I mean theres some pretty rapey stuff on Appetite

"Ya get nothin' for nothin'
If that's what ya do
Turn around bitch I got a use for you
Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do
And I'm bored"

Pretty awful.

But while I dont like their themes, the sound of the music is so dang good and Slash is incredilbe <_<.

But thats also why my favorite GNR album is probably Use your Illusion II

Estranged <3

This is a great post. Officially. I mean, my gut reaction is to post the John Goodman rage gif. But...

Help Help and Habit are of equal quality. Both are fuckin' excellent.

The sequencing of the first 6 tracks is great. Then it's a bit of a mess. Good material just shambolic sequencing.

You probably haven't listened to Get Right, Cropduster, or Ghost yet. Do that and report back.

Thumbing is a chore for me. Matt phones it in. Ed is mediocre. It's the start of Ed songs that don't belong in PJ.

Undone would be two and down six or seven if I included them.

7-14 are all fairly close, and a large step back from 1-6
