hammerhead - izzy stradlin

[curserproject]

Izzy was heavily influenced by punk music and has one of two punkish songs on each album, This is very punk and in the spirit of punk. Short. Aggressive and nothing fancy, including the lyrics... nothing more. Listen to "Shuffle It All" or "Old Hat" if you want meaningful lyrics.

[R3yK1d]

I Love the rythm as usual Izzy is a God but the lyrics sucks :(

[josefine84swe]

I listen to this when I'm pissed off, then everything feels better!

[ROCKSHELTER1]

IZZY SO SPECIAL GUY,A "LITTLE GENIOUS" IN HIS LINES I LOVE IT!!

[izaiasgunner]

Izzy Stradlin a alma do Guns N' Roses !

Fodão

[CorinthianoEduardo]

Izzy Stradlin = Rock N' Roll

[aoifeluvzk]

Izzy is soooo hot

[MrDownslider]

this song is evidence that GNR needs to cut the crap and reunite!!!

[billygoatgruFFF]

Methanol/Hammerhead=Izzy Stradlin on a hotwheels of great rocknroll

[1919dpg]

shame he didn't stick around in VR

[pobanmanu]

Sounds like Led Zeppelin.

[tinkivinkipusitravu]

@pobanmanu

are you shitting me ??? if this sounds like Led Zeppelin than you should jump off a cliff !

[MadridNFRoses]

1.- Bucket O' Trouble

2.- Hammerhead

3......

[razpet20]

Simple and awesome. But I don't like the gorillas he plays with now.

[FOOROCKS123]

this would have been an awesome guns song

[Luxmaxnike]

@FOOROCKS123 better than many guns song like "garden of eden", "out ta get me", änything goes" and some more

[llgnr]

@Luxmaxnike We can argue on garden of eden, but out ta get me and anything goes are absolutely superb songs!

[Luxmaxnike]

@llgnr wow, now i love both Garden of Eden and Out ta Get Me, and of course still like Hammmerhead, but not anything goes

[nightofear]

haha this song is funny......i like it

[ebmasdan92]

izzy u fuckin HERO........u where the spine that made gnr stand....btw u look like al pacino haha

[Disco234jockey]

Slash depends on the singer to write a song these days.. look at his solo album... The songs that featured Pop Singers sounded like Pop.. the songs that featured Alternative Rock singers sounded like Alternative rock.. songs that are hard rock sounded like the singer's style of hard rock.. and none of the songs sound like sdlash

[Nobitur]

Izzy and Slash are better songwriters than Axl IMO

[AceInTheWhole94]

@Nobitur somebody just HAD to come an say shit about axl..everything was soo cool and then the axl comment again..people just wont lay off his back..jeez, izzy would kick your ass, theyre like best friends

[Nobitur]

@AceInTheWhole94 Can you read?? I said IMO!

[Luxmaxnike]

@AceInTheWhole94 they used to be best friends

[smexymichaelx2]

izzy is the best rock lyrecist ever.

ty for writing guns n roses songs!!!

[san77icognr1]

Izzy is a better musician than slash

[AceInTheWhole94]

Fuckin awesome! shoulda added some more lyrics lol...but it was fucking brilliant anyways

Izzy Stradlin is god

[MadridNFRoses]

This man, stills has a super brain to compose Epic Songs!!!

[GunsNHendrix]

@ROCKlamf i would just say ok to anything as long as he even aknolages that i am real

[Ragrocks]

Guns N Roses died the day this man quit.

[iamblackmo]

@Ragrocks I agree, one of the biggest attributes to there success

[gnrgirl102]

how old is this video??

[slash4897]

is this the old guitarrist from gnr i don´t know

[danimal97520]

Yeah that's Izzy from way back when. Cool as shit dude

[gunerscratsh]

hammer,hammer,hammer,hammer,ha­mmerhead

so cool

[Tomass74]

This song is f'n awesome.. Izzy needs to get out and tour for once..

[ebmasdan92]

luks a lot like al pacino in dis doesnt he?

[Nobitur]

@ebmasdan92 Yeah, he's hot :DDDDD

[sageb1]

Izzy has matured considerably since his first solo album, "Izzy & the Ju Ju Hounds".

[nhlpens]

What dog breed was Izzy's favorite? The lab? Rottweiler?

[venger1994]

he had a bulldog i think you can see his dog in the video sweet child o'mine

[JumpingTomato]

Izzy is my hero! I fucking love the guy!

[mzet01]

This just fuckin rocks!

Thanks Izzy, great stuff!

[hbk6666izzy]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­! izzy ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡­¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[dannyadmasc]

Izzy is a great musician

[angrychipmunk99]

I prefer him with long hair

[stradlin62]

Come on Izzy, start it over again..

[iuricastro22]

awesome song

I wish Izzy would still do videos and tours. His albums are amazing

[superlilstevie]

izzy is awesome i miss him

[kimeneza]

IZZY + SLASH  = GOD

[RKOIsmail]

Izzy is a fucking legend. It's sad that people didn't notice him in Guns N' Roses, he was the legend in that band.

[Iputrandomstuff]

Him and Duff are my inspirations for singing

PS I'm as great a singer as Bob Dylan

[jamespondrobocod]

Personally don't like Dylan so you might be better than him xD

Or putting random stuff ;)

Anybody got any advice on Izzy albums to get, love his stuff but nowhere has any albums, so I'm gonna get them off the internet, also if anyone knows any good deals ^_^

[mrsthnd893]

ebay normally has his first one 'Izzy & The Ju Ju Hounds', his 2nd one '117' and his 4th one 'River' for cheap prics. Just check ebay, amazon, cduniverse for all the others. And iTunes for his most recent 3.

[mebloke69]

Really,IZZY is a musical genius,thats why he left that plane which was fulfilled byproducts called great guns´n roses.and roses faded when Izzy left that all behind.

[ROCKlamf]

you know i really really respect izzy, hes such a cool rock n roll type of dude, but when i listen to a song like this, i just got to wonder, how did it sound in studio?..

"so guys, heres my idea for the song. im gonna sing "hammerhammerhammerhead" a bunch of times, then im gonna sing "5000 miles" for a bunch of times."

"uhh ok."

"and then ill sing "here we go" for a few times, but this time say "ride" between each time. ok?"

"sure."

"then well just do it all over."

"gotcha."

[Pyro221116]

It's not suppose to have deep lyrics, it just a punk song, what do you think the ramones did, the ramones rocked yet they''re lyrics were repeptive, this is a great band, and izzy is a genius!

[Silent80b]

hahahaha, you are incredibly right. but I do think that proper lyrics wouldn't give you the psych the song gives you now

[LesCrapio]

@ROCKlamf Maybe they only started rocking with the instrumental part and after they build it they started coming up with some words.

[rusteia]

@ROCKlamf LMAO too cool

[guitarman104]

@ROCKlamf Great song but mostly about instrumental in this song they probably added vocals so people who didnt play instruments would appriciate it more

[CMDesign]

@ROCKlamf Sometimes, simplicity works better!

[Thebay666]

@ROCKlamf

thought exact same thing^^ i am a songwriter myself and i alway think: okay thats cool but never enough for a song. " n so i try to stuff something with expression in it. but it seems that there is an easier way^^

[Punkerstyle9]

@ROCKlamf this is a song with really just a simple message so its nice and sometimes its enough :D

[stacyface28]

how is sebaXcore06's comment spam??????

[mebloke69]

next 40years what KEEF promised us...

[mebloke69]

if ronnie play more his "new" role.this MAN

is best for play with KEEF.

[bcrich77]

izzy is da shit!

marty friedman too!

[mebloke69]

gnr days were numbered when izzy closed the doors and left the camp

[metalpriest420]

i totally agree.the last time i saw gnr was in 1993.i took my sister with me.i remember telling her dont expect to ever see this lineup in gnr again.i think it was a couple years after izzy left the band.

[kingstrane]

izzy is a great guitarist, but, in GnR, people just dont recognized it. they just look to slash. izzy was great

[Schizzose]

izzy is a great , but in Gnr often people don't recognized that fact , is very good with the guitar

[knietfiend]

im sorry but the lyrics suck music is good as always,.....axl n izzy still friends? anybody know?

[SkinsPro]

Yep, they are friends. Axl and Izzy have always been close even after the break-up.

[benrockfan69]

ya dude their still friends the song 14 years on song by izzy back when he was in gnr is about their friendship and according to izzy in an interview all the old gnr guys stay in touch

[basketballbassist56]

the lyrics arent much but its a really punk song the lyrics dont have to be good

[sebaXcore06]

he is a great writer sometimes like in this song the lyrics is not very important ... is music and this is the most important... listen here comes the rain

[sebaXcore06]

I think that this man

was the head of guns and roses

his music is amazing

and he is so underrated

he hasn't a good voice

but he sounds so good

izzy stradlin is a great musician is the better from guns and roses

when he left out, the group die and he can compose amazing too

everybody that knows the rock

this is a legend ! and he didn't needs of guns and roses for compose awesome

[bigslashfan4ever]

He's definately awesome! I love his voice! I'll listen to him before I listen to Axel anyday!

[danielhl22]

big fuckin wooowwoww¡¡¡¡¡¡he is a forgotten member of guns and roses¡¡¡¡but he is the best¡¡

[hez123456789]

i think it's gr8 Izzy's done this, you could say while he was at GNR he was somewhat underrated but here, with his own band it proves his musical genius :)

[basketballbassist56]

i know and the funny thing is if you listen closely to recorded versions and live versions his rhythm guitar playing is so awesome its everywhere and his style just rocks

[Kakrakaa]

Straightforward and cool!

[tensicherry]

i love this song go izzy!!!

[ajaxrulzz]

Hes looks like The Boss now :P

[piroskaesaPiro]

This is my song :)

[elferin]

Izzy Stradlin is the best of the best!!!

[brammyaward]

izzy rocks..

[MarsHart]

don't know, don't think Velvet Revolver is that good.. Guns N Roses Rocked..

[AxlBeach]

Izzy Is so freaking awesome. It would be cool if the kicked out bumblefoot and he joined GN'R or he Joined VR ;D

[ilmasticatore999]

no slash no party

[theognr]

piss off.....we are talking about izzy here....go watch and leave comments on velvet revolvers videos....

[madmethod2]

This type of music is timeless. I'm glad I checked out Izzy's solo work.

[basketballbassist56]

you can definetely hear the punk roots of this man. i could imagine the ramones playing this just without the guitar solos

[ElizaStradlin]

Oh my good...

Izzy is wonderful...♥♥♥

I love him...

His music is fantastic...

and he´s so sexy...♥

oh! shit...

He kill me with this music!!!

Izzy you`re the best!!!

wiiii

Rock n Roll!!

[Slashfr]

Rock N Roll !!!

[DonTrustZepHaters]

well he still hot lol

[ToFeelOrNotToFeel]

Still the spirit of GN´R, I love it! Hope you want to be my guests in Argentina to a concert! You have to show people here what really rock is about!

[Marsthegreatx]

axl and izzy were like mick and keith they need each other

[IzzyDuffAxl]

Izzy is the best!

One of the bests songwriters ever!

Izzy and Axl pure dinamite!

[slowrock12]

ONe of my fav Rhythmist.ROCK ON!

[aaciseric]

Is that Rick Richards with the black LP?

[roadkill7474]

he rocks

he rules

pure legend

[cadiplayer]

ya i agree he looks like al. miss the dreads though. he rocks

[roadkill7474]

hey i just said does anyone tink he looks like him.i never said anything bou him not being better.but come on IZZY STRADLIN RULES

[stacyface28]

lol I agree with you.

[cadiplayer]

he was in the most dangerous band in the world. he could dive off the stage and kick al pacinos ass at any moment

[stacyface28]

Actually, I could picture him being somewhat of a Pacino fan and being flattered by the comparison though Izzy is definitely more attractive ;)

[roadkill7474]

does anyone else think that he looks a bit like al pacino in this vid.fav musician of all time.rock on izzy

[cadiplayer]

izzy is the best rhythm guitarist out there since malcom young. he's a hella song writer who doesn't give a shit about following trends he's original. heart and soul of G N R

thats why they collapsed when he left and why axl and V.R. would love to see him back

[elmetalico99]

i heard somebody told me izzy couldn handle to be in the bigest band in the world but i read that izzy left guns cuz axl attitude anyways i wish gush guns would get togheter again unfurtunately thats never gonna happen it seems that izzy is happier by himself that being just a regular guitarrist in some band by the way some of the best song og gusns izzy made those

[ph34rONE3443]

Wow. He sucks without GN'R, that one website was right. If anyone thinks I'm wrong, could you please show me a video where he's good?

[stacyface28]

He hasn't MADE any other videos. You are obviously not a big fan if you're going to let one song influence your opinion of his talent. He has many songs out there that are way better than this one. I may not be a huge fan of this song but I love most all of his other stuff. The guy is great in my book. Anyway what website are you talking about?

[ph34rONE3443]

I don't think he's bad, I think he's the greatest rhythm guitarist that ever happened. I'm just saying, no one's really even thinking about him when he's not on a stage with Axl or Slash or something. I'd have to find the website.

[Julien17]

Go and have a look for "Shuffle It All" and "Traintracks". Those are the only other two videos he made, though they're much older, from 1992.

[Rantdogawesum]

Izzy's singing > Axl's singing

[SlashHendrix7]

Izzy Stradlin is my favorite musician bar Slash...but this isnt a song to send someone if you want them to be impressed with Izzy.

[nonesta13]

he kinda looks like al pacino now lmao

[bassforprez55]

this sounds almost punk i like it

[madrhino86]

izzy is king...

[unhipmummy]

great voice!!great song!I love it!

Izzy Stradlin rocks!!:D

thx for the video!!:]

[geogo07]

omg izzy aged so much still a ledgend tho

[notcutorclvr]

The music rocks, but I think the lyrics aren,t his best. Love him anyway!

[Istuva]

Sounds 'kin great! Izzy rules!

[MiMiQ88]

i love Izzy <3

[spazzoidd]

FUCKIGN EH GO IZZY

[katieeeeXOXO]

Aw, it's Izzy Stradlin, old electric guitarist from Guns n' Roses.

[LesPaulBoy7]

GO IZZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Richter12]

i love the izzy music, he is the best :3

[89Sonic]

Cool song. Probably not his best one but a cool one anyway :P

[piroskaesaPiro]

naj :P

[vampire891208]

IZZY IS MY IDOL

[Laiwinsh]

mine too :)

[GNRbeatle73]

Straight up Rock N Roll

[faereh]

bem q ele podia voltar aos guns junto com slash duff e matt

[HorseCalledBen]

izzy was the brains behind appetite... music wise anyway

[jgalileu]

jorge galileu!

 animal!!1

[stacyface28]

Yeah it's really that stupid, that's why it's been favorited 184 times. lol

I do agree that his other stuff is better but I wouldn't say this one's bad either.

[Julien17]

I tend to see it as an amused little dig at some parts of music industry that do not have much to do with music anymore. Someone saw loads of senseless videos on mtv and decided he could do worse. Easily.

[VanHalenRock112]

I agree with dbenmil this song is stupid. He sounds like an idiot during the verses. Too bad, in GNR he wrote some of my favorite songs, but I guess everyone can have a bad day.

[Danneee15]

dbenmil- i've bought the new book slash, and it says that axl was the one who made "legal manipulation" on em -and thanks to the others patience axl could do it quite a while longer- and was the one who made izzy to leave gnr... then axl left gnr but had a form, where it says taht he can keep the name and then he formed the new gnr which - in my opinion sucks hard.... so i can understand they won't have him in VR... no offence 2 axl, i think he's far better than scott...

[cndrkenny]

Izzy Rules!!

[4tus]

Izzy is my homeboy

[Sebal100]

IZZY's cool as usual, he's my favourite musician ! ! !

[scotty6606444]

same here

im a rhythm guitarist too!

[dbenmil]

This song sucks, I can't beleive the same person who wrote the lyrics to: 14 Years and "You Ain't The First" wrote this song!

He's so old but still looks like the Izzy we all grew up with and love.

[ovneb]

i think this song kicks ass

[MustyG]

dbenmil, Dude i fully agree with u. this song is really lame. I expected something better than that bullcrap.

[dbenmil]

Well, thank you. I think you're the only one so far who agrees with me, I've gotten 4 thumbs down so far for voicing my opinon WTF? Just 'cause I don't like this song, doesn't mean I don't love the guy and respect his talent as a musician! BTW, I'm a girl :)

[MustyG]

Hell yeah! Izzy ruled when he was playing in GNR. He was the rock spirit of the band. But this song sucks. Being Izzy Stradlin doesnt mean that all the songs he play is great. As well as having a stupid song like "hammerhead" cant make a musician lame. BTW sorry for "dude" :D

[lever525]

actually, this songs does sucks, but he has other cool songs like bomb

[dbenmil]

What the hell? One cannot voice his/her opinions without getting thumbs down? What the hell is wrong with you people? Boo me all you want, I don't care. Just being HONEST!

[pescaditoloco1]

God Daw...Izzy Still Rocks!!!! Goooddd!

[ovneb]

goes to show that music doesnt have to make sense to sound good. all it is feeling and expression. izzy rocks

[AmbassadorOfMorning]

I agree with the guy who said the Velvet Revolver would benefit from playing with him

[Sprogrock100]

they asked Izzy to be in the band but he said no. He said that if he went into VR then it would be to much like GNR and he didnt want that to happen

[dbenmil]

GOOD FOR HIM! I love Izzy!!!! I love his morals, his personality, his talent, etc... He's probably one of the few people on this earth that Axl loves "unconditionally"

I do blame Axl for the demise of GNR but seriously having a band called VR with every ex-GNR band members except for Axl would just be WRONG!

[rightguard61]

yup izzys my idol. whats some good songs by him as a solo artist? cure me or kill mes a good one. maybe his songs arent as good cuz hes clean?

[plissken2013]

Too bad Cure me or kill me is a Gilby Clarke song... ^^

[Taarok]

izzy is amazing, the lyrics doesn't say a damn thing but still a great song

[jamespondrobocod]

is ma fav song by him, wel his solo stuff

think about you, Dust N' Bones and all da other GN'R songs he did r amazin IZZY 4 LYF :D

[imdubalin]

pues yo te amo mas jorge:D

[geronimo56k]

Velvet Revolver would be 1000 times better with Izzy!

[LLyoddXmas]

Rock On IZZY !! U Rule !!

[zimonslot]

damn thing won't load!

[scotty6606444]

same here!

[Ir1s1]

Yeah,he sure is cool....like all of the ex-guns,anyway...EXCEPT for axl*throws up*

[EmilyGuns]

[piroskaesaPiro]
