Overall the album is disappointing. Maybe it was spoilt by a decade of hype, maybe by the departure of the majority of the original lineup.The fact that the album took over a decade to produce is evident, as one can deduce genre shifts between songs which cover what was 'in' at the time. Title track 'Chinese Democracy' is reasonable, but is still missing that 'something'. I'd say 'for die-hard fans only', but even that might be a push - it's essentially not the same band. If you've not heard any Guns N' Roses before, then 'Chinese Democracy' might pass as reasonable, but when compared to gems such as 'Use Your Illusion' it leaves a lot to be desired. Buy the Greatest Hits if you want to enjoy what this band has to offer.
