue. Apparently I'm one of the few who actually liked the band. I also think the leaks are pretty much a unanimous success. It's just too tough to call it. But there's my lists for ya.
Re: Are we at comparison time yet? BEST of VR vs. BEST of New GNR Lineup
I'd take VR over the leaks, but that is more because only 1 of the leaks is pretty good the way it is (Better) and 1 could be good if it were remixed better (TWAT). None of the others are worthy of consideration for an album by a quality band in their "current" state. It might be a better comparison if we were comparing VR demos to GnR demos.
