Chinese Democracy is a concept…just a concept…
“Chinese Democracy”, sounds like an oxymoron..kinda like the actual album! I will not for one second sit here and preach about Guns N Roses and their influence on the music industry during the mid-80s / early 90s. I won’t discredit them for their previous success. But after giving Chinese Democracy (their extremely highly anticipated and over-blown “homecoming” into the new-millenium) a thorough listen-through, I look back on all that they’ve accomplished and have begun to second guess some of those achievements. Like Jordan playing baseball and then going back to Basketball (again); Chinese Democracy seems like a great concept and not so-hot when manifested. I am sure to get a lot of flack from people after posting this, but I ask you to listen to the album and honestly ask yourself “was this worth a 17 year wait?”
