People are angry and frustrated, but it's not my fault if Axl is ruining his career.
Do you think Guns N'Roses roots have anything to do with NIN or "experimental" music ?
I don't think so and nobody does.
Even if they have to evolve (metabolism as you say), bands must respect their roots. Take a look at great bands like AC/DC, the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and so on... They evolved, but not in a radical way.
And remember that NIN isn't a band, it's only one guy called Trent Reznor who does mediocre music. This guy should not be an example for Axl !
First off, I wouldn't mention AC/DC, the Stones and Aerosmith as good examples of bands that have evolved, especially not AC/DC who've basically been making the same album over and over for 30 years now (although I do respect them).
And second, Trent Reznor does not make mediocre music ! Let it go already, and take your narrow-mindedness someplace else.
The fact that I don't like Reznor's music doesn't mean I'm narrow-minded.
I'm just trying to be realistic...
