ABSURD! w/ Joe Feeney

On Today's Creative Control Daily, it's part two of our "Chinese Democracy" roundtable and review, eleven years after the album was released! We break down and give our thoughts on tracks 6-10, and discuss "Catcher In The Rye" (both the novel and the song,) Brian May vs. Bumblefoot, "TWAT," Slash's attempts to play "Chinese Democracy' solos at live shows, the perplexing additions of "Scraped" and "Riad," plus how Axl's concerns and obsessions over trends and keeping GNR "current" may have ultimately made the album sound dated.
