All I can say personally is, how many of you hum to yourself a piece of shit like Sorry or Rhiad, but not find something like Ghost or Starlight, or even Kid Rock (who I hate) remotely catchy. Slash's songs have been stuck in my head since they came out, Axl's are just comedy banter over a few drinks in the pub. To me, this Slash album shows who can write a hook, a solo and something that sticks in the brain, and to me that is the sign of a good song. Something that sticks, and emotes rather than something that dies at the same time as the morbid curiousity that surrounds it.
So hes not pushing the envelope, big deal, if you love something, you love it for what it is. If not, go and listen to Shackler's Revenge. I'll give you a week til it gets lame.
Cheers

It's really too bad that so many can't fathom that others have differing opinions. See, you think that Slash's tunes dig into the brain like no other. That's your opinion. While I don't think it's even close to true and obviously many others on here don't agree with you either, I can still understand how it's your opinion. Not sure what's so damn hard to understand about that for so many.
Everyone has differing opinions, thats why my last post exists in the first place. Its all relative obviously. You like what you like, I like what I like, theres no need to be so defensive. I had an opinion so did you, I just happened to find yours amazing, on a GnR forum of all places, but that doesnt make it less valid.

#27 Re: The Sunset Strip » Faith No More Reunion CONFIRMED » 851 weeks ago
I'm listening to The Real Thing right now. Fuckin' great album. I love Zombie Eaters! FNM isn't really a band where I invested in the individual members like GNR, it was just the music. It's funny to see the wide opinions on the band's music. For me, Angel Dust is by far my least favorite. It's just like a tidal wave of noise to me. Weird, eh?
Anyone besides me see them on the GNR/Metallica tour in 92? Patton was wild, climbing the lighting rigs, just going nuts. They played Surprise, which I just went crazy for. It's such a brutal song.
Patton also played with Bucket in the short-lived Moonraker. That is some odd shit.
Just listened to Angel Dust - an all round classic. A tidal wave of noise, - that is weird considering some of the stuff BH has done! Give it another spin, and another, if you still dont like it, give it another!
Cannot wait to see these guys, I just hope it lives up to expectations. I caught Patton touring the first Tomahawk album and it blew me away. Met him in a record store the same day, strange guy.
#28 Re: The Sunset Strip » Faith No More Reunion CONFIRMED » 851 weeks ago
I will say if Billy Gould wasn't involved I wouldn't support this reunion or go to a show. FNM has awesome bass playing throughout their entire career.
If either Gould, Puffy, Roddy or Mike werent featured I wouldnt bother. Each of those guys are integral to the FNM sound. I wont pay to go to Download to see them though. If they dont do any gigs asides from that in the UK I'll be gutted beyond belief but Im not going to that Emo fest. I'm holding out for a 3 night stint at the Brixton Academy 
I see your username on Mouth of The Ocean. Im over there as Jizzlobber78 - dont post much though. Its funny seeing the one guy who is gutted about the reunion though. 
#29 Re: The Sunset Strip » Faith No More Reunion CONFIRMED » 852 weeks ago
At last! This is gonna be fantastic. The only band that I've wanted to reunite more than GNR. Heres hoping they play the Brixton Academy. A great venue, and FNM Live at the Brixton Academy was the first cd I ever bought about 19 years ago.
Shame no Jim - but hes too busy growing pumpkins I guess.

This looks terrible, but props to Adler for keeping himself busy when he needs to be. Probably wont be as gruesome or scary as Sober House though.
