Traci Guns - Killing Machine

A bit of an oscure one. I picked this one up 3 years ago during my phase of everything G'n'R and G'n'R-related. Feel free to redirect this if need be, but I posted here because this is a surprisingly heavy album.

Thoughts on this album?

Heavy it is. Good? Not very. It's a slightly shinier than normal used bin turd. Not horrible, but still a bit stinky.

I got one at the 99 cent store. I remember reading about Tracii Guns being into Pantera and Prong at the time. It fails miserably at being a real metal album that was an attempt to get him a new heavy fan base. The music was decent but the singer and lyrics sucked!

Disappointing.

Never heard it but I've always been curious to. Doesn't sound like I've been missing much.

Is it similar to LA Guns' AMERICAN HARDCORE? Traci was kinda chasing the Pantera bandwagon on that album too.

I would say yes it is similar. It's the same singer if i'm not mistaken.

Got this one as a throw-in to a trade. Pretty lame album.

Honestly, sometimes I forget I even own this - and my collection isn't even that huge.

Sure, it may not be worth a regular listen, but I think this disc has its moments. Sometimes, the bland listens can be the most enjoyable. There's a real raw, old-school thrash mood to this album.

Thrash? I don't hear that at all.
