Slightly evolved and much over-gloried version of Aerosmith and I'll obviously take Aerosmith over them anyday.
Yes AFD is classic, Lies is good but UYI I&II have as much self-indulgent shwag as anything good on them - and the little outtro jam to Civil War is embarrassing.
Then their career stalled out. They coulda been something if Axl didn't flame out but as is they are little more than a footnote - shortlived glory, yes great sales figures, much overhyped cult following/folk hero status, but really just one decent album.
