Here Today... Gone To Hell!

SLash features on a song called  'what I want'  :hihi:

poor slash, how low can you go?

whos "daughtry"?

I'm a big slash fan, but he seems to be doing A LOT of guest appearances lately.  Unless it's Roger Daltrey, then i'm all for it. :peace:

Isnt daughtry that guy from american idol? ???

Oh dear. :crying:

So, guest appearing on an up and coming artist's album is "Low"?

I think it's very cool that Slash has been doing these guest appearances lately, it shows that he has respect for the newer bands and that's pretty cool.


As for the rest of you who are judging Mr. Daughtry because he was on american idol, check out the song first, it's actually pretty good and Slash does a great job, If anyone wants the song, just PM me and i'll upload it to megaupload for you.  :beer:

NO SLASH STOP THIS BULLSHIT!!!!!


Slash is the greatest guitarist of all time and will always be my hero but playing with American Idols is fuckin LAME!!!!!!


I know Richie Sambora did also with Bo Bice and yes that was fucking LAME also.

Yeah, playing and creating new music is LAME!

Listen to the fucking song before you bash it first? Eh?

Yeah I hate American Idol just as much as everyone, but when someone gets up there trying to do rock music, unlike all of those Britney Spears Wannabe whores, i'll give them a chance.

That guy was nothing more than a pisspoor Fuel rip-off.? I think it's cool though that Slash helped him out, more power to him.? I don't have to like it to tip my hat off.?

Dude at least Britney didnt need some Lame TV show to get famous.


That dude covered Bon Jovi's wanted Dead or Alive and it was HORRIBLE!!!!!!

Makes it hard to talk shit about Nsync Fortus when Slash is playing with American GOd Damned Idols

Well I can definetely see your point man, I don't like American Idol, but I do like this song...

and I never wathced the show so I didn't see his cover of dead or alive...  and about forust playing with N Sync... well yeah thats pretty lame, but if it pays the bills?  :hihi:

You bash Richard for doing session work before he was in GNR to feed his family, yet you praise slash when he works with boybands and american idol rejects (and its not liek he has to do it to feed his family, slash has money). Thats fucked up and hypocritical.

Perhaps you forget to remember that little thing called the "Mickey Mouse Club."  That show got a lot of people their start in show business.

Well, on the bright side, Slash is exposing himself to a different generation of fans so if this creates new Slash/VR/GNR fans than its not all bad.

However, Daughtry is just bad so it's disappointing he just chose some bland, unoriginal, cookie-cutter musician to work with.

Did I bash richard? No, he's my favorite guitarist in the current line up in Gn'R, I just said yeah I can understand why fortus would play with N' Sync, if I was given the offer, hell I would do it too. Good money.

yeah queen is such a sell-out too for being on American Idol...  ::)

well whatever you say he's still 10000x richer and more famous than you

How the fuck were Queen on American idol?

Freddie Mercury would never go on that show.


Slash is my hero but I cant defend this dumb shit.


Slash is still my fav guitarist but lets dont be dick suckers on this forum and suck on his balls regardless.

If Axl,Slash,jon Bon Jovi,Prince who yes I got very pissed when he was on AI or Kiedis whoever.

When someone I like does something I dont agree with, I will call them on it. Doesnt mean I dont like them

U dont have to love everything someone does to be a fan.

Some of u just never realized that.


U can criticize something someone does and still be a fan.

U dont have to be their personal cockholster to be a fan.

Playin with American Idols is fuckin lame.


So call me what u want but i dont see how u type with all that cock in your hand.

Whoa there's a lot of cock talk in that last post....but sheesh..I'm not so much anti-American Idol as I am anti-Daughtry because this guy sucks so much ass.? AI has spawned some pretty damn good singers like Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson (hey her image might be shit, but she can sing her ass off).? If Slash would have jammed on Taylor Hicks album, I wouldn't have minded, but that Daughtry dude is just shit....he's everything that's wrong with "rock 'n roll" music these days.

And yes Queen was on American Idol.......Freddie's dead, but the remaining members were on the show and that constitutes their approval of it.

Wouldnt have done it if Freddie were alive.

Taylor Hicks is worse than Daughtry


Seriously

I dont want Slash turning into a joke LIke Dave Navarro

That's a very opinionated statement, because if anyone....Freddie was a huge fan of music and anyone that could sing.  I guarantee Freddie would have been right up there beside Simon commenting on how he thought the singers on AI did. 

right on.




Just because the guy was on american idol doesnt mean shit, he was trying to get a record deal and hes a good singer. How well he writes is a different story.

Was Slash selling out when he played on some MJ songs too?

Maybe he likes to play guitar in is spare time with people who want a decent solo on their record... nah only sellouts and losers do that ::)

The song is simple, but, I like the solo and what slash brought on this song!!  He has a couple squeals that remind me of Zakk Wylde!  Its in Drop D, with a half step down, so C#...  There are some cool fills slash does and the solo is awesome.  He is such an awesome player.  Its like nickelback music, but Slash takes that song to another level!  It rocks in my opinion, because Slash makes it rock.  Clive asked him, so he did it, big deal.

where's the damned song!!!!.....so I can judge.

Here is a tv show it is featured on.  The music is the song.  Slash is on lead.

WOW, that's pretty good.  I think he needs Slash on the whole albulm :hihi:!

I agree!  It is pretty dam good!  Take away the solo's and the song is so cut and dry, but Slash adds so much!  I love it!

its okay. pretty generic song in itself without slash's solo which makes it decent. 

I don't watch American Idol, but I've heard this album isn't bad.  Not that that means anything...though I'll check out a Slash guest appearance.

I never even heard of the dude until this...

just wondering, is clive davis behind daughtry's album? i wonder if slash did this as a favor to him?

the album debuted at #3 with over 300K sold. top first week for a rock debut in at least 15 years (soundscan era).

freddie mercury would not have gone on american idol.  god damn do some of you even know what american idol is?  the artists that win have little to no creative freedom and they have to do exactly what the record company wants.  im sure there is some sort of contract they have to sign before they hit tv.  freddie mercury would know this and would never go on the show.

It's just too fuckin' funny seeing all of you guys (especially D) judging the song before listening to it. You know, the song is actually pretty good. God damn, some of you were acting like Slash was playing for Jessica Simpson. Too bad you judged the material before listening to it. ::)

You get all frustrated when people speak out unbalanced opinions on Guns N' Roses but then in turn do the same shit when it comes to Daughtry, unbelievable. If you hear it and don't like it, then fine, but don't just come on here blasting the shit away without giving the tune a chance.

Yeah, V-Revolver used to hold that record (ironically).

Haha I'm still laughing at you people....Let me ask you this...Do you even know who Freddie Mercury is?  He wasn't some hardcore "never sell out" rock n roll badass that flipped the corporate birds off.  Freddie was a singer.  He sung rock music, opera music, pop/dance music and a variety of other genres.  He collaborated with so many different genres of music including Michael Jackson, David Bowie, etc. 
Freddie's passion was singing and he was as supportive as anyone else would have been.  I am willing to bet my life that Freddie would have been up on that American Idol stage cheering and jeering his flamboyant ass off. 
American Idol is a singing competition.  Sure most of the people on there aren't what style of music you like, but I must say the show has forcasted some talent over the past few seasons.  As for contracts, the remaining 16 I believe are offered a spot on the tour...win/lose.  That's nothing any different than an artist signing up for a tour. 

i think the solo is pretty cool, really classic slash as always.

it kind of sucks that he does these idol things tho, same with the fuckin vw comercial, it rocked, but it's realy unnessesary...

This song isn’t great. I think it is pretty standard. I probably wouldn’t even listen to it twice if had not been for the man on  guitar. So Slash does give it something extra. Not enough to make it great, but it makes it better. That is my heart doing the talking not my brain. Once a fan… always a fan. But that has been known to cloud my judgement in the past. So the song migth be even worse than standard.

Just to make myself perfectly clear… I’m not really bashing Slash’s way of playing . I just didn’t like neither the song nor Daughtry’s vocals. And I don't feel that this song give Slash any credit so I don't understand why he had to do it , but how can somone know something like that before they have entered the studio and recorded the track.

On the question of what Mercury would have done? Flamboyant as he was… he probably would have loved Idol.  :)
