Shotgun blues is so perfectly agressive.   

And the lyrics are pretty funny too.  This is one of those fuck around songs that GnR did well, it wasn't the intention for that song to be high art.  Songs like Shotgun Blues and Back Off Bitch were cool because they reflected the immature, fuck you attitude and punk influence, the counterpoint to epic songs like NR and Estranged.  That's the greatest thing about these albums.  There are not many bands other than GnR I can think of that would be able to wear all these different hats, to sound equally at home making a song like Right Next Door To Hell and Coma, Back Off Bitch and November Rain, You Could Be Mine and Estranged.  This is why the UYI experience as a whole is my favorite album

You hit the nail on the head there. Thats what I was trying to get at earlier. And I love AFD, first album I ever bought and basically turned my on to rock music for the rest of my life. So while I will always love that album not only for it's sheer might and greatness it will always have that sentiment too. But even with that I actually prefer the Illusions over Appetite. And I think "Experience" is a great word to describe listening to those albums. It goes in so many different directions and places musically and lyrically that it's like a fuckin ride.

My World , it just wasn't meant for UYI. That's something axl should've saved for CD hahahaha or something else. But hell when you have a song like Coma on a disc , you can put anything you want because Coma makes up for all lol. Every song on that album is awesome , what really REALLY trips me out is most of those songs where written already , wayyyyy before UYI came about ( such as November Rain ) I mean thats nuts.  beer GNR

Amazing..before i was hard core appetite..i was cool Tongue...But then i sat on the train for 5 hours and listened to both albums....Coma..Never realized what a fucking masterpiece it is..Estranged is always Estranged...Back off bitch is moody..Don?t damn me..Top 5 of all the songs....One song i hate is Live and let die, digged it when i was 6, but now..yak !

The albums are sooo overproduced, but that doesn?t matter to me

As the dust settled, Axl stared unblinkingly at me and, with no hint of irony, summed up GN?R?s philosophy: ?We don?t start anything. But if you mess with us, then we?ll fuck you up!
