What keeps Tales from the Strip from being a truly great album is twofold: (a) the complete disappearance of founding member Tracii Guns, and (two) the lack of cohesion between songs. Tales from the Strip is L.A. Guns' homage to the sleaziest strip of land in L.A. for glam rockers of decades past. But this could have been a fantastic song cycle with a little forethought. It's a commonly known fact that every metal band should have a reasonable concept album within their discography, and with over two decades' worth of releases under their belts the Guns are long overdue. Small thematic misstep aside, the band's performance song after song doesn't really shatter expectations or break any genre-cemented rules. It's simply rock & roll (aside from the gratuitous "haunting" acoustic number) for those who want to rock without stuffy conceptualism bogging it down. ~ Rob Theakston

4 stars Excellent !
Traci who? CD would get 4.5 stars. No filler at all, pure rock n roll. LA Guns continue to rock and this release is a gem. The sound of LA Guns is very unique and they did not stray.

4 stars Back to Hollywood
One of the best CDs by an 80s metal band this decade. These songs feel like they came right out of the Sunset Strip days of the 80s. "Vampire" is an instant classic. Way to go LA Guns for putting out music your fans really want to hear, instead of trying to sound like something you're not.

3 stars Still Going At It
L.A. Guns appear to still be going strong after all these years, even after losing Tracii Guns. Though this is not the Guns best album, it certainly isn't the worst. In fact, this may be their best album since 'Hollywood Vampires.' L.A. Guns in 2005 seem to have injected a little punk into their sound, as well as maybe a little Velvet Revolver. Though there is some filler on this album, mostly the instrumentals, at least 9 out of 14 songs hit the nail squarely on the head. If you havn't listened to L.A. Guns in a while and want to relive those days when all you used to think of was booze and chicks, then pick this up.
