"Whether it's good or bad is almost irrelevant(it's bad, by the way), but the main thing is it's NOT Guns'n'roses, it's Axl Rose on the most expensive and long drawn out ego trip ever." Reply
"This album is laughably ignored and underrated in my opinion. It's better on every level than "St. Elsewhere" except it has no big hit like that album did. But it ably covers so much musical and emotional ground. The sad and mournful "Who's Gonna Save my soul" to the sample heavy dance of "Charit..." [+] Reply

"Each one of these 5 albums is great. Except each one of them has their own page on this website where you can give them the rating they deserve. So how about doing that instead of rating this redundant box set?" Reply

"Bristol's Fuck Buttons combine industrial reverb, ambient piano, church-like organs, guitar drones and electronic noise in a way that is sonically thrilling." Reply
