there is no dana only zool Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Man.. if the world needs anything right now it more demonstrations of people being bigger than their petty emotions...truth is together these two rocked the world against huge fucking odds. See, I disagree really strongly. First, it's probably offensive to Axl (or anyone for this matter) to call his emotions "petty" seeing as how we aren't in his shoes and probably don't know the full extent of his feelings. Speaking personally (and I'm sure others can relate, too), if someone were to say something like, "Oh c'mon, suck it up and get out there" knowing full-well that I fucking HATE, HATE, HATE the person/situation I'm supposed to "get out there with" just because it pleases others, I'd be livid. Fuck that. Look, being someone of a Christian faith, I'm all for reconciliation- but sometimes reconciliation just ain't healthy. The next best thing? Just move on. Axl clearly has.Don't think it's quite fair to ask people that really don't wanna be around each other to "put aside" differences for the amusement of others, just like some ppl are better off divorced.I think Axl made his viewpoint more than clear in the interviews-"unfortunate as it may be one of us will die before a reunion" and "Slash is a cancer better removed,the less heard from him and his followers the better" are 2 examples that come to mind. that leaves little to the imagination.Yes exactly. Glad to see I've been seconded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Slash's solo album would be a lot cooler if it had Michael Jackson and Axl Rose on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMo13 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Slash's solo album would be a lot cooler if it had Michael Jackson and Axl Rose on it.As long as Slash wrote the music and not some guys who were hired to sit in a studio for a few years to come up with material. That leads to hook free outdated music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Slash was asked the same question in his recent short interview with Maxim, but he just said the year any nothing else because he said it always stirs up shit or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the widsom.It's probably closer to the truth then going off of someone's baseless opinions.WTTJ, Nightrain, Out Ta Get Me, Mr. Brownstone, Paradise City, SCOM, You're Crazy, Rocket Queen, Garden of Eden, Coma, Locomotive, Civil War, Dont Damn Me, Dust N Bones, Not to mention songs like NR and Estranged which were made epic with the help of Slash's amazing guitar parts. Rhythm and solo parts. Just because his name isnt on the song doesnt mean he wasnt a huge contributing factor to the song.All those are songs slash is given credit for. Without Slash, GNR would have gotten no where. Simple as that. Same goes for the other members.I never said he didn't contribute, but Izzy was the main song writer. Go listen to Snakepit, and then go listen to Izzy's shit. It's obvious who did what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITW 2012 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I've always thought that Axl and Izzy helped Slash write songs based around the guitar parts that he would bring them. SCOM would be a good example of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young_Gun Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Not one original member was responsible for the success that GnR had, that came from the combination of the 5 of them. Saying Slash is the reason why GnR hit big is as stupid as saying Axl was the reason that GnR made it big or Izzy, or Duff etc. Slash's lead playing was spectacular for sure, his solos are very memorable and melodic. Axl's vocals were/are mindblowing. Izzy's song writing and rhythm work was a standout. Duff's bass work was bumping(think Rocket Queen, You could be mine, So easy etc) and melodic, he didn't just hit root-notes of what the guitarist was playing like say Metallica's bassists(post Cliff) did. While Steven's drumming was loose and totally rocking. Anyone that say it was solely because of Slash OR Axl is delusional. Everyone knows a killer solo cannot save a bad song, just like a killer vocalist can't save a bad song, get over your bias.On topic i think Slash gave a cool answer but when he blames alot of the tension on the media, he forgets that he constantly sued Axl year after year wasting time and money. He isn't so open about that part now is he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
