OK, gotta admit, I have a love-hate relationship with Slash's music. As a human, the guy seems like kind of a dweeb, but his guitar playing and tone are far more respectable than I'm always willing to admit, and this album is a good example. The album sounds like what you would have expected GNR to release as a follow-up to Appetite for Destruction, and it also demonstrates where the main songwriting strength of GNR was -- very cool tunes and tough grooves. There are a few guitarist/singer combos that have something special to them -- Mick Jagger & Keith Richards, Robert Plant & Jimmy Page, Dave Navarro & Perry Farrell. I consider Axl Rose & Slash to have been another. Singer Eric Dover (formerly guitarist for the amazing Beatles/Supertramp/Queen/Badfinger-sounding 80s phenomenon Jellyfish as well as singer for the very rockin' glam band Imperial Drag) delivers vocals that don't quite measure up to that standard, but they're certainly very good, and have enough of an Axl quality to them at times that you can momentarily feel like you're listening to a GNR song. If you liked Guns N Roses (pre-Chinese Democracy?!), you'll like this album.Read full review
I love Slash as a guitar player. and i think the musisc is pretty good. Not quite the caliber of Guns & Roses, but very decent and well worth listening to. On the other hand I think Slashs' choice of lead singer was definitley a bad choice. The singer just does too much screaming and screeching. and not enough singing. He's like a bad 80's hard rock singer, that shouldn't be on this album. The music is good and enjoyable, but the singing ruins it for me. 1 play through was enough. I'm glad Slashs' new band Velvet Revolver has got an awesome line-up.
Great quality
