Chinese Democracy
The first time I heard the song Chinese Democracy from the album titled the same I thought it was just noise. I felt that there was no flow between the different parts. It felt as if Axl just slapped together random bits and pieces and then stuck in some lyrics. Last night I was listening to the radio and sure enough the song came on. The DJ was explaining that the record sales have been bad, no one really likes the album and people prefer AC/DC to both Metallica and Guns. I found this funny since I hated the new AC/DC tracks for sounding so standard. I think people were liking the fact that the new AC/DC sounds a lot like the old AC/DC but I can’t stand that. I like the new Metallica because it takes old Metallica and changes it just enough.
Anyways, fast forward to this morning where I decided I would search youtube for some of the new songs. Sure enough I have found the whole album and can say that Chinese Democracy sounds a lot better but is no where near the awesomeness of some of the other songs. I would now say that C.D. is my favorite out of all the new albums with Metallica in second and will be going out to buy the CD later today. Which brings me to the next point. The RIAA is smoking crack. Listening to 30 second previews of songs is nice and all, but being able to listen to the full album on youtube has made me want to buy the CD.
