I'am psychic, I know that whenever anyone puts up a post about something that seen by many to be good, it will get slated on this board.
1) "This board" is not a unitary entity, it's a loose concatenation of individuals. Therefore for "this board" to slate something or somebody is an impossibility.
2) You're not psychic, you're a dripping billy goat's penis.
3) You obviously "know" diddlysquat or you wouldn't have been daft enough to make three howlers in your first sentence.
Read anyone of the post on this thread and you will find that the people who don't like G'n'R's are also people who don't like axle rose. I'm not defending axle as I know he is a terrible person at times, but to say the music was dreadful or like one person to say they like 'it's so easy' and not like any of their other work is to take hyprocisy and worship it.
Steaming piles of horsecrap.
It's perfectly conceivable for someone to like a single track by an artist or group but to think the rest of their output is a pile of pony. I've got a couple of hundred 7"s by artists where I've only liked a single track, and shitlaods of mp3s for the same reason, the point being they're the only thing I own by that artist because they're the only track I like.
Most people who say they like the entire discography tend to be either serious fanboys/fangirls (in which case "like" should really read "obsessively worship") or they're the sort of uncritical soul who "like" all music, usually as aural candyfloss.
Me, I didn't/don't like GnR because they did nothing for me. They weren't as heavy as Motorhead, their guitarists, while very accomplished, played the generic "overdriven Les Paul" sound, and their singer whined like a baboon, add to that the usual juvenile sex, violence and drugs HM lyrics and to me they just didn't say or do anything new.
