July 21, 1987, has been forever etched into the history of Guns N' Roses and world music.
On that day, 34 years ago, the California band led by lead singer Axl Rose released their debut album, Appetite For Destruction, and quickly became one of the biggest names in rock and roll.
Ironically, the start on the right foot also became the peak of the band's career in-studio recordings. Unfortunately, the album's successors never reached their technical level and popularity, and the band quickly combusted with the departure of critical key pieces like guitarist Slash.
Appetite For Destruction is, then, both an incredible start and a milestone in the band's career that relies mainly on its hits.
The album's sound reflects what was happening in the Los Angeles underground music scene in the late 80s and early 90s.
Hard rock dominated the small clubs in the city and was happening simultaneously with Punk shows full of violence, drugs, and chaos.
The Guns N' Roses scene wasn't exactly different. Still, they knew how to create a more accessible atmosphere, treating musicians as rockstars from an early age and always showing a commercial approach.
Appetite For Destruction brings songs full of great guitars and great vocals, with a production that allowed the album to sell to the masses and quickly occupy a space that had been taken by other bands of the time, most of them not so noisy. 2021 NEW Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction Pop!
