Did you read where it said that the record had been banned in China?  Is that true?

I don't doubt it, but hadn't heard this before...

Do you really think that the Chinese government would let an album called Chinese Democracy to be available in china...
I got nothing more to say.

No, but I hadn't read about an official ban...

Plus, I'm betting ther are a million or so pirate copies of this in China already...

reviews mean nothing to me, i will either like it or i wont, and no smart ass journalist is gonna influence my decision :finger:
I could wile away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain

Yeah, but you've got to remember that this is a newspaper that put tits, kiss and tell stories and the latest from the big brother house ahead of international affairs and politics. You can't expect them to get everything right, the sun's not the most serious or accurate newspaper in the world.

That said, it's one of the most widely read publications in the United Kingdom, so at least they gave it an OK review. Or a review at all for that matter.

I'll be interested to here what replaces May's solo though.
I like what Josh did, but I prefer Ratpigeon's feel.

The review made some good points, the biggest of them being;

"No one else on the planet is making music like this at the moment"

prairieboy,

No one mainstream that we know of right?

I agree that it's a unique music that I never hear tho.
