So...Chinese Democracy
Inlander:
A reliably well-written review by Alexis Petridis in today's Guardian:

RedLion:
Appetite for Destruction is an overvalued but energetic and good album. They also did a great cover of Live and Let Die. Other than that, I've never had much interest in G'n'R.
Alex C:
My brother likes it; he says it's weird at times but that there's just about always something worth listening to in the mix. I myself am pretty ambivalent about the album and haven't really given it a full listen yet; so far it's not focused enough for my tastes but I don't really care about its gestation time or whether Axl is crazy or merely a perfectionist, so I am not about to just utterly dismiss it yet.
Alex C:
Blech.
Okay, yeah, now I'm ready to utterly dismiss it. Hey Axl, at least you nearly made it 10 minutes.
Christophe:
Good things about Guns 'n Roses:
-Inspired the 1-to-5 Axl rating system back when Buddyhead.com did record reviews.
-Eventually kept Scott Weiland off of smack for a few months. Oh, wait., that didn't actually happen.

What if that metallic bucket was Lars Ulrich's snare drum?
