Album Review

What keeps Tales from the Strip from being a truly great album is twofold: (a) the complete disappearance of founding member Tracii Guns, and (two) the lack of cohesion between songs. Tales from the Strip is L.A. Guns' homage to the sleaziest strip of land in L.A. for glam rockers of decades past. But this could have been a fantastic song cycle with a little forethought. It's a commonly known fact that every metal band should have a reasonable concept album within their discography, and with over two decades' worth of releases under their belts the Guns are long overdue. Small thematic misstep aside, the band's performance song after song doesn't really shatter expectations or break any genre-cemented rules. It's simply rock & roll (aside from the gratuitous "haunting" acoustic number) for those who want to rock without stuffy conceptualism bogging it down.

Great album

Without question there best album, Stacey Blades blows away Tracii Guns on Guitar. Must have for any RnR fan

THIS IS WHAT I WANTED....

This is what I wanted after Cocked and Loaded and Hollywood Vampires. It's every bit as good and catchy as Cocked and Loaded, and in my opinion, better track for track that Hollywood Vampires. These are all great songs. Preview tracks 1,2,5, and 6 and you'll know exactly what you're getting. SO VERY GLAD to have run across this today. I can't believe that I overlooked it. I miss Tracii in this band but.....

LOL

Nobody in this band is from Los Angeles ,,,,,,
