Axel Rose is a fuckin hack.

[Georgio448]

@jkincaid76 You're right. He's such a prick. What the fuck was he talking about with that political statement crap?

@Krimzon121 (cont) When Maiden sang about being a stalker in Killers or discovering a Satanic coven in Number of the Beast, I knew it was purely fantastical. When Guns & Roses sang about strung out prostitutes and drug dealers, I really felt like they were singing about people they knew and associated with on a daily basis. Both great bands...very different approaches.

[Krimzon121]

Being a huge Maiden fan I can kind of see Axl's point of view. I'm not agreeing with him or anything but GNR and Maiden have different approaches and I couldn't really see GNR taking on Maiden type themes. I think Maiden's music is more about escapism or even writing about real life situations with a fiction based metaphorical analogy. GNR's approach was more direct .

Guns n roses dont even equal to the shoe lace on Iron Maiden's boot
