[Loaded NightraiN]

Hey whats wrong with the crue?

I still listen to some of their work, but they bordered on what I call "teenybop metal".

Good ol' cock rock 

[chriskon72]

It is in The Dirt as well, Sixx says that he was so fucked up at the time and really struggling with writing material for girls... but that Zutauts confidence in him (asking him to produce AFD) motivated him to write and finnishing the album.

?

[gnrlies247]

I read that Gene Simmons wanted to produce AFD--thank God he didn't!

I tought it was Paul Stanley who wanted to produce it.. maybe they were to do it together

it was paul stanley.. there's a pic of him and axl from that time i think

hmmmm if u know where that Pic is hook me up with a link!?


Peace

it's somewhere in the rare axl pic thread, probably posted numerous times

Isn't the picture in the photographic history book aswell?

I'm sure i remember Nikki talking about this years ago in Kerrang magazine. Around the time Crue released the album with John Corabi singing for them.

Interestingly he thought that album would be as good as AFD!

This whole thread is a nightmare...Gene Simmons?  Paul Stanley?

It's no Appetite (what is?), but that's one helluva album!

 :yes:The knife toothed monster action figure would rock. You need to get that copyrighted before someone at McFarlane steals the idea from you!

I just last night finished the book.  I would have to rate it an excellent read.  I really never paid alot of attention to the band members of Motley Crue over and above knowing their names, or never had any wonderment in regards to their personal lives.  It was a book I could barely put down.  It is very very sad that a person of such great talent with such a passion for music lived through so many years of complete darkness, never feeling loved but only abandonment by his family and those closest to him.  A person who didn't care if they were to live or die, a person who actually cheated death many times and lives to tell of the horrifying experiences, a person living purely on the path of destruction and nothing else.  I could write my own book just on my own thoughts, but will stop here.

2008 Motley Crue > 2008 GNR. I heard Motley's new single Saints of Los Angeles and it sucks hard but hey at least its new music by the bands original lineup.

LOL whatever.  so as long as its an original lineup, they can make as shitty of music as they want?  no wonder you were banned.

Alot of work went into the production of AFD to make it sound the way it did. 

The CD sounds amazing, expecially considering where GNR was coming from in that stage of their career. Things could not have worked out any better.

I don't think Nikki Siix has ever produced any of the Motley Crue tracks.

haha seriously that makes no sense...you are saying a 2008 version of Motley is better than GNR ...but their music sucks?  hmmm

[mrlee]

The Crue minus their late 90s work, owns and ill accept no different opinion on the matter.

They rock just as good as gnr. And both deserve the respect they get.

I liked it a lot too, The Dirt was awesome also.

The slash-book is okay when you've read it a bit and he stops whining about how his parrents broke up and telling how he beat anyone in bmx.

I've almost finished it, it's not as good as heroin diaries, but I recomend it still.

hey if he wants to think 2008 crue is better than 2008 GnR, more power to him i guess    but to use "well the song sucks, but at least its a band's original lineup" as the argument makes no sense.    I dont think the song sucks but its nothing great and yea Better, CD, The Blues, etc blow it away.
