My review and what I feel about individual songs, I have given the song name and my impression about each.
A lot more of synths used in the background, I just heard the songs a couple of times and the songs dont keep coming back, maybe they will later. Frankly the songs sound like Jam sessions and there is rather too much of singing and synths than lead. .
"Better": Frenzied lead, comes in stacatto riffs then starts flowing.
"Catcher in the Rye": Slow start something
like 'Yesterady'. Axl goes into high high pitch almost a falsetto not
much of lead but only synths to keep the tune.
"Crash Diet": Hey, a very little bit of
Flameco here for a couple of seconds in the begining, Songs starts
with Axil whining in the background as the lead builds up the tempo.
Leads sounds rather disjointed and does not flow with the songs,
sounds like the lead was patched in from recording sessions later
on.
"IRS": Some solid power chords here. Some
good, fast paced riffs here near the end.
"Madgascar": Played live (can hear some
Spanish translator at the begining when Axl introduces). The sound
sounds like some Chamber music with organs.
"Oh My God": Fast paced, sounds like death
metal but without the guttural singing. Some good lead of about 10
seconds midway in the song.
"Blues": Another live songs. slow one at the
begining then the power chords bang in. Some amount of lead but
enduring solos.
"TWAT": Synth sounds at the begining, good
lead somewhere in the begining and end. Some sizzling lead near the
end, but rather supporting the chorus.
If you are expecting something like 'Use your illussion' then forget it. If you want to brag that you have the songs, then download the stuff
