Chinese Democracy

I don't know if anyone caught this, but the AV Club has a really great review of Guns N' Roses' "new" album Chinese Democracy written by Chuck Klosterman. It's worth reading and I find it especially engaging because Klosterman seems to be as amused by the process as the product, although for entirely different reasons. It's an album I think most people are going to have to listen to, but it's hard for me to believe that the band will be able to release anything that sounds relevant after 15 years of sequestering themselves in a studio. Oh, and by band I actually just mean Axl Rose, who is fucking insane. Anyway, you can read the interview here.

Comments:
I read it... his approach is one that provides validity in his argument about the music, and definitely creates a new scope through which we can analyze a given art form (or a man's insanity). either way it's totally worth reading.
