They're pretty good yeah, good to rock out to, although they are a bit limited ... only having one guitarist who's not actually one of the better guitarists of the genre anyways, plus a singer who's far from the best as well ...

I do actually like some of their post Feelgood - stuff. I should get around to getting a studio album at some point. I'll hopefully go see 'em live at the Download Festival in June

IMO, Mick Mars is perfect for them. He may not be the most technically proficient player, but his riffs are spot on when neccesary, and dirty when possible. Excellent live player as well.

Vince's vocals have been horrible for the most part since the 2005 reunion, though. Even if he's not drunk out of his mind, he usually skips half of the words.

They're okay in my book. I think they for sure are an overrated band. But they have some pretty good songs like Home Seet Home and Kickstart My Heart (great song to rock out to!!)

I don't mind their studio stuff, but I'll pass on any recent live recordings. Vince Neil can't sing anymore.

I love the Crue. They're simply an awesome fun-rock band. Just great. And Theater of Pain is to this day one of my all time favorite albums by any band. Just great.

Meh, I have the two disc greatest hits. Their good for a moment, but there are times where I just can't stand em.
And I hate the way Vince skips his words and runs out of breath like a fat lazy bastard. It was like having Jon Lovitz on stage instead of a rockstar. not that I think every rockstar should be skinny because meatloaf kicks ass but Vince just sucks.

Vince can't sing anymore, thats a fact. I think the best person in the whole band is Nikki, he's also my favorite member.

Alphavictim 04-15-2007 09:18 PM

Nikki "the best person"? I like his songwriting, but a compulsive liar, drug abuser and horrible bass player is hardly "the best person", no matter how exactly that's determined. He can be your favourite, but "the best person"?

I like them. Granted they are not very musical and Vince isn't the greatest singer in rock n roll by any scretch of imagination but the songs are great. Mick is probably the second greatest riff writer after Edward Van Halen. The Carnival Of Sins tour was great, I went twice, and I attended the show that became the DVD. So if you buy that DVD, you can hear me singing Shout At The Devil :)

The debut, Shout At The Devil, Dr Feelgood and New Tattoo are all great. GGG has some great tracks and some fillers. Generation Swine is atrocious. Songs from the compilation albums (If I Die Tomorrow, Bitter Pill, Sick Love Song) are all great.
