GnRDuff1 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Everyone shits on Paul Huge constantly and everyone talks about how terrible he is/he broke the band up/what a douche etc etc. I was just looking at the album credits in CD and two of the songs I think are the best-written (not necessarily hardest rocking, but best from a songwriting standpoint) are Prostitute and CITR. He is given credit for BOTH songs and also TWAT, which is highly regarded around these parts as the album's masterpiece (not universally, but the majority). Do you think he was just given credit as lip service or should we maybe reconsider the fanbase's general opinion of the guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gagarin Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 not sure any credit was lip service, I think they really tried to keep track of who thought of what and who was on what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBrownstone Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 At first glance I thought the topic said HUGE tits. Maybe he did contribute some, but that won't change peoples opinion of him. At least not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty pathetic to dislike somebody just because a guitar player doesn't like him.Sounded like a clash of egos,or possibly a pissing match.Whatever,but Paul Huge/Tobias seems to catch flac for helping out by request of a longtime friend.I actually liked the Sympathy for the Devil cover,and fuck what Sorum says,seriously.

Flayer,you are entertaining the fuck outta me tonight,some of your posts are hilarious! . Please continue, the humor elevates the mood that is sometimes present.Nobody should "hate" Paul at all,for his contributions,or presence,or whatever else nonsense has been floating around over the years.

GnRDuff1 Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 Okay I'm very happy to hear all the positivity/netrality regarding him. I know it used to beb that he'd get bashed almost whenever possible. Hell, maybe it was just a couple people and they did it so often and with such venom that it seeped iinto my mind as how the fanbase at large felt about the guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voodoochild Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 He really helped not only writing songs, but also getting the foundations for several others. Also, he wasnt a bad guitar payer at all. At least he played the rhythm parts of Rocket Queen they way it should be, unlike Gilby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riddick Bowe Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Paul are given credit for Catcher in the rye, Twat, IRS and Prostitude on CD. As fare as i concern these are the songs that sounds most like Guns N Roses from the Illusion days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
