I had a chance to kill some time and try to unplug and get my mind off the crap that has recently taken over with the recent events. I'm about to sum up Guns N' Roses AND Metallica's newest projects in one fail swoop. Here's the verdict: "I now know what a midlife crisis sounds like". There you have it and quite frankly, that's all they are BOTH worth at this time. Both of these bands don't have all their original members, let alone their original drive to do their best FOR THE FANS. While Metallica is just missing Jason Newsted, they are also suffering lack luster writing and guitar work from the rest of the guys and DON'T EVEN get me started on that whiny bitch Lars Ulrich and his drum playing. Who taught Lars how to use a ride cymbal and told him it was a good idea to use this technique??? Whoever it was needs to be shot. Now, back to GNR or the what's left of them. The only thing original left in this band is Axl Pose...er, I mean Rose(sort of). Here I thought Use Your Illusion I&II sucked...Perhaps "Chinese Democracy" should have been titled, "Use Your Delusion". I have three words left for GNR, "Next stop, Branson." Maybe you can make it there SOLELY on your namesake just like the other yester-year hacks. The only thing that was pleasant coming from this new release is the free Dr. Pepper that was offered up for releasing this crock of shit before the year was up. Seems like the folks at Dr. Pepper got screwed on this deal. The only thing that I could think of that would be an even worse investment would be buying the Detroit Lions. By the way, for those of you that heard of the bomb threat at Best Buy this morning, turns out it was just the release of Chinese Democracy...damage estimates are yet to be determined.
Chinese Democracy = Audio Metamucil
Death Magnetic = Sponataneous Explosive Diarrhea

DUUUUUUUDEEE!
I just posted about Metallica and whack ass G N R.
Sorry, but I am emotionally connected to Metallica. I was pregnant with my first born when Metallica and GNR played Giants Stadium...probably explains why he loves to rock the fuck OUT.
GNR can kick rocks. Velvet Revolver was pretty dope, no?
Good luck with that Dr. Pepper. I went to the Dr. Pepper webpage to get my coupon and the computer frozen up! I guess everyone was trying to get a coupon! It finally unfroze and I get a message saying my coupon would arrive in 4 - 6 weeks. Is it worth it? I mean, really?
I SO want to see the GNR album tank.
Jason, is there a reason why you want it to tank?
Of course, the bass player Metallica really misses is Cliff Burton. And as I said earlier about Chinese Democracy, I can't believe Axl Rose wasted 15 years of his life trying to get Emimem's sound.
Because GNR was as much Slash and Duff as Axl...and Axl screwed those guys.
Caspar - I won't give you too much crap, I'll just leave it to my standards speaking only for me. As for Velvet Revlover, I could give or take there, just didn't spark with me, but I won't talk shit.
Kim - I got mine in the early morning hour when the server wasn't slammed.
Jason - It will, it will. We are in actual aggreement here. If anything, they may have a "Sanjia" amount of popularity before fizzling...kind of like Metallica's.
Doc - NO ONE will ever be like Cliff, ever. If Cliff was alive, he would do the same thing Jason did and leave, I saw him as a bit of a purist in his approach to bass and wouldn't dig the direction they were going. On the GNR thing, I think you've got something there.
Metallica lost their edge when they cut their mullets...
