Reviews"This is unapologetically huge music....The blistering 'Shackler Revenge' rides a sinister riff to headbanging heaven, while the piano-heavy 'Catcher in the Rye' showcases GN'R at their '70s-aping stadium best.", Ranked #12 in Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2008 -- "It Is Audacious and Unhinged...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "CHINESE DEMOCRACY reveals itself to be an ambitious, brave and expansive offering.", "The artist is in fine, ever-changing voice throughout, and there's certainly a ton of musical food for thought here, requiring several listens before the nuances are revealed.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The music toggles between two primary modes: grinding industrial rock and keys-and-strings balladry.", Ranked #39 in Spin's "40 Best Albums Of 2008" -- "It's no less idea-stuffed than USE YOUR ILLUSION I and II.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "A great, audacious, unhinged and uncompromising hard-rock record. In other words, it sounds a lot like the Guns n' Roses you know.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "These aren't songs, they're suites -- hard-rock hydras cut with miasmic industrial grind, stadium-rattling metal solos, electronic drift and hip-hop churn."
I adore all things GNR. This album is superb. The band is tight and songs brilliant. I heard someone on a podcast saying this was his favourite of all GNR cds and I can see why. Buy it!
