Who is Guns N’ Roses?

 

Guns N’ Roses was one the biggest bands to come out of the 80’s. The categorization of Guns N’ Roses has varied from hard rock, glam metal, and root metal. The bands biggest hits included “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Paradise City,” “November Rain,” “Don’t Cry,” “Patience,” and “You Could Be Mine.” Unlike other bands of the era, Guns N’ Roses differentiated themselves with their sound, look, and attitude, which all were revolutionary at the time of the release of their debut album, Appetite for Destruction. The original lineup of Guns N’ Roses consisted of Axl Rose, Slash, Duff McKagan, Izzy Stradlin, and Steven Adler. The band’s regular live shows in the USA and Europe brought frequent controversy, notably when two fans died during crowd disturbances at the Monsters Of Rock show at the Donington Festival in 1988. In 1989, the eight-track album G N’R Lies was issued, becoming a big hit on both sides of the Atlantic. The first four tracks were lifted from the band’s debut EP, while the remaining four were acoustic recordings. The melodic and wistful ‘Patience’ reached the US Top 5 and UK Top 10. However, Rose’s lyrics for ‘One In A Million’ were widely criticized for their homophobic sentiments, although the singer later argued that these did not represent his personal point of view.
