Title: matt sorum sucks... but worth it for "coma"...
Review: duh... like they erased steven adler's drum tracks because HE was a heroin addict..? replaced it with matt sorum's plodding drumming which kills any momentum these songs could've had... further, it's obvious that axl's singing was done to the beat of steven adler's drumming... without it and with the samsonite gorilla drumming of sorum his vocals don't make any sense from a musical standpoint... drug-addict or not, steven adler was a damn good drummer that propelled appetite and the rest of the band... having said all that, "coma" is worth the price of admission because it's the culmination of where the band was heading as axl took more and more control(this is really his solo album...)... "coma" isn't what it could have been with the adler of appetite, but then again neither was this album and neither was guns n' roses by 1990...
Is the review positive or negative?
