holymntn 75 Report post Posted November 8 They were never the same after Izzy left. All the other AFD guys are creatively useless without him. The fact that Duff is treated as more of a commodity (by the general public at least) is ridiculous. A large percentage of casual rock fans need the Guantanamo-esque So Fine treatment to see how redundant Duff is. By the same token, Izzy's pretty fucking useless without GN'R.

Ragnar 1,612 Report post Posted November 8 "Izzy wrote 'em all horseshit" again . You bet your asses he did n`t. As much of a dick as Axl is, he is and always the main creative force in the band. Yeah, yeah, I know it must be cool and edgy to spin the same bullshit over and over again but there comes a time when it should be put to rest for good. They did n`t release anything not because Izzy was n`t there but because Axl had his head far too deep up his ass. Rant over........ Run along now .........

Damn_Smooth 6,553 Report post Posted November 8 It's rather obvious that it took all of them together to write great music because none of them has been able to do so on their own. Morons can sometimes accomplish great things when you put them together. Most of the time it has the complete opposite effect, but once in awhile true genius happens. So yes, Izzy leaving did ruin the creativity of the band. In no way does he deserve sole credit for the creativity of the band though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bring back izzy 3,478 Report post Posted November 8 There are people on this board who talk mad shit about Izzy. Oh he can't play, he can't remember the parts, he can't do this or that, overrated, not that good. They're all morons. He was the anchor from which Axl and Slash tethered, musically.

I agree with you. I would add only that as a composer he is lacking, but as a guitarist he is not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barry 320 Report post Posted November 8 The bigger question, who wrote Axl's lyrics for him? Not that he was up there with the greatest, but some of them had their moments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
