I am not a huge fan of TSI, really i thought it kind of sucked. And I don't know how many times talking about Guns N Roses i've heard, "damn that band was great up until TSI, what the hell was that about?" I get the album, but I just don't think it was very good.  smoking

I like TSI, at the time it was released GNR were very overexposed I think-it also would have been interesting to hear the punk cover album it was originally intended to be, but otherwise I think it''s a good album.

I think it would have gotten a better reception if it came BETWEEN albums.  But it's what the old GNR left us with, and so it seems odd, as their final musical statement is a cover album.  And, usually, cover albums are things that hardcore fans and completists buy.  The fact that it's as well known as it is shows the quality of GNR.

Anyway, this one would make my top 5:

Led Zeppelin - In Through the Out Door

Some asshole on the rs site listed Motley Crue - Motley Crue as being one of the worst.  How intelligent...I'll just criticize an album because everyone else does!  That album fucking rocks!  If you don't think of it as Motley Crue and, thus, try to compare it to the Vince Neil stuff, then you'll realize how much it rules.  In fact, it's one of their BEST albums...it just sounds different than most Crue.

You are in the minority putting TSI ahead of Illusion II.  TSI is a cover album it is not a great album it has some great songs on it but overall not a very good album.  But I hate most bands from the 80's so nut surprising.  Only exception is Guns n Roses and NIN

TSI? is up there for what it was not for the music.  It is up there because it was the last GNR album and compared to the other albums its awful.  I think it would be very hard to find someone who lists TSI? as anything other than the worst GNR album.  That doesnt mean its bad, but what album would you put ahead of it, how many gnr fans list TSI? as their favorite album.  It was also the last album, theres been nothing since.  When you release an album and it doesnt do as well commercially or critically as the others and then you dont make another album, its going to lead to the assumption that the album was bad.  This had nothing to do with the music or comparing it to anyone else.

Use Your Illusion I (1991)

Well RS is RS. TSI is a good album. I don't listen to it a lot, but I don't listen to much Gn'R anyways anymore. Burned out on it.

TSI is a great album. It had 1 top 60 hit in SIDHY. The album peaked at #4 and has sold 1 million copies in the states, can't argue that.

RS are retarded for this article.

All these lists fuckin blow chunks.

? But RS does a fuckin great job in being the best at these terrible lists. It would be cool if one day someone made a list of the worst lists of all time. Now that would be fuckin' cool.


as for TSI it's exactly what it is a punk cover album and a good one at that.

? ? The person that mentioned the Motley (94) albumas worst deserves to be shot and pissed, this is a very, very good album just came out at the wrong time. Same goes with Subhuman Race from Skid Row another very strong album but at this time both bands could have released the second coming of Back and Black and it would have stunk with the critics and with the fans...it just wasnt Alice in Chains or Pearl Jam?

If we could all time travel back to '93-'97 or so, when the original GNR was the only GNR, you'd understand how disappointing this CD was.

It just made no sense to the world...

GNR toured well over 2 years for the UYI CDs, putting out single after single, video after video the entire time (Estranged came out in '93!!)
Plus, people really thought GNR had become sort of a rock n' roll joke by then. (Biker shorts, riots, backup singers, etc)

Then when you think about the fact that Grunge was at its peak in '93, for GNR to come out with this "punk" CD was just a joke. How is it possibly a punk CD with Since I Don't Have You and Hair Of The Dog and such...

Then when you look at the fact that Axl doesn't even sing lead on half the songs... It's just not what people wanted/expected.

I think it really nailed the coffin shut on GNR in the 90s.
