Yeah, weird.  It's almost like there's more than one guy that's been writing Rolling Stone for the last fifteen years. 

Maybe there's two guys -- one who reviews and one writes articles.  I'll bet one of them loves Axl and the other loves Slash.

Including TSI on that list makes absolutely no sense.  It seems that at least a few people there are a bit too-overtly anti-GnR for my taste, and definitely not objective.  Then again, they did have enough sense to put Van Halen III on that list...

Seriously, you guys are trying to make this seem negative.  Look at the other artists they're listing GNR with -- Van Halen, the Stones, Bowie, and Dylan.

That's pretty esteemed company.  You guys are too touchy.

Any publicity is better than no publicity.
BTW - a great album, and one that GNR should have toured behind through 1994.

Dude.. not about touchy.. but a few of the albums there are amusing that they are there in the first place.

weird look on the site rolling stone originally gave the album a 4 out of 5 and now they say it sucks  rofl

But they do give gnr a backhanded compliment by putting them as great artists in the league with the rolling stones and bob dylan

The headline of this thread is wrong.

It says GREAT artists.  Grin


Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, David Bowie.. Not bad company to be in.

I just can't get over how fucking dumb Rollingstone is.  I say that based on the fact that they reviewed this album at 4 out of 5 stars  (and even have a link to the review) originally and not put it on this list! Do they even think before they do shit??

It's fun how half of the people talk about Rolling Stone as if it was this one guy instead of massive corporation with about gazillion online and mag writers.

What should be noted when making lists like that is  what the any given album wants to be/tries to be. Spaghetti incident wasn't released to be the most essential record of the year and cornerstone of GNR's catalogue or anything. They just had a pile of dumb punk covers they like and  felt like releasing.
Point being, the album aimed so low to begin with that it just doesn't belong on lists like that.
