Jeff supposedly couldn't hear for a while after that.

Hell, even Izzy said years ago that when he was approached after the Gilby departure that Axl was obsessed with doing a grunge record.
"It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" is the closest thing to a grunge record that any member of that band past or present has ever done...
If Axl did, I doubt he would have had to say much much to either Duff or Slash.
As for the trends, according to Lars Ulrich Axl wanted to do a NIN style kinda thing before anyone else had even heard of them. He brought them on tour, they got booed of stage, yet he didn't change is mind.

Sex Pistols Fans Call Live Return 'Worst Gig Ever'
Sex Pistols fans have hit out at the punk outfit's return to the live stage in the UK, calling last night's Brixton Academy gig 'embarrassing.'
Gigwise has received a number of comments from fans, who have hit out at what they call a 'dire' and 'shoddy' show. Last night's show was the first of five at the London venue, following the band's stint in America.
One impassioned comment reads: 'Went last night. They were shite to the point of embarrassing. I'm aware that some might say '˜well that's the point, they were never good', but honestly, save your money and put Never Mind the Bollocks back on the CD player. Worst gig ever.'
The band arrived on stage last night 30 minutes late and kick started their set with '˜Pretty Vacant.' A rotund John Lydon blasted through all the hits including '˜Anarchy in the UK' and '˜God Save The Queen.'

It doesn't sound like Axl would sing that stuff, if Axl wrote the lyrics the music would change, it was pretty clear that when it got to the UYI era half the music was based around the lyrics not the other way around.
My point is, to me it doesn't sound like a Guns N' Roses album, Guns N' Roses made three albums, two of them did not sound like AFD, Snakepit does not sound like AFD....
I know you already know this but:
AFD
Lies
UYI I
UYI II
TSII assume you're not counting Lies and TSI cuz one's an EP and the other is covers?
Yes and non of them sound like the Snakepit stuff either.

the majority of those tunes were written for GnR, you can tell, same with Gilby's pawnshop guitars album, some of those songs were written for GnR .... just how they are constructed
Axl & Izzy wrote or co-wrote the majority of Guns N' Roses song lyrics...
#5679 Re: Guns N' Roses » If there is a reunion, where do people stand? » 991 weeks ago
like coma and dont cry are such happy songs
But as you know, they don't sound anything like something from the SnakePit stuff.
#5680 Re: Guns N' Roses » Steve Jones On Chinese Democracy... (From 1996) » 991 weeks ago
By the sound of it, Axl was able to bribe Neurotic Outsiders into canceling their plans by having Jones be involved in the CD project. I am surprised Taylor wasn't invited as well.
Having Jones was probably similar to the Brian May thing, he was playing with a childhood hero/rock legend.
However with Taylor, I'd be surprised if Axl was listening to Duran Duran during the 80s.
