Re: Chinese Democracy Chart Positions Thread
I think Padmasana is better than anything Slash has ever recorded. Yes, better than the SCOM & NR solos, better than the riffs to Jungle & Nightrain.
I'd put the TWAT solo up against anything from the old era with Slash. I also think the If The World & Sorry solos are quite soulful, and the IRS & Prostitute solos are pretty damn rockin'.
I also prefer instrumentally, quite a few Bucket performed old era songs from 2002, to their originals.
Bucket might have not done anything as 'legendary' as Slash, but that's once again Slash fans measure talent and quality on success and popularity, not the actual worth of the music.

How are u judging worth though?
I'll take kick ass amazing riffs and heartfelt solos that make my heart bleed and my dick hard over what sounds like a thousand angry bees and a bunch of effects and stuff.

Slash is Guns N' Roses. Buckethead is not Guns N' Roses. That's it. It doesn't take away the FACT that BH is an amazing player. But he should have never joined Guns N' Roses. What's next, he'll replace Keith Richard in the Stones?
To tell the truth, none of the post-Slash era lead guitarist should have joined Guns N' Roses. I know they were paid and it was a great chance for them to become famous, but you just don't replace Richard, Perry, Page or Slash etc. You just don't do it if you have self-respect, cause it's not right. They could have begun a new band with Axl. The result would have been better.
Re: Chinese Democracy Chart Positions Thread
I wonder if CD would've been better had Axl kept his OMG direction.
A part of what makes CD not that great is how some songs sound like a bunch of guys trying to play like other guys and it comes off kind of generic
Like Scott Stapp when he did that solo album. that song The Great Divide sounds like a poor man's Mark Tremonti
Some of the stuff on CD sounds like guys listened to Appetite over and over and tried to emulate Slash's sound which is why I hate Robin Finck. Its like a tone deaf dude singing in the shower.
