If you associate Guns N’ Roses with something beyond Paradise City and Sweet Child ‘O Mine, go out and buy Chinese Democracy. It’s like opening up a time capsule from 20 years ago, filled with things you’ve never seen yet feel so familiar.

I’m not exactly sure why I feel so compelled to recommend it, but the more I listen, the more I’m wanting to make sure that those who have long since written the album off don’t miss it.

i used to listen to GNR *every* day when AFD came out. now, listening to it again is like watching Buck Rogers in reruns. maybe i’m just old.

I’d say this is more like watching a new set of episodes from then that somehow you’ve never seen. Seriously, give it a go.

Okay, fine, it *is* good, especially a couple times into it. Whatever.
(That’s about as gracious as I am going to be about publicly conceding you were right.)

i think my tastes have shifted. your sample make me shake my fist and yell ‘damn kids! turn down that music!’
