In a 2009 interview, Axl Rose talked about the famous Guns N’ Roses’ “Use Your Illusions” group photo, in which the band is photographed in front of a huge newspaper clipping that ironically says” Dead!”
Axl said,
“The group shot of the band in front of the piece ‘Dead’ was not a coincidence but not something I felt could be talked about openly, and something I hoped would change. I couldn’t reach Izzy and couldn’t manage or curtail Slash and his personal objectives to take over Guns anymore than I did at the time, and I’m lucky to have survived, got what we did out of it and some still enjoyed the results. But for all intents and purposes, the ‘Appetite For Destruction‘ lineup and approach was already dead, and with the addition of Matt, the end of the then-lineup and what Guns was really about was only a matter of time. Only heartfelt choices by the others could or would change that. Unfortunately, nothing did.”
