Guns and Roses: who is more important

[Cerveza mas fina]

Whats the dealio brethern?

[Himu]

Lol white people music featuring a half black man as lead guitarist but yea, both help the ensemble.

[nachobro]

if either are gone, then its not GNR

duff is cool and all but he can't carry that shit

[Snoopycat_]

Izzy Stradlin. The man, the maverick, out there on the edge, breakin all the rules, searchin for justice in the mean streets on his metal horse

[headwalk]

love trying to studiously learn slash solos note for note like a massive aspie before acknowledging that the bloke was probably buzzed out of his brain and having his cock sucked while recorded it and never played it the same when again.

So 1/10th of the band was black?

I always found them better than the sum of their parts. Slash had many different projects over the years which were meddling at best. Same goes for Axl, Duff and Izzy. That combination works because all their ideas can bounce off each other, filter out some of the worst aspects and build from there, with the added bonus of them trying to kill each other during the process.

Ill admit I love Chinese Democracy, for me without axls voice there is no GnR but you probably have a good point

[Human Snorenado]

I mean a GNR album came out without Slash so, you know. Question kinda answers itself but Stro is basically right.

[TVC15]

My ass has rarely been rocked harder.

Axl's voice

Slash's guitar parts can be replicated by others, Axl's voice can not

why would you want to replicate it

[Transhuman]

Lol? Is this even a debate? Roses is way more important. If the band had been called Guns n' no-one would have even given a shit about them

[Tasty]

Guns.

No wait, roses. No wait, guns!

...I'm gonna go with roses.

[Akala]

100% Axl but they are better together.

Tracii Gunns is crying somewhere right now

[bork]

I have to go with Axl, but Slash and the rest are right behind.

No "let's laugh at Guns N Roses" thread is complete without this:



The stormtrooper mask fucking up the guitar solo at around the 3:01 mark

Almost as bad as Axl's voice.
