Time to kill your Idols?

Seems almost all the great bands put out 4 or 5 good/great albums then break up, or continue on, but put out less than stellar albums.
I think Chinese Democracy and Slash's solo album prove that these guys still have plenty left in the tank, so I wouldn't have been surprised if they had carried on and continued to make solid music together, but it clearly it wasn't meant to be. I'm just happy they are still making music, period.

current band is musically flawless, unlike. but missing the youthful angst and gang attitude of the old band which is what made the songs better, both in writing and in performance.  That's something that nobody can even recreate... nightrain cannot be better than 1988 ritz..

Funny, because Nightrain is being better since 2001 (with Bucket) and now with Bumble.

respectfully disagree, I'll take ritz '88
