Those song names dont sound too promising. Is it any good? Can it be any good? is this now the most expensive album of all time?

Oh right, this is in the Music forum, not the Current Affairs forum. Damn that 'New Posts' button.
I'll believe it when I see it, plenty of release dates have come and gone for 'Chinese Democracy/2000 Intentions' since 'The Spaghetti Incident?' in 1993. 'Madagascar' is a cool song though. If it is released I'll definitely buy it but it can't possibly live up to the wait. Wholly irrelevant now too of course. :)Quote:

either way i dont think any album could live up to the cost/wait and i wont actualy belive its out untill i have it in my hand
There is one song in guitar hero world tour so thats a plus point :D
Of the nine songs I have there is only one I didnt like (track 2), definetly grows on you the more you listen, best album I have heard in a long long while*
*this was the unoffical version accidently released
Release date is set for Nov 23..............AT FCUKIN LAST !!!!!
Not a chance. Axel Rose has discovered the best kep secret in the world. If you keep promising something and throwing out a legitimate reason for it's delay then it soon becomes the most awaited anything ever!!! He could buy release an album full of folk/rap hybrid tracks now and if he called it chinese democracy everyone would buy it because who wants to have to tell their kids they didn't buy the most hotly anticipated cd of all time when it came out? Genius, the man's a genius.
They;ve played a lot of stuff live, which, by all accounts is fairly solid. But, as SLK said, he's in danger of nobody really caring at all now.
Release dates have come and gone before, I'm still not anywhere near convinced.Quote:

He has played a good few gigs with them recently. Plus he has done some stuff with the other guys aswell.
Allthough highly unlikely i wouldnt rule out a re-union which would be the biggest one of my time.
Wow ...he only needed 15 years to come up with that?:confused:Quote:

Good days for retro rock with AC/DC releasing their finest album for yonks this week and now this. Im actually looking forward to this.
or alternatively its stinksQuote:

I'm actually liking it so far. Madagascar is an excellent track.
Yeah there's been some good live versions of that floating around for a while. Gotta say that it beats all sorts of stuff out of Velvet Revolver...Quote:

Im not sure on the album some of it is very good in fairness but it is closer to the long over the top songs from illusion than the gutter rat style on appetite.
Ill still give it a good listen since ive waited this long for it.
I'm enjoying it more with further listens. It's not amazingly good but it probably is the best record I've heard this year.
Repeated listens it's all beginning to make sense. Preferring the heavier numbers, Streets of Dreams sounds very dated. But a strange one is that on Madagascar, the same sample as 'Civil War' is being used again. 'What we've got here is failure to communicate', why rehash old ideas again?
