They have a ridiculous image that only appeals to a particularly tasteless demographic - and whether they have skill or not (The Rev played decent drums), their music is arguably pretty unoriginal. There was nothing cutting edge or genre-defining about their music. Pantera makes GnR look like Girl School.
