I'll let you're grammar slide, Fred, because you're not a dick.

Appetite for Destruction might still be "relevant" for some retro glam/rock bands, but GNR stopped being relevant in any interesting sense of the word over twenty years ago.

If you just wanna say that people still like GNR, then fine, obviously they do, but who cares? People like lots of ****ty ****, even years after they should have stopped.
Affect is the verb. Effect is the noun. Learn to English, dumbass.
