 As close to Guns as youll ever get
If your a Slash fan then this album is for you. Weilands songwriting and vocals fit perfect with Slash. Duff and Matt hold the fort down as usual, this album rocks....

 I expected more
With all this talent and experience, I was expecting to be blown away. The music was excellent and the lyrics are great, just didn't quite seem to come together through the whole cd. Songs like Slither and Superhuman tear it up. The cd is well balanced with some softer but more powerful hits like Fall to Pieces - my personal favorite.Then out of nowhere a song like You got No Right makes you stop and make sure the same cd is still playing because it comes out of nowhere and just uncharacteristically stinks, ruining the whole feeling the album had got you to at that point. Maybe if I could take my favorite songs and mix them on my own cd with a few of my other favorite G&R or STP Riffs, I'd feel like I had a more complete experience. But the technical control Media Max has placed over a cd I have bought and paid for ruins even that possibility. Ironically, you can still copy the whole disc, just can't make your own mix cd. I recommend going on line and buying just the few songs you like from a media store, and save your money for the next complete cd, which will hopefully have chemistry in it's entirety.

 Well worth the money
There were two cuts that lost me but there were several surprises. Besides Slither and Fall to Pieces, cuts 9 (Set Me Free) and 12 (Dirty Little Thing)should be hits on the radio. Why arn't they playing these? This is a good album well worth the money invested.

 Great combination!!!!!!!!!!!
If you are a fan of either Guns & Roses or STP you'll like this combination of efforts. Scott's vocals to the music of Guns & Roses is a great mix. They've done a fantastic job of combining the styles of both bands to form a great new band.

 Cool
This cd isn't quite what I expected, but the more I listen to it the better I like it. Slither rocks my socks off, though.
