1 star THE BEST GnR' COVERBAND EVER!!!!
no not really. slash said the he wanted velvet to sound like guns n' roses. not even close. you think a junkie like scott weiland can take axl roses place?!?! nope. it was really sad to see velvet live and skinny scott did not know the words to the guns songs the band was performing. this album has a forced sound. overall weak. slash's solos don't have that punch or intensity that he had with axl and izzy. now that scott bailed on the band are they going to treat him like axl? talk crap about him and blame their down fall on him? i hope so cause' 15 years of talking trash about axl is very OLD news. oh yeah, didn't slash, duff, and matt walk out on guns n' roses. for all the velvet fans that have this very strange beef w/the new guns lineup. buy the new scott weiland cd, smoke crack...shoot up some junk and be all LA rock n' roll and sh1t..LMAO.

1 star Boo! Bad copy protection!
Won't play properly in my computer, can't rip my own mp3 files from it. is this what it's come to? I'm supposed to have the right to unrestricted personal use of the music I buy and this CD doesn't meet that criteria. It's DEFECTIVE and I won't lets artists and labels that try to do this use my money to do so.

4 stars 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....

3 stars 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.

4 stars 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.

Audioslave CD  (2002)

Contraband album
CD $9.35  4.4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
AUDIOSLAVE was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album. "Like A Stone" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance. A modern day super-group composed of ex-members of heavy rock titans Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave was subject to some pretty high fan expectations. Luckily, the group delivers just what the doctor ordered: a seamless mix of the styles that made the individual members famous. Basically a stoner rock record par excellence, AUDIOSLAVE strips the genre down to its core, serving up one pile-driving riff after another with minimal, but perfectly placed, production flash. In any given song, the band repeats said riffs with even ...

Guns N' Roses Greatest Hits CD  (2004) Remastered; Digipak

Contraband CD music
CD $10.39  4.2 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Hard-rock juggernauts Guns 'N' Roses arrived as rock & roll saviors in a dark time of generic hair metal and bloated pop. With only five studio albums to draw from (one being the all-covers SPAGHETTI INCIDENT), nearly a third of the material on GREATEST HITS is unsurprisingly devoted to other people's songs. Inclusions range from a dramatic version of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heavens Door" and an outsized take on Paul McCartney's "Live and Let Die" to punk classic "Ain't It Fun" and doo-wop nugget "Since I Don't Have You." The band's original songs, however, are the heart of G'N'R's appeal. Start with the quintessential heavy-rock anthem "Welcome to the Jungle." Amid the thunderous time-keeping and tasty riffing are slinky grooves, sexy swagger, and quite an aura of danger. The acoustic ...

Green Day American Idiot CD  (2004)

Contraband music CDs
CD $15.65  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Rock opera and punk are usually two mutually exclusive musical styles. Then again, Green Day has never followed any rock rulebook, so it's not entirely surprising that the trio crafted a punk-rock opera that takes the Bush administration and its policies to task. It doesn't get any more pointed than a couplet from the frenetic title cut that states, "I'm not a part of a redneck agenda/Now everybody do the propaganda!" Under the guidance of any other group of agitated punks, the results of such an undertaking could easily become didactic. But with creative spearhead Billie Joe Armstrong at the ...

Audioslave Out Of Exile CD  (2005)

Contraband songs
CD $10.39  3.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
OUT OF EXILE presents a band that has grown comfortably into its own skin. Three years after Audioslave's highly successful debut, the supergroup crafted a truly formidable rock album with a fresh, live-in-the-studio rawness. Former Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello rolls back the distortion subtly, playing with a notably more melodic touch, best evidenced on "Heaven's Dead" and "Dandelion." Soundgarden's Chris Cornell's weathered voice at times walks a perilous ledge, yet never to a fault--that very danger and heartfelt soulfulness are part and parcel of his revered approach. The heady and poetic "#1 ...
