Kurt's real name was Axl? And it was 1991, by the way......

Hahahahaha!

Speaking of Axl, did anyone read his press release today? What a load
of bollocks. If it's anything to go by, the man has well and truly
lost the plot. Since it mentions Robin Finck, I've copied it here:

=====

So here's the story behind this music...

The chorus: OH MY GOD etc. deals with the societal repression of deep
and often agonizing emotions - some of which may be willingly accepted
for one reason or another - the appropriate expression of which (one
that promotes a healing, release and a positive resolve) is often
discouraged and many times denied. Emotionally the song contemplates
several abstract perspectives drawing from personal expression as well
as from the film (End Of Days) and its metaphors. The appropriate
expression and vehicle for such emotions and concepts is not something
taken for granted.

Musically the song was primarily written by Paul Huge over two years
ago, with Dizzy Reed writing the musical hook of the chorus. Former
member Duff McKagan as well as former employee Matt Sorum failed to
see its potential and showed no interest in exploring, let alone
recording the piece. When the demos were played for the new band,
Josh, Tommy and Robin were as they say 'all over it.'

Once the opportunity was presented, the song was given priority in our
recording process. As the verse, performance and lyrics were decided
on, for us (that especially includes Interscope chairman Jimmy Iovine)
the choice became obvious. We were more than pleased Mr Roswell (the
film's music supervisor) agreed! Our thanks to Arnold and all for the
consideration - it is an association in which we have always felt
honored.

Paul Huge, Gary Sunshine and Dave Navarro appear on the song as well
as Robin Finck. Robin's part was written by Paul and extensively
manipulated by our producer, Sean Beaven. Robin was not involved in
the writing of the final recording though did participate in the
arrangement. All lyrics were written by myself. Additional programming
(jack boots, screeching tires, etc.) was by Stuart White.

The fight of good vs evil, positive vs negative, man against a
seemingly undefeatable, undeterrable, unrevealed destiny, along with
the personal and universal struggle to attain, maintain and
responsibly manage freewill can be and often is frustrating to say the
least. In America our country's constitutional right to freedom of
expression gives us a better chance to fight for that expression than
many in other countries enjoy. It can be a big gig, like kickin' the
crap outta the devil!

Power to the people, peace out and blame Canada,

Axl

Oh yeah? Get his... Axl Rose is an anagram of Oral Sex... which I'm sure he
gives to many of his male friends... I really dislike Axl... from all I've
heard he's a big jerk.. and I don't like mean people ;o)

Well Well well..not only have u insulted Axl but you have managed to
insult trent reznor as well....maybe unwillingly but still. I understand
how kurt Cobain lovers hate axl, but to say he didn't save rock in the
late 80's? how can you say that? Ok you might hate his music...fine, but
before guns n' roses burst onto the scene.. mtv played bubble gum pop
and basically music we are seeing today! Sure you had great bands around
at that time but the exposure his group got brought back the raw play
rock element. Which inturn opened the gates for groups like Nirvana to
be signed to geffen (gnr's label as well).
As for the trent reznor comment....trent and axl take a million years to
record something because they actually want to put out the best they can
and artistically care about the vision they have inside them...and they
give a **** about their fans. Kurt mockingly clapped at his fans at one
concert I went to while I was clapping...whatever! Sure kurt had a
vision etc...but for me personally it wore thin the whole teenage angst
play sloppy and loud. Also if kurt was around today he wouldve had to of
changed a little (hopefully) musically and I'm sure he would have taken
a reznor time line hiatus as well.

I have to disagree, I'm a *huge* Nirvana fan.. but Nirvana was just in the
right place, at the right time.. Nevermind isn't even that great of an album..
Teen Spirit is actually rather boring.. Nirvana (Kurt and Dave in particular)
were very talented.. I just wish TDS had been released 8 years ago this month..
Could you imagine how different the music world would be? Sorry.. just tryin'
to use my brain.. which hasn't had much fuel or rest lately.. sorry ;o)

yeah...the right place at the right time to save rock!

true, there was lots of other stuff going on at the time but *none* of it
was as popular as nirvana got until nirvana got there. the reason that gish
or facelift or ten or even BMF didn't fuck with people as much as nevermind
did was simply because they weren't, as far as mainstream music goes, as
*different* as nirvana - the first one had elements of classic rock (which
will always have a deep fan base in the general populace) and the other
three had enough elements of the 'metal' sound that they just didn't turn
that many heads. there weren't really any popular power punk/pop bands at
the time, just like there weren't really that many popular metal/pop bands
at the time that korn showed up. that's the reason that they both got so
damn popular so damn fast.

i think it's difficult to say if somebody else would have come around to
wipe out the awful g'n'r sound. really, it's irrelevant because they didn't
get the chance - nevermind did it first.

Nevermind and The Use Your Illusions came out the same year, 1991. One didn't
wipe the other out. G'n'R were awesome, but they broke up. It was brilliant
music. Nirvana was too, but they had a follow-up (In Utero), that's why they
lasted longer. Am I the only one who remembers how it happened?

And TDS couldn't've been released 8 years ago. He was on the Now I'm Nothing
tour, still learning about himself and his music. The next logical step for him
was Broken, a year later, in '92. It's all a big long evolution, and it's all
cool. Even the fact that Backstreet Boys and Brittany are on the Top of the
Charts now; Kurt died, grunge lost its momentum, no brilliant acts to follow,
art-rock died. It was also so depressing that some people just wanted happy,
childish music (the above boy/girl groups), and others wanted even more
depressing music (Korn, Limp Bizkit). People are sick of that, and something
not too loud, yet more mature will take their place. Excellent timing for a
brilliant, mellower, more mature effort from the right man for the job, eh?

It all follows a flow. Don't fight it. And don't deminish the stuff that DID
sell... for what it is, this pop crap of today is a lot catchier than the dance
pop of the early nineties, and that's why everyone bought grunge, cause it was
the best at the time. Boy, that old dance shit from '92-'95 BLEW!!!

Face it, all 90's mainstream rock sucks major ass for the most part. There
like only maybe a handful of bands that were in it more for the music than
the money, fame and image......the real musicians ( which I think Pearl Jam
is one and even nin) dont go with the flow of the mainstream....they do what
they want no matter what anyone say about them, they do it for there passion
in music. not for pussy ass mtv or pussy ass fans who abandon them when
they dont produce MTV friendly albums! Kurt Cobain sold 10 times more
Albums after he killed his pathetic little ass than before his timely
suicide! Axl Rosehad an image that was, at the time, what sold (Glam). The
fact of the matter both axl and Kurt weren't in the right place at the right
time, they were just lucky enough that MTV chose to play them. Had any
artist from any genre been played at that same time you would all be talking
about how that artist "saved" rock...the truth is rock was never dead, was
never dieing and will never die. Rock is in my soul and in the soul of many
others. And till the say we all die rock will be alive.
I personally like axel and G-n-R and I like Kurt and Nirvana, because they
were the musicians I liked in a time when I liked what people my age was
supposed to like. (and yes i own both artists albums) But Ive grown to
realize that I have a mind. I have the freedom to explore music that isn't
"mainstream". Music is an art form. Something that has nothing to do with
money, image, or even others opinions. It only has to do with what makes
you feel a special power. And dont get me wrong, just because I dont listen
to Tupad Sakur or Garth Brooks or even Yanni doesn't mean it aint music,
because to someone out there it what get them excited of what makes them
feel a special something. With out music I know I'd rather die. So
respect all music whether you think it good or bad, cause remember Opinions
are like Assholes....everyone got them and they all stink!

Well anyway thats my two abe lincolns......hasta....

They let Axl write the press releases? I wonder how many proof-readers
need to go through it.
