Whether or not he is a good songwriter has no bearing on his quality as a singer. Even though I'm not the biggest GNR fan, I still have some appreciation for them, but I often merely tolerate Rose's vocals.

Of course, but I've heard multiple times from people who try to call them a punk band as opposed to a glam band. I think they were trying to imply they were a punk band at heart, or something like that, in a way that other bands weren't. I've never heard anyone try to say the same thing about any of their contemporaries, just them.
