'Fallen' Does Not Sound Like Duff McKagan

Duff McKagan released a solo album called Lighthouse a few months ago. The album doesn't necessarily sound as heavy as his other solo releases, and that is okay. Musicians should be able to experiment and change their sound whenever they want. Still, the ballad "Fallen" just doesn't sound like a Duff McKagan song at all to me. Maybe it's because I still have a hard time separating Duff's solo work from his Guns n'Roses stuff. I know I can't be the only one who feels that way. I will say "Fallen" is a sweet tribute to Duff's wife Susan.

I interviewed Duff a million years ago and I remember him gushing about her then so it seems like the duo really are a strong match and good for them. We need more of that strong love in this world!
