Slash: To tell you the truth: I already listened to it. At first I thought that I would never listen to it until it's released, but someone handed it to me and I was in my car and I was like, "Okay, let's give it a try." So I listened to it: It's a really good record. It's very different from what the original GUNS N' ROSES sounded like, but it's a great statement by Axl. Now you understand where he was heading all this time. It's a record that the original GUNS N' ROSES could never possibly make. And at the same time it just shows you how brilliant Axl is. So it was a relief for me to actually hear it.
You say your not sure what questions asked in my interview, yet you go ahead and post an interview yourself that definitely has nothing to with what the two of us are talking about...
Okay then.
It absolutely has to do with it. You say all of Slash's interviews are basically about blaming Axl... Well there is another interview, full question and full answer, tell me where this evil mean Slash is talking trash and blaming Axl.

Here ya go...
I'll just repost this... I think this perfectly summarizes what Slash is basically saying every time he does interviews,
"Yeah you know I love Axl, but.... it was all his fault, you it's just him he's a nutter. "

Re: Slash to Axl: "Whatever, Dude."
I don't understand the need to take sides.
Both Axl and Slash are phenomenal musicans who upon their death will be remembered as amongst the most talented rock musicans to have lived. They've both given a lot to music as an art, and with any luck will continue to do so.
When dealing with the disintegration of a friendship and business partnership it's obvious both sides would have strong emotions, and when asked endlessly by a media hungry for gossip and drama about the other, it's only a matter of time before either of them say something unplesent.
That we can find incidents where Slash or Axl have said this kind of thing after 15 years of questions doesn't surprise me - or prove anything other than that their friendship still has its problems.
I think Slash is a kickass guitarist, and Axl is a kickass vocalist. That's all that matters to me.

It isn't about taking sides, for me, I think both sides are guilty of destroying that band. It's about honesty, and to a lesser degree accountability.
You have a person posting an exaggeration, then reiterates it on another post, then when called out on the fact that it's an exaggeration they lie about ever posting it. To date he still hasn't produced evidence of his claim, except a sound bite with an unknown context.
I have my opinions of Axl, which were mostly formed as a result of the hit pieces he has done on Slash, stuff that, by all accounts of how Slash is, are obvious lies and exaggerations... Unless of course you think Slash is really showing up at GnR shows with his guitar. I take exception to someone having a prefabricated interview, where he runs down someone else, for the sake of trying to sell an album that simply isn't selling the way it should have. None of that matters in this case though.
