Description

During its late '80s and early '90s heyday, Guns n' Roses perpetually teetered on the brink of chaos and threatened to implode. That powder keg atmosphere made the L.A. band great: not only were its concerts unpredictable, energetic and confrontational—thanks in no small part to frontman Axl Rose's loose-hipped stage moves and gravelly, menacing banshee screams—but the band and its music oozed danger.

The ominous guitar pulses introducing "Welcome To The Jungle," the teeth-baring "Nightrain" and "Right Next Door To Hell," and the no-brakes cover of Wings' "Live And Let Die"—all solidified Guns n' Roses' reputation as a gang of debauched misfit hellraisers determined to inject raw sincerity and adrenalin into an increasingly staid, overproduced rock scene.

This "us-against-the-world" mentality started with Rose, a mercurial Indiana native with a troubled upbringing who followed childhood friend Jeff Isbell (a.k.a. Izzy Stradlin) to Los Angeles in the early '80s. The pair formed the glammy punk-metal band Hollywood Rose, whose lineup later featured guitarist Slash and his teenage best friend, drummer Steven Adler.

As local bands do, Hollywood Rose eventually disintegrated due to interpersonal turmoil. However, when Rose decided to give the band one more shot, he struck gold: in 1985, Guns n' Roses' lineup finally coalesced with guitarists Stradlin and Slash, drummer Adler and Seattle-born punk vet Duff McKagan on bass.

Still, the band's full-length debut, 1987's Appetite For Destruction, wasn't an immediate hit. In fact, Guns n' Roses spent over a year opening for Mötley Crüe,
