Hello, I'm FlightTime. Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to You Could Be Mine even if you provide a/some source(s), you'll still need to start a discussion on the article talk page to allow editors who regular watch that page a chance to discuss the reliability of the source(s) you provided. One reason is, genre sources can easily be considered an opinion and not fact. Genre's are a touchy subject here on Wikipedia and without discussion/consensus, regardless of your source(s), your addition or removal will most likely be reverted. Your edit has been reverted and archived in the [ page history] for now. Unsourced genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. - FlightTime  ( open channel ) 19:15, 30 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello Flight Time. I am Dude. Rock n roll musician. When labeling genre to music, one of the most important things are to get informations from fellow musicians and contemporary journalists. What we consider today as a Hard Rock, doesn't mean that it was term used solely in the late 80s and begining of the 90's for this type of music. Hard Rock is very broad meaning. It means that you can call all heavy metal bands bands as hard rock. But you can't call straightout Hard Rock bands as Heavy Metal. It means that if you want to precisely define genre of the bands album then you can call Guns N Roses Illusions Hard Rock/Heavy Metal albums ( + glam metal, blues rock and art rock ). New stuffs are more like hard rock/nu metal/alternative metal/industrial rock/electronic rock and even some punk rock. You can't call works of some Hard Rock bands like The Who Heavy Metal, because their music does not have heavy metal elements. Guns N Roses music is loud, with highly overdriven distorted sound of electric guitars, bass guitar is aggressive, synthesizers and piano customized to blend with, vocals are distorted/loud and drums are acoustic/loud with fast tempos. Playing style is highly influenced with early beginings and birth of Heavy Metal inter alia ( with acts like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Motorhead...) - and style of playing as the ones that defy the genre - using heavily highly distorted power chords, palm muting and fast tempos. I've bought in 1991 Use Your Illusions and they've been labeled Hard Rock because the band refused Heavy Metal label  - beacuse they didn't want to have anything with contemporary Heavy Metal bands which were generally Pop sounding and like girls dressing/hair styling. Guns were heavier than the most of the then HM scene. Hard Rock is not heavier than Glam Metal scene from that time. 'You Could Be Mine' is not Hard Rock song. It is typical Heavy Metal song from 1991, with all raw elements, techniques and loudness. So as it is 'Back of Bitch', 'Bad Obsession', 'Double Talking Jive', 'Coma', 'Locomotive', 'Get In The Ring', 'Pretty Tied Up.'... Songs that have combined Hard Rock and Heavy Metal styles are songs like 'Don't Cry' and 'Civil War', Hard Rock/Blues Rock and Heavy Metal combining are songs like '14 Years' and 'Dust N' Bones'... 'Estranged' is not progressive rock at all - it's combination of art rock, hard rock, blues rock and heavy metal. It doesn't have anything, really anything with progressive rock. This is not what i think. This is what I do. Readers should have the right to know precise and true informations about articles. Please consider whenever editing anything about music to check what is the view/opinion of fellow r'n'r musicians and articles from contemporary journalists - from rock'n'roll magazines in this case like Kerrang!, Metal Edge, Hit Parader, Circus Magazin... 94.189.214.54 (talk) 13:26, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
