The songs are the same, but a lot of it is cleaned up - a bunch of the sounds were tightened and the mix was sweetened a bit (EQ'd better).

Give it a second listen - it's up on YouTube somewhere. . .

I will say though, that the main reason I like it is that structurally, it's Guns N' Roses, and sonically, it's not any one thing from the last 15 years; if you're used to having your "rock" sound a particular way, you may be gravely disappointed.

Despite those measures, the band is still waiting for its apology.
apologize for what? that axl sucks as a musician and took a decade and a half to release new material?

"The door to a lawsuit being filed is always open until the fans are taken care of and Dr Pepper has done the right thing," Soriano told CNN.
really? sue over not getting a 20oz bottle of dr pepper? is this how they want to be remembered?
