Review

Guns N' Roses made an unforgettable entrance into the music world with their debut album, "Appetite for Destruction," which dropped on July 21, 1987. This album is a fiery mixture of hard rock, punk, and blues, showcasing the band's raw energy. With Axl Rose's singular voice, Slash's iconic lead guitar work, Izzy Stradlin's solid rhythms, Duff McKagan's pounding bass lines, and Steven Adler's dynamic drumming, the quintet stamped their rebellious signature on rock music. Their sound carved a niche that sharply contrasted with the polished glam metal that prevailed during that era on the Sunset Strip.

Despite its initial slow start on the Billboard 200, "Appetite for Destruction"'s fate reversed with the breakout success of anthems like "Welcome to the Jungle," "Paradise City," and the tender "Sweet Child o' Mine." The album not only soared to the number one spot but also became one of the top-selling debut albums ever, crossing the milestone of 30 million global sales. Guns N' Roses' raw and unfiltered musical approach on this album forever altered the rock genre, solidifying their legacy as an epoch-defining and groundbreaking rock act. - Erika
