“Bad Apples” by Guns N’ Roses
Sliding into “Bad Apples,” you can almost feel that swagger, that bad-boy rock n’ roll vibe GNR was so dang good at delivering. This one’s got that bluesy, hard rock feeling with a dash of that sleazy, glamorous sunset strip vibe. Lyrically, Axl’s kind of giving us a peek into the band’s chaotic life with all the ups and downs in the industry.
There’s a bit of cynicism, a bit of dark humor, but it’s all wrapped in a killer riff and punchy melody. Even with the darker themes, it’s a fun listen and makes you wanna move a bit. The phrase “rotten to the core” just kinda lingers, doesn’t it?
