TeeJay410 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 It is one of the songs most neutered by the production. I still enjoy it, but the thin guitars, weird effects, and this might just be a me thing but Matt Sorum's decision to hit a tom instead of the snare during the verses drives me crazy. The production murdered most of UYI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Slash said that Axl has a hard time singing it live due to the spacing of the words in that song. However, I would LOVE to hear that live, especially since they played Coma. "Don't Damn Me" is awesome but I still don't feel the Appetite edge. Maybe if Izzy was louder in the mix.. On Appetite is dirty guitar tones are in your face.

The production murdered most of UYI. The more time goes by, the more I agree with this.. It really worked on some songs like the "Epics" just not so much on the rockers.. The "thin" guitars is what they suffer from the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DK6 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Their best video by a mile. Pretty boring and unremarkable song for me. Sort of song that if you asked me to hum or play the guitar riff I wouldn't have any recollection of how it sounded! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay410 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 It’s the closest approximation of what Axl would sound like on pure Slash solo music. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yourcrazy Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I never really liked this song and have always skipped over it. Dead horse and don’t damn me are kind of in the same category and in my opinion much better songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think i was focusing on the rest of the UYI videos which were crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I thought they would open with Garden of Eden on the Use Your De Ja Vu Tour 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlIsGod. Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Yeah I agree with most in here. Kind of filler tbh, Don't damn me is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeanur Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Had this song on the loop for hours and the video is cool. TBH I'm surprised many people here think it's a filler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) I like the Mates Rehersal version with Adler better! What a surpriseeee. Has more bounce. And I guess it’s nowhere to be found now since the great purge? Cool beanssss thanks guys. Production really takes the fun out of this one. I like it more than I used to, though... like most of the UYI stuff. Edited October 30, 2018 by Ant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well at least he was jazzing up the setlist abit and changing things compared to the predictable setlist we have now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bitchisback Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 YES!! Garden of Eden, Don't Damn Me and RNDTH are 3 of my favorite GnR tracks and 3 of the most undee appreciated IMO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
