Helemaal een vibe

i really enjoyed listening to this album, my favourites are my Michelle and rocket queen

I guess i was 16 when this album happened. Friends were obsessed. It was loud and arrogant and drunken. Several huge hits and i still think the first half of sweet child is lyrical and reffing genius. Some of the filler has dated but for sheer rock and roll arrogance...

I think this could be the greatest hard rock album of all time, or at least the greatest hard rock side A of all time. Seriously flawless musically, all loose Stonesy punk rock without the multimillion dollar production values, pretension and over-long ballads that would come after (although i do have a soft spot for that too, to be fair). Side B drops the ball just a tad - Think About You and Anything Goes are both pop metal by numbers. But followed up with Rocket Queen, that's forgivable. Dropped a star only for the cluelessly casual misogyny, which is beyond Spinal Tap proportions.

Enjoyed this one more than I expected.

A very solid album, and even more so with this being their first. But you can't go anywhere without hearing one of these on the radio, so it was quite tiresome. Should probably be a 5, but Sweet Child annoys the hell out of me

Singles were very good, rest of the album a bit meh

There’s a reason you usually only hear the choruses of these songs. Genuinely liked It’s So Easy tbf.

Franchement, bon album et je pense lui mettre 5 même si il mérite pas vraiment cette note. Pour le coup j'ai vraiment bien aimé mon écoute, avec des morceaux absolument mythiques de l'histoire du rock, des phases de guitares vraiment impressionnantes et des changements assez troublants dans la voix d'Axl Rose que je trouve cool pour toujours renouveller les sonorités. Après, est ce qu'il mérite 5 étoiles ? Sincèrement je ne pense pas. C'est un premier album, et le disque pue l'Amérique de Trump, la transpiration sous les aisselles, et l'odeur de l'essence d'un garage en tôle. C'est vrai qu'il est pas parfait, mais en tant qu'auditeur, ce qui est vraiment ressorti en écoutant, c'est un 5 étoiles, et je pense que c'est le plus important.

Extra punt voor de hitjes

Childhood fav

A couple of tracks had some early grunge vibes. The big songs were alright, have been overplayed and stick out on the album. All together it was pretty fun.

I liked this album as a teenager, but then branched out and heard much better music. And then even later I started playing the game Burnout: Paradise City which used Paradise City as the theme song, and I got to the point and am still at that point where I cannot listen to that song anymore. I also don't really want to hear any of the hits on the album anymore either. The rest of the tracks aren't bad, but maybe that's only because I've heard them so few times?

No hace falta que lo escuche, es mi disco favorito y mi banda favorita.

Stuffed to the brim with outstanding performances - it's a classic

Es un disco que rompió TODO y hoy, casi 40 años después sigue sonando como algo nuevo, algo que no se escucha en otro lado. Me acompañó muchas mañanas previas a rendir en el colegio, en mí adolescencia en mis viajes a la universidad, y algún que otro viajecito en auto. Un álbum versátil e inmortal.

This is the Guns N' Roses album that has all of the songs that I know from them (Welcome to the Jungle and Swet Child of Mine). My first introduction to them is guitar hero. I have never actually wanted to listen to their music beyond those songs but the album is ok! Very white dad rock to me. The instrumentals flowed together and I genuinely thought a couple of songs were just one song.

I really hate this

This album has so many hits. A classic.

rahhhhhh

Never listened before. I knew it was a classic, but hard rock is usually not my thing. A pleasant surprise.

There are some songs that I already knew but I wouldn't say any of the other songs that I didn't know were that memorable. All songs sounds a bit same-ish

Sometimes it’s just nice to know what you’re getting here. Especially when what you’re getting is some good solid glam rock metal.

Noisy, blustery and fast. Sweet child of mine sticks out compared to the pace of the other album bits. Angry, mighty and a punky album for a Monday. Welcome to the Jungle the pref.

Not my bag

This was better than I expected! I’m not a fan of metal (in its various guises) but while these songs had some of the usual traits I dislike, including macho lyrics, screaming vocals and show-off guitar playing, I did appreciate the ‘attack’ or urgent feel of the songs and the rhythm guitar in particular. In places it almost sounded like punk rock.

I've never really listened to Guns N' Roses other than their hit songs so I was pleased to hear that they're good head banging heavy metal. It's not a genre I normally listen to a lot but it's good for an occasional dabble. Good solid guitars and drums with screaming vocals. The screaming vocals don't do much for me but again once in a while they're OK.

not as bad as I remembered (I got sick of hearing them in the early 90s), but I couldn't listen to sweet child again. Axl's vocals get a little grating after a while, but some of the tracks are reasonably well structured & interesting. An echo or two of the stones at times

Sweet Child O Mine is fab. But the screechy vocals are wearing.

Christ on a stick I can't stand G&R. Never have. I'm down for inane rock and roll but good molly there's better inane rock and roll out there. The only reason I'm not giving it one star is the fact that Slash is undoubtably a guitar god. Just wish he played for a different band for this part of his career.

a bunch of legendary tracks, but looking back this feels like a theatrical stereotype of 80s glam pop rock metal-ish waiting. can't fault them for making music that stands the test of time though. 3.5/5

So many songs are what I think of when I hear Guns N' Roses

Buen album. No me gustan mucho los guns pero lo volveria a escuchar de vuelta

Greatest rock album of the 80s and probably the greatest debut album for a band as well.

only giving this a 2 bc of welcome to the jungle which i did a dance recital to as a child

"Appetite For Destruction" is the soundtrack to the Gravitron ride at every small, hick-town county fair.

Three epic hits, one decent hit and then some decent hard rock songs that verge on filler. These three hits take this to what otherwise might be a 3, but I'll give it a 4.

Here’s my take: “Sweet Child O’ Mine” is one of the greatest rock songs of the 80s, and “Welcome to the Jungle” is a 10/10 introduction to a band. Beyond that, the album is fine, but fairly run-of-the-mill Van Halen-styled heavy metal. Yet those two tracks buoy the rest of the album, deservedly so.

Five stars without hesitation. Appetite for Destruction is stacked with songs that still hit just as hard today as they did in the late ’80s. From the grit and punch of “Welcome to the Jungle” to the swagger of “Paradise City,” it’s jam packed with energy, memorable hooks, and lots of attitude. And the second that opening riff of Sweet Child o’ Mine kicks in? Instant air guitar. Every time. This is the album that launched Guns N’ Roses into long-term rock dominance. Raw, loud, unforgettable — a debut that didn’t just arrive, it exploded. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

5.0 (53:52, 12 tracks Debut, 1987) Hard Rock Can't overemphasize how much the album meant to me. In 1987 I was getting bored with Dark Wave and looking for a new sound. Most of my friends were listening to Hair Metal but it was too pop and glam for me. When this album broke it had zero radio play (87) but I wore it out on cassette (literally, bought it twice before I bought it on CD after making the transition, have bought the CD 3 times due to scratching then theft. G n R got their monies worth from me on this album). Most of the album's themes reflect the band's personal experiences and daily life, including their youth. The cover of the album depicts a Celtic cross and skulls representing each of the five band members: Izzy Stradlin as the top skull, Steven Adler as the left skull, Axl Rose as the center skull, Duff McKagan as the right skull, and Slash as the bottom skull. Appetite for Destruction initially received little mainstream attention, and it was not until the following year that the album became a commercial success, after the band had toured and received significant airplay with the singles "Welcome to the Jungle", "Paradise City", and "Sweet Child o' Mine". The album went on to reach number one. Eventually certified 18× platinum, making it among the top 10 best-selling albums in the United States, as well as the best-selling debut album in the country. Guns N' Roses' first recordings were for a planned EP in March 1985, shortly after the band formed, with "Don't Cry", a cover of "Heartbreak Hotel", "Think About You" and "Anything Goes". However, plans for the release fell through, as original guitarist Tracii Guns left. A then Bill Rose (later Axl) had joined L. A. Guns when their lead singer went to jail, to form Guns and Roses (Traci Guns being replaced by Slash.) Shortly afterward, the classic lineup of Axl Rose, Duff McKagan, Slash, Steven Adler, and Izzy Stradlin was finalized. After heavy touring of the Los Angeles club scene, the group signed with Geffen Records in March 1986. In December of that year, the group released the four-song EP Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide, which was designed to keep interest in the band alive while the group withdrew from the club scene to work in the studio. Axl stated many of the songs on the album were written while the band was performing on the Los Angeles club circuit, and a number of songs that were ultimately featured on later Guns N' Roses albums were considered for Appetite for Destruction, such as "Back Off Bitch", "You Could Be Mine", "November Rain", and "Don't Cry". It is said that the reason for not putting "November Rain" on Appetite for Destruction was that the band had already agreed to put "Sweet Child o' Mine" on the album, and thus already had a "ballad" on the track list. Producer Spencer Proffer was hired to record "Nightrain" and "Sweet Child o' Mine" to test his chemistry with the band. The band eventually recorded nine songs with Proffer during these sessions, including "Heartbreak Hotel", "Don't Cry", "Welcome to the Jungle", and "Shadow of Your Love". The band initially considered Paul Stanley of Kiss to produce, but he was rejected after he wanted to change Adler's drum set more than Adler wanted. Robert John "Mutt" Lange was also considered, but was too expensive. Ultimately, Mike Clink (who had produced several Triumph records) was chosen. Slash struggled to find a guitar sound, before coming up with a Gibson Les Paul copy equipped with Seymour Duncan Alnico II pickups and plugged into a Marshall amplifier. He spent hours with Clink paring down and structuring his solos. The total budget for the album was about $370,000. According to drummer Steven Adler, the percussion was done in just six days, but Rose's vocals took much longer, as he insisted on doing them one line at a time, and Rose's perfectionism drove the rest of the band away from the studio as he worked. Many of the songs on Appetite For Destruction began as solo tracks that individual band members began separately from the band, only to be completed later. These songs include "It's So Easy" (Duff McKagan) and "Think About You" (Izzy Stradlin). "Rocket Queen" was an unfinished Slash/McKagan/Adler song from their earlier band Road Crew, and "Anything Goes", written by Hollywood Rose and included on their compilation album The Roots of Guns N' Roses, was re-written for Appetite. Most of the songs reflect the band's personal experiences and daily life, such as "Welcome to the Jungle", some of the lyrics of which Rose wrote after he encountered a man in New York shortly after arriving there from Indiana in 1980, and "Mr. Brownstone", which is about the band's problems with heroin. Lyrics to some of the songs focus on the band members' younger years, like "Out ta Get Me", which focuses on lead singer Axl Rose's constant trouble with the law as a youth in Indiana. The album's original cover art was based on Robert Williams' painting Appetite for Destruction. It depicted a robotic rapist about to be punished by a metal avenger. After several music retailers refused to stock the album, some Geffen executives compromised and put the controversial cover art inside, replacing it with an image depicting a Celtic cross and skulls representing each of the five band members (top skull: Izzy Stradlin, left skull: Steven Adler, center skull: Axl Rose, right skull: Duff McKagan, and bottom skull: Slash). In a 2016 interview, Billy White Jr., explained: "The cross and skulls that looked like the band was Axl's idea, the rest was me. The knot work in the cross was a reference to Thin Lizzy, a band Axl and I both loved." The original cover was supposed to be on the 2008 vinyl reissue of the album, though executives replaced it with the "skulls" art at the last minute. The band stated the original artwork was "a symbolic social statement, with the robot representing the industrial system that's raping and polluting our environment." In albums which were issued on double sided media (vinyl records and audio cassettes), the two sides were labeled "G" and "R", rather than the conventional "A" and "B". Tracks 1–6, which compose side "G", all deal with drugs and hard life in the big city ("Guns" side). The remaining tracks, which compose side "R", all deal with love, sex, and relationships ("Roses" side). In an interview with That Metal Show in 2011, Rose stated his initial idea was for the cover art to be the photo of the Space Shuttle Challenger exploding that was on the cover of Time magazine in 1986, but Geffen rejected the idea, saying it was "in bad taste". Slash recalled: "We thought we'd made a record that might do as well as, say, Motörhead. It was totally uncommercial. It took a year for it to even get on the charts. No one wanted to know about it." The album was not well received by contemporary American critics, many of whom complained that its massive success with consumers was fostered by the taboo of "sex, drugs and rock & roll" during the 1980s, when much of the cultural atmosphere in the US became informed by the Reagan-Bush Administration, the AIDS crisis, and the popularity of MTV. In a retrospective review for The Rolling Stone Album Guide (2004), Ann Powers wrote that Guns N' Roses "produced a unique mix of different rock values", such as "speed and musicianship, flash and dirt", on an album that "changed hard rock's sensibilities at the time." Stephen Thomas Erlewine also viewed the album as a "turning point for hard rock", and felt Rose's singing and songwriting were enhanced by Slash and Stradlin's dual guitar playing, which helped make Appetite for Destruction "the best metal record of the late '80s". According to Jimmy Martin of The Quietus, the album, which he called "the greatest hard rock record of the 80s", has an "unrefined, punk quality" that marked a "shift away" from the hair metal bands commercialized by MTV. Rolling Stone ranked the album as #62 on Rolling Stone's updated list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" 1.“Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N' Roses is a gritty portrayal of the dark side of Los Angeles, depicting the city as a predatory environment where survival is a constant struggle. The song's most famous line—"You know where you are? You're in the jungle baby, you're gonna die!"—was inspired by a real encounter. While getting off a bus in New York City, a homeless man yelled these words at Axl Rose and a friend, likely trying to intimidate the young runaways. The song was one of the first collaborations of the classic lineup. Slash provided the iconic opening riff, while bassist Duff McKagan contributed a breakdown section from a 1978 punk song he wrote called "The Fake". The "Concrete Jungle" serves as a metaphor for the Hollywood streets, where newcomers seeking fame are often met with danger, drugs, and moral decay instead. "Ya learn to live like an animal" reflect the need to adapt to a "predatory" environment where rational thought is often replaced by primal instincts. The song highlights that "everything has its price". Verses describe the temptation of "fun and games" (sex, drugs, and fame) while warning that these vices will eventually "bring you down". "My Serpentine" refers to Axl Rose's signature "snake dance," which he adopted from Richard Black of the band Shark Island. Radio stations originally did not want to play "Welcome to the Jungle", and MTV did not want to air the song's music video. However, after several months of lobbying the network, Geffen general manager Al Coury convinced MTV to play the video just once a night for three nights. "Welcome to the Jungle" became the most requested video on the network, and Coury pitched this success to radio stations, whom he sent promo copies of "Welcome to the Jungle", "Paradise City", and "Sweet Child o' Mine". 2. It's So Easy" by Guns N' Roses is a gritty, nihilistic account of the band's lifestyle in Los Angeles before they became world-famous. It focuses on the emptiness and boredom that comes when everything—specifically sex and survival—becomes too easy to obtain without effort. According to bassist Duff McKagan, the song describes a specific period when the band had no money but was surrounded by "hangers-on" and groupies who would provide for all their needs. Drummer Steven Adler noted that as they grew popular, finding a partner became "almost too easy". They could simply "shove a fishing net out the window" of a club and find someone. The refrain "but nothin' seems to please me" reflects the hollow feeling of having every desire met without any struggle or challenge. The lyrics also detail a dangerous, thrill-seeking lifestyle "I drink and drive / Everything's in sight" were literal reflections of their behavior. Axl Rose later admitted it was a "careless" time where they felt "real cool" because they were "lucky to be here" and consistently got away with their actions. "Ya get nothin' for nothin' if that's what you do" serves as a cynical commentary on the transactional nature of their relationships at the time. Originally written by Duff McKagan and their friend West Arkeen as an acoustic, "hippie ya-ya" country-style track. Slash later reworked it into the aggressive, punk-influenced rock song found on Appetite for Destruction. Axl's Deep Vocal: Axl Rose intentionally sang in a lower, more menacing register to match the "evil" and "dark" attitude of the lyrics. Duff McKagan later titled his 2011 autobiography It's So Easy (and other lies) after the song, using it to frame his personal journey through addiction and recovery. 3. "Nightrain" is a high-octane tribute to Night Train Express, an infamous brand of cheap, fortified wine that the band consumed heavily during their early days in Los Angeles. During the mid-80s, the band was "flat-broke" and living in a communal rehearsal space. At roughly $1.29 a bottle, Night Train was the most affordable way to get drunk. Axl Rose often introduced the song live by warning that Night Train would "f--k you up twice as bad" as other cheap brands like Thunderbird. Spelled as a portmanteau ("Nightrain") rather than the brand's two-word name to create a unique identity for the track. The lyrics were born one night while the band was walking down Palm Avenue in West Hollywood, sharing a bottle of the wine. One shouted, "I'm on the night train!", and the rest of the band joined in. Axl Rose began improvising the rest of the lines—like "Bottoms up!" and "Fill my cup!"—on the spot. Slash describes the song as an "anthem" and his personal favorite to perform live because the rhythm in the verses always made him "go crazy". 4. "Out Ta Get Me" is a defiant anthem about paranoia and the feeling of being targeted by authority figures, specifically the police and the legal system. The song is deeply rooted in Axl Rose’s youth in Lafayette, Indiana. Before moving to L.A., Axl was frequently arrested for minor offenses like public intoxication and battery. Local police allegedly told him they were going to "get him" if he didn't leave town. The lyric "I'm an innocent victim / And that's the story of my life" was Axl’s way of expressing that he felt unfairly picked on by small-town authorities who saw him as a troublemaker. "They're out ta get me / They won't leave me alone" captures the claustrophobic feeling of being constantly watched and judged. Slash wrote the primary guitar riff, which the band felt perfectly captured the "angry and aggressive" energy of Axl's lyrics. It became a staple of their early live shows because it allowed the band to bond with their audience over a shared disdain for "the man" and authority. 5. "Mr. Brownstone" is a candid, cautionary tale about the band’s burgeoning heroin addiction during their early years in Los Angeles. "Brownstone" was a common street slang term for brown heroin. By personifying the drug as "Mr. Brownstone," the band created a character that represented their dealer and the addiction itself. "I get up around seven / Get outta bed around nine" followed by "I used to do a little, but a little wouldn't do / So the little got more and more" perfectly describe the escalating tolerance and the lethargy associated with opioid use. They famously scribbled the lyrics on the back of a pizza box (specifically a grocery bag or pizza box depending on the interview) while waiting for their dealer to arrive. It was a literal documentation of their daily struggle to function. "He's been knockin' / He won't leave me alone" also serves as a double entendre. While it refers to the drug, it also alluded to the pressure from record executives who were trying to sign the band while they were high and unreliable. "Mr. Brownstone" is notably self-aware and cynical, portraying the addiction as a boring, repetitive cycle that interfered with their music. Despite the dark subject matter, the song features one of Slash’s most famous Bo Diddley-inspired "shuffling" riffs. Ironically, the song was written before their addictions became life-threatening; later in the band's career, it became a point of tension as members struggled to stay sober. Youwza! 6. "Paradise City" is the band's anthem about escapism, contrasting the gritty reality of their lives in Los Angeles with a nostalgic, idealized vision of "home." While "Welcome to the Jungle" describe the "hell" of the L.A. streets, "Paradise City" represents the yearning to be somewhere else. For Axl Rose, the "green grass" and "pretty girls" often referred to a romanticized version of his hometown in Indiana, or simply a place of peace away from the chaos of the city. "Take me down to the Paradise City" suggest a place where things are easier, cleaner, and more vibrant than the "concrete jungle" they were currently living in. The song was written in the back of a rented van while the band was returning from a gig in San Francisco. Slash started playing the opening riff, and Axl began singing the famous chorus line. In the original jam, Slash wanted the second half of the chorus to be "Where the girls are fat and they've got big titties." The rest of the band overruled him, opting for the more radio-friendly "Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty." Lines like "Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber" and "Payin' any price just to get by" reflect the same themes of desperation found throughout the Appetite for Destruction album. The song acknowledges that the "Paradise City" might just be a dream or a "mirage" that they are chasing. Because of its massive, anthemic sound and fast-paced "double-time" ending, it has been the band's traditional final song at almost every concert since 1987. 7. "My Michelle" is one of the band's most brutally honest tracks, written about a real-life friend of the band, Michelle Young. Michelle Young was a "tough" girl from the L.A. scene who was close with the band. One night, while she was in a car with Axl Rose, the Elton John song "Your Song" came on the radio. She remarked that she wished someone would write a song about her. Axl initially tried to write a "sweet" and romanticized song, but it didn't feel authentic to her life. He scrapped it and wrote the stark, gritty truth about her instead. When Axl showed her the lyrics (which detailed her drug use and her mother's death), he was worried she’d be angry. Instead, she loved the honesty, saying it was a relief to have someone tell the truth about her situation. "Your daddy works in porno / Now that Mommy's not around" was a literal reference to her father's job in the adult film industry and her mother's passing. "Everyone's out to get you / You're only out to get your next fix" reflect the cycle of drug dependency she was trapped in at the time. Despite the dark content, the song is ultimately about the strong bond between Michelle and the band, acknowledging her as a survivor of the Hollywood streets. The song starts with a clean, eerie guitar intro by Slash before exploding into an aggressive riff, mirroring the transition from the "romantic" idea of a tribute song to the harsh reality of the lyrics. Michelle Young eventually moved out of L.A. and got clean, frequently credited the song with being a "wake-up call" for her. 8. "Think About You" buried at #8 is one of the few overtly romantic songs on Appetite for Destruction, while it sounds like a straightforward love song, there has long been debate over whether the "you" refers to a woman or heroin. Axl Rose has stated it is a love song The song was primarily written by Izzy Stradlin, who was the band’s most frequent songwriter for their "lighter" or more melodic tracks. Because Izzy was struggling with drug use at the time, some fans interpret lyrics like "I get so high" and "I'm diamond blue" as double entendres for the "romance" of addiction. This is one of the oldest songs on the album, dating back to the band's predecessor group, Hollywood Rose. It represents a bridge between their earlier, more glam-influenced sound and the heavier rock they eventually perfected. Unless about heroine, compared to the predatory nature of "Welcome to the Jungle" or the darkness of "Mr. Brownstone," this track shows a more vulnerable side of the band. It features a "rolling" guitar rhythm and a fast tempo, creating a sense of urgency that matches the feeling of "obsessive" love. 9. Sweet Child O' Mine" is the band’s most successful power ballad, written as a tribute to Axl Rose's then-girlfriend (and later wife), Erin Everly. Axl wrote the lyrics as a poem for Erin, the daughter of Don Everly (of The Everly Brothers). It captures the "purity" and comfort he felt with her amidst the chaos of the band's lifestyle. "Reminds me of childhood memories" and "Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky" describe the rare sense of innocence she brought out in him. The iconic opening riff started as a "joke." Slash was sitting in the band's house playing a repetitive, "circus-like" melody as a technical finger exercise. While Slash hated the riff and thought it was "silly," Izzy Stradlin began playing chords behind it, and Axl immediately started singing over it from the other room. For years, Slash was vocal about his dislike for the song because it was "too sappy" and didn't fit the band's "tough" image, though he eventually embraced its legendary status. The famous "breakdown" at the end of the song happened by accident. While recording the demo, the band didn't know how to end the track. Axl started saying to himself, "Where do we go? Where do we go now?" Producer Spencer Proffer suggested he just sing those words, creating one of the most famous outros in rock history. It was the band's only Number 1 single on the Billboard Hot 100. The music video features Erin Everly herself, along with the other band members' girlfriends at the time, emphasizing the "family" feel of the track. 10. You're Crazy" is a high-energy blast of frustration directed at a woman whose erratic behavior and "mind games" became too much for the band to handle. The song is a blunt, aggressive "breakup" anthem. It captures the moment a partner’s "eccentricities" cross the line into genuine instability. "You've been known to shake it / But I'm the one who's shakin' now" suggest that while the woman was fun or provocative, she eventually pushed the narrator to a breaking point. Axl Rose uses the song to call out dishonesty and manipulation, with the refrain "You're f--kin' crazy" serving as his final, exasperated verdict on the situation. "You're Crazy" is unique because the band released two very different versions of it: On Appetite for Destruction, it is a lightning-fast, punk-metal track. It’s played at a breakneck speed that mirrors the "manic" energy of the person the song is about. On the 1988 album GNR Lies, the band released the song in its original acoustic form. This version is slower, bluesier, and more soulful, allowing the "pain" and "exhaustion" in the lyrics to stand out more than the anger. Like "Think About You," this was an early staple of the band's live set. They originally wrote it as an acoustic track but "sped it up" for their debut album to fit the aggressive "wall of sound" they were creating at the time. 11. Anything Goes" is the most sexually explicit track on Appetite for Destruction, serving as a raw celebration of the hedonistic and "no-limits" lifestyle the band led in the mid-80s. The song is a literal description of a wild, drug-fueled night where social norms and boundaries are ignored. "Experimentation" and "fantasies," with the recurring theme that as long as it's consensual and high-energy, "anything goes." It captures the specific atmosphere of the Sunset Strip scene, where excess was encouraged and the nights were defined by a "anything can happen" mentality. Hollywood Rose Era: This song dates back to 1981, written by Axl Rose and Izzy Stradlin for their previous band, Hollywood Rose. The original 1981 version was much slower and more "bluesy." By the time it was recorded for Appetite in 1987, the band had injected it with a much faster, more "industrial" and aggressive tempo to match the rest of the album's energy. Axl uses his signature "raspy" scream to convey a sense of urgency and chaos. The song is notable for Slash’s use of the "Talk Box" guitar effect, which gives the instrument a "vocal" quality, similar to the style used by Joe Walsh or Peter Frampton, but with a much dirtier, "GNR" twist. 12. "Rocket Queen" is the grand finale of Appetite for Destruction, serving as a two-part epic that transitions from gritty, sexual aggression to a surprisingly soulful expression of loyalty. The song was written about Barbi Von Greif, a 30-year-old "queen of the underground scene" in L.A. who had mentored a young Axl Rose. Barbi had a band called "Rocket Queen," and Axl wrote the song as a tribute to her influence on his life. Axl described her as someone who was "keeping him alive" at the time. The song reflects his complicated feelings for her—part lust, part deep respect. The song is notorious for the moaning sounds heard during the bridge. To add "authenticity" to the track, Axl invited Adriana Smith (who was the on-and-off girlfriend of drummer Steven Adler) into the studio. They had sex in the vocal booth while engineers recorded the audio. Axl wanted to create a "spontaneous" and "shocking" moment that captured the raw, dangerous energy of the band's reality. The song is unique for its dramatic shift in tone halfway through: Part 1 (The Grunge): The first half is a "sleazy," funk-driven rocker with predatory lyrics about sex and power. Part 2 (The Redemption): Around the 3:30 mark, the music shifts into a melodic, uplifting anthem. The lyrics change from "I'm gonna f--k you" to "I'll be there for you." This second half is Axl’s "thank you" to Barbi. It offers a rare moment of hope on a very dark album, ending with the promise: "No one ever told me that it's okay to believe in you / But I do." The song is anchored by a "galloping" bass line from Duff McKagan and a "swampy" guitar riff from Slash. It is widely considered by critics and fans to be the most musically sophisticated track on the album. Singles Appetite for Destruction: "It's So Easy" with "Mr. Brownstone", "Welcome to the Jungle", "Sweet Child o' Mine", "Paradise City", and "Nightrain". "Sweet Child o' Mine" would reach the top of the Billboard Hot 100, while "Welcome to the Jungle" and "Paradise City" would also reach the top 10 on the Hot 100. I love this album so much, it’s hard to pick a favorite song but I’m going with Nightrain then Mr. Brownstone, not their biggest hits but such great writing.

Classic 90s hair metal

Fun album

Not very good

Three iconic so gs

Never really a GnR fan. SCoM brilliant. Rest shouty US soft rock.

Exceptional album, so close to being a 5 but just not quite for me

- 1 nummer toegevoegd aan MMMM - 2 nummers al toegevoegd aan MMMM

The hits are great, the other tracks are fine

I ain't listening to that.

Should we deduct points for Axel’s occasionally offensive lyrics, not to mention the inside cover art? If not, then we’re lookin’ at a bonafide 5-star 80’s metal/ hard rock banger.

Boomers are gonna be mad that I don't give this 6/5

A classic that I grew up hearing on repeat. Not my thing personally but not bad by any means. This album would be more nostalgic if the songs weren't still being played into the ground. Favorite song: Sweet Child O' Mine

Slash really is one of the guitar greats, the man brings a flawless performance on all of these tracks (even the slightly duff ones) and Axl does the screechy screeches very well - it’s just a shame he doesn’t use his more mellow tone to full effect until the next couple of albums. So many classic tracks that it’s hard to know where to begin. Rocket Queen, Nightrain and Mr Brownstone all excel… and then there’s (in my opinion) one of the best album openers on a rock record in the form of Welcome To The Jungle. I will say though, Appetite For Destruction has become a victim of its own success. Constant radio play has eroded a lot of these tracks and I even find Sweet Child O’ Mine grating whenever it first comes on, only warming to it again by the time the second verse kicks around. This - and the lack of musical variety which is admittedly a personal preference - is the main reason why a full listen of AFD is a bit draining in parts where even a lot of double albums aren’t, but still a great time when all’s said and done.

Truly an album meant for 12 year olds. When you grow up hearing hair metal as the hardest thing you think GnR is a new face on the genre but hearing it again it just feels as stale as everyone else of that time. That's not to say it's all horrible - the musicianship is awesome and Slash is undeniably good. There's also hints of grunge and rock to come buried deep in the layers of the music. But between that and the god-awful lyrics this just can't hold up anymore.

When Guns N' Roses crashed onto the Sunset Strip with Appetite for Destruction, they didn’t just revive sleazy hard rock—they weaponized it. The band’s 1987 debut is a snarling, streetwise blast of attitude and excess, fusing the bluesy swagger of Aerosmith with the ominous heft of Black Sabbath, then injecting it with a jolt of punk volatility. The result is a record that feels both indebted to its forebears and brazenly forward-looking, laying groundwork for the late-’80s and early-’90s hard rock explosion. “Welcome to the Jungle” kicks things off with coiled menace and explosive release, a high-energy opener that still sounds dangerous decades later. “Paradise City” stretches into a fist-pumping epic without losing its grit, while “Sweet Child O’ Mine” tempers the grime with one of the era’s most indelible riffs—less a power ballad than a radio-conquering anthem that proved the band could channel vulnerability without sacrificing edge. Appetite may not reinvent rock & roll, but it plays it with enough hunger and menace to remind you why it mattered in the first place.

"Body parts don't have sounds" ASS:

you gotta admit SWEEET CHIIILD OF MIIIINE is sick lol, 3.5

would have rather watched paint dry than listen to this

i have a cold and somehow this is far worse

Vague atmosphere in this I guess ? That's about as much kind as I can say about it and it's an atmosphere I don't find pleasant so.

This brings about vivid memories as a young boy. Putting my hockey gear into the 2001 Acura MDX that had been warming up in the driveway and listening to GnR, Motley Crue and Metallica while chowing down a sausage egg and cheese from Dunkin polished off by a red bull. The sausage egg and cheese from Dunkin, like many other fast food items in this country, has gone down hill. The egg used to be a scramble patty with peppers and onions and now it’s a weird almost fake egg over hard. The sausage is now bland as well they used to have a lovely blend of spices in the sausage. Anyway the album is fine..

An album full of high energy hard rock tracks. I've heard Welcome to the Jungle, Paradise City and Sweet Child O' Mine a million times each and even though I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to them more they are pretty good. Mr Brownstone and Nightrain were the best of the tracks I wasn't familiar with. Overall I find the tracks a bit simple (except for the guitar solos) and even though it's a fun listen it doesn't quite click with me.

Zone out more in the 1st half of the album than 2nd half. Good music to listen to while puzzling.

A few classics, but some are honestly a bit overplayed. Still was a decent listen though

It's raucous fun from start to finish.

This album is annoying. The singles (Jungle/Paradise/Sweet Child) are soooo gooood and really timeless. The rest is so meh. As an album probably a two, for the singles it’s a five, average out and round up to four.

You can’t throw a rock without a radio station playing one of these songs. Full of classics, albeit overplayed by media, still a defining album of hair metal and 80s rock.

#37/1001 🇺🇸 It's hard to believe a band could appear on the scene so fully formed with album that still stands the test of time now. Hearing this at 12 yrs old shone a light on so much musically for me. Ok it could have been the swearing and the recording of Axl having sex with a groupie in Rocket Queen. Listening now there is a lot that doesnt sit right in some of the mysoginistic lyrics but there are some amazing songs here. Best tracks: Its So Easy, Mr Brownstone, Welcome to the Jungle.

Unfortunately, one great opening riff doesn’t make for a great album.

Jeg var klar til å måtte forsvare meg her, med at den er så harry og ukul og jeg er fra Finnsnes osv osv. Men dere er like harry, ukul og fra Finnsnes som meg, awww <3

En av 80-tallets beste rockeplater. Så mye gull.

9/10 Toppen av kjøttbonerock! Finnes det et debutalbum med flere hits? Hadde de sløyfa Anything Goes og You’re Crazy, ville det blitt 10/10.

Hørt på vei til jobb. For en pangstart på dagen. Litt harry med også ganske fett, haha.

Festrock. Hørte den to ganger på rappen. Klassiker.

Kind of amazed this was their debut album, didn’t realise how many of their big songs were on this. I do think this is ‘the’ album to represent 80’s rock and it is pretty astounding how many tracks we still hear all these decades later in general pop culture.

Classic rock, damn good

Favorite songs: Welcome to the Jungle, It's So Easy, Mr. Brownstone, Paradise City, Sweet Child o' Mine, You're Crazy

Great album

oooo suit chaild ou maineeee FAVS (top 3): its so easy, out ta get me, think about you mençoes honrosas: welcome to the jungle, nightrain, mr brownstone, paradise city, sweet child o mine, anything goes, rocket queen FODA FODA FODA FODA muito foda! foda.... nota final: 4.5/5

Last gasp of 80s hair metal, but a really great gasp.

Favorite tracks: Mr. Brownstone, Out Ta Get Me, Sweet Child O' Mine

What did I know about this album/artist before I listened? I know these dudes were huge in the hard rock/heavy metal scene of the late ‘80s. I’ve heard the singles a bunch and know about their personalities. I’m presuming that, as a whole, it’s not going to stray very far from what I’ve heard so far - I assume that the singles are very good indicators of what the album sounds like as a whole. What are my first impressions? “Welcome to the Jungle” is a great opening track. That guitar delay gets your attention and forces you to tune in, and by the time you know it, the entire band is playing and I imagine this sets the tone for the album. It feels both gritty AND over the top. What genre(s) come to mind as I listen? Are there any specific artists that are evoked? Hard rock, absolutely. There are parts of this that don’t sound very far apart from glam metal (“Nighttrain”), which I feel like would be something GNR would be mad about being associated with (if they even had an opinion about that kind of thing). “Paradise City” is like basically just Aerosmith. I never noticed that before. I would have slotted them to be a little more “metal” overall, but these riffs are filled with blues-based boogie that you don’t generally hear in metal. “Think About You” screams 80s new wave in the chorus. Is the production appropriate for the sound/era? I like the production. It sounds a little dirtier than a lot of the metal that was on the radio at the time, but it also fits alongside it very well. The clean guitar that kept popping up in the second half of the album was nice. A clean guitar playing a lick over distorted rhythm guitar is a sound that always sticks out to me, and I wasn’t expecting in that “Think About You” chorus, but it mixed the sound up in a way when the album really needed it. None of these songs needed to be 6+ minutes, let alone three of them. What did the lyrics evoke? What did the singer sound like? Were the lyrics more simple or clever, direct or vague? Axl has more swagger in his voice than I think I gave him credit for. He sounds build for radio rock, but also has personality and attitude in his vocals. That swagger allows him to get away with some grace notes in a few songs that clearly clash with the chords, but aesthetically work. The lyrics seem pretty straightforward, ruminations from a derelict who thinks he’s on top of the world now that he’s moved to LA. Let it be known that these dudes always said what was on their mind, consequences be damned (let’s not talk about “One in a Million” from the following album). What is your favorite track/why? Least favorite/why? Most - “Nighttrain”, “Paradise City” Least - “My Michelle”, “Anything Goes” What sort of situation/vibe would you find yourself playing this album in? Playability factor? I’d probably listen to this again, but to be honest, I don’t know when. Maybe if I need something at work that’ll keep me moving. Final summary? I think this is the kind of album that I like and appreciate more than I would ever specifically listen to. I enjoyed jamming to these singles again, and some of the deep cuts were fun, but I don’t really see myself returning to this album very often, if at all. I wonder if hearing a good chunk of this album on the radio for decades makes the rest of it feel anticlimactic in a way? Like, there were few surprises coming into this. It does the job it’s supposed to do. I’m sure this was a game-changer back in ‘87, but it’s hard to hear that now.

I would love to be cool about this and slag off this album. When I think of the biggest ‘cock rock’ tracks ever I immediately think of it’s mg life Bon Jovi and Sweet Child O Mine which is on this album. HOWEVER. Barring that what an album this is, it was my introduction to heavy rock and I think it is wall to wall rock riff artistry. It’s so easy & rocket queen are highlights for me.

Guns and Roses guys might be up there as the worst kind of heavy rock guys you can get. That aside, it has songs that are quite good and has a fair decent rep in terms of heavy albums for its time, so you have to give Axl his Roses. I do think that the big hitters here are the sort of rock that has aged terribly, with the kind of hits that you get on guitar hero or in the cheese room at pryzm. I guess I just don’t think time has been their friend somehow, and whilst I’m sure that guys like Dave Grohl and Josh Homme were influenced by them, I think they’ve probably managed to produce the Chad Kroeger’s of the music world instead.

What can I say.... this album is what it is. I understand that it is full of 'hits' which is pretty incredible for a debut album but for me personally, I just can't seem to like this band. Never have never will. Welcome To The Jungle is ok but that's as far as a I can stretch in giving them a positive review.

Debüt vom Allerfeinsten. Laut, kraftvoll, breitbeinig! Macht dem Genre alle Ehre!

An about banger of an album!!! I already knew some of the iconic songs, but never had listened to the whole thing. Incredible, I loved so much, the guitar solos, the screaming vocals. You just have to listen to this full blast, the louder the better!! It's definitely going to my favorites, 5 ⭐️

Kind of a classic dad rock album (which I guess tells more about my age). Still has enough a sleazy sound to add some transgression; which the lyrics don't really help with. Still has three of the greatest classic rock songs of all time on it, so that helps to balance out. However, outside of SCoM, PC, and WttJ, its just too much of the same and the songs sort of blend together.

Paradise city

surprised how many songs I already knew

Classic rock

117/1001 Hard to hear some of these songs with fresh ears. They are so overplayed. Not an album I play often but there are no skips here for me. No ballads either. An all out rocker. A debut no less. An iconic cover and a wild alternative cover by Robert Williams. There’s so much more here than just the singles. A perfect album? Now that I really think about it. 10/10

Really good, kinda like back in black but better. improved on the formula.

Ridiculous.

Their sound, and production, is tight as hell, and the whole band were dialled in for sure. But it does just feel a bit boring at times, I don’t know if that’s because the obvious suspects have been overplayed beyond belief by the “real rock radio!!” types maybe? It does just run out of steam very quickly I found on a re-listen. That said, I love Nightrain, that’s a real powerful, take no prisoners track for sure. Also Slash will always have a place in my heart, his sound and style fully got me into playing guitar, the man is a legend.

Historically Î understand this is the transition from hair metal to the harder alt rock scene of the 90s. At the same time, not my favorite. I do like Mr Brownstone tho.

a classic album - already knew a couple from here so was nice to listen to the full album. welcome to the jungle is such a strong opener

Ok a classic

Meh. I don’t love Guns n Roses. I don’t mind the ballads, but I like “nice” songs better. I like what’s his butts voice on those. The album is too ‘vulgar’ for me I guess? I sound like such an old prude.

It’s just not for me. I know GnR are massive and they have their lovers, and the album at the time was era defining … but personally I would say, it’s a lot of filler, chuff, and above all, copy and paste. It’s an undeservingly generous 3 out of 5 for me, based only on the hits, 1 single point for Welcome to the Jungle, another for Paradise City, and the final point for Sweet Child of mine … Naturally. Bang average.

Top 3: 1. Nightrain 2. Sweet Child O' Mine 3. Rocket Queen Least Favourite: Out Ta Get Me

Favourite album of my youth. Hit after hit, grimy, unclean lyrics mixed with some of best rock guitar I've heard that somehow is radio friendly and not suitable for minors. So many absolute bangers, some filthy lyrics and powerful vocals (albeit in a nasally range).

Excellent honest guitar driven Rock. Not much of it around in the 80s. Two absolute classics

Just yeah

you’re in the jungle BABAAAAYYYYY

-I don't like this band at all, but I understand why a lot of people do. They were able to transform the Sunset Strip sound (e.g. Crue, Poison, etc) into something a little less plastic. If the major labels never gobbled up the underground (i.e. Nirvana), this probably would have been the dominant sound of the early 90s and we would have seen a million photocopies. Thank G-d that didn't really happen. -Every song is an extremely competent stylistic impression of Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Van Halen, AC/DC, Ted Nugent, and/or ZZ Top. There's also a good dose of quasi-Stones/Dolls riffs played through a heavy metal rig. -Axl does his thing, which is really fucking annoying to me. -The guitars are mixed so loud it's like the amp is right next to my ears. Especially Slash's guitar, which is like a 2nd lead vocal on most songs.

Beyond the mammoth singles on this album there isnt a lot to listen to. The voice is grating and the playing is plodding.

3 stars: Sweet Child of Mine > Paradise City > Welcome to the Jungle. 2 stars: Everything else. It’s just not that good.

I have an appetite for destruction of this fuckin album off this list. Nothing about this band appeals to me. I don't like Axl Rose and his whiny little chipmunk voice. I don't like Slash and his stupid hat. I never enjoyed even playing their songs in Guitar Hero. And Guitar Hero makes any song as least 2x better.

actually hated this one lmao. the only redeeming song is sweet child o mine. hard to like guns n’ roses anyway

Amazing this is their first album. Yes there are some filler tracks but the rest is so transcendant, so genuinely sleazy and killer and fun, that I can't in good conscience give it anything but five out of five. Edit: ok five months later and I keep thinking about how I gave this a five and shouldn't have. So I'm revising my score. Still a killer album, but not quite a 5. See my review of Alanis Morissette's "Jagged Little Pill" for more details.

Lots of great tracks in here. Some cursed stuff also. Guitar is great.

This is so fun to listen to. Sweet Child O' Mine is a very sick riff. Also some filler that was kinda boring. And every song probably doesn't need to be 6 minutes long, but I guess Slash needs his solo time somewhere!

Bello, repetitivo pero me gustó

I'm not the biggest Guns N Roses fan and usually view it as just another 80s "hard rock" band but this was better than I expected. I could hear that these guys actually did/do have some talent even if some of their songs ended up being overplayed and associated with drunk, overweight boomers "singing" at karaoke nights across the US. This had some really big hits, which I will admit is quite impressive for a debut album so kudos to them for that.

Nice start to my project! Fond memories of this whole album on repeat when it was released.

Basically GnR's greatest hits. Hard to judge because these songs have been on the radio all my life, so the songs seem dated and cliche, but I love how dirty their sound is compared to a lot of other stuff that came out at the time.

The vocals are awful and the instrumentals are super eh, I really didn't like any of it other than Sweet Child O Mine but that was also ruined by the vocals

No thank you

meio louco pensar q é um debut album

This album is massively carried by 3 outstanding songs and they are the 3 songs that everyone knows. The rest of the album is just slightly edgier, but ultimately generic 80s hair metal. There is no doubting of the ability on display here. Honestly those 3 songs are so good that it's a shame the rest of the album is (to me) so average. 3/5 stars, purely for those 3 songs, you know what they are, I don't need to say them.

9/10 Excellent production, surprised that I haven't listened to this album before.

I didn't listen to this as much as I would've liked. Based on the first song it would've been a great solid album, as it's a classic for a reason. The other songs served to fade into the background for me.

I'm of a generation where Gn'R were a constant presence in my musical life, at least from my tweens to early twenties. Never listened to an album, though, and on the evidence of a first Appetite listen, I don't think I ever will again. I don't know if it ever sounded like more than a hundred pale imitators and cover bands, but that's what most of it sounds like in 2026. A few shining examples of iconic songwriting aside, it's mostly just a plodding, expired mess of screech and blues rock

axl is a tard but man i love this band

Fire rock

Classic nostalgia. Still holds up.

I think this album was alright. I've probably just heard Sweet Child O Mine and Welcome to the Jungle too much, but the album didn't really hit me with anything I loved.

Not a huge fan of this form of rock. But for what it is it’s undoubtedly a great album.

I like them in spurts.

Good for gym

This was hit or miss for me but I’ve got more respect for Sweet Child O’ Mine and liked Think About You

Fuck yeah. Sometimes I’m a self admitted pretentious asshole when it comes to reviewing these records. This is not my time period or genre, but I don’t know how you listen to this album and not find yourself turning the volume up to 10. Is every song perfect? Definitely not. But the pacing of the record is great, the hits are all time classics, and overall just a great listen. 5/5

3.4 good album but thats easy to do when you make basically the same song 12 times over. faves: rocket queen, welcome to the jungle

i have an appetite to destruct this album

I had no appetite for this album when it came out, and it’s aged about as well as a head of cabbage. You know where you are? You’re in one of the circles of hell if they’re making you listen to this. Thank god grunge rendered this laughably cheesy band obsolete. But Axl Rose is a good follow on social media.

This album, chef’s kiss!

Very, very low three star. I think of this as less an album and more a vessel for the singles by GnR that everyone knows. A few extra points for breaking into the mainstreams and creating timeless classics.

No skips

Didn’t expect to like this one so much. Talk about rock and roll turned up to 11.

annoying voice good songs

Guns 'n' Roses (along with Motley Crue and a few select others) were among the 80's hair bands that proved that you could still have big hair and makeup and be badass. This album especially showcases their harder edge with nary a ballad to bring it down. The closest thing they gave us to a ballad on this record was "Sweet Child o'Mine" and even that is a stretch. They lost a little bit of that edge on subsequent releases. Who knows if it was record company pressure, trying to keep up with their contemporaries, or what...but this is by far and away their strongest effort. It's a shame that they are one of "those" bands that never lived up to their debut, but what a debut it was. The whole album is like a greatest hits collection as far as I'm concerned. This is one of the albums that I would play for an alien race if they didn't blow us up immediately (honestly I wouldn't blame them) to say "this is rock n' roll".

2/5 sanoitukset eivät miellyttäneet

I was so ready to hate this, I went in with such low expectations and enjoyed it a lot. I had to skip sweet child o' mine so I couldn't get an opportunity to change my mind

This was an interesting listen; I think I had only heard a little over half of it before but the half that I had heard as been burned into my brain. I've never been a huge fan of GNR but you have to respect how fully-formed of a debut this is. I can't imagine how this crazy would have sounded back in 1987.

Här radas det upp klassiker. Dessutom är både Axls röst och Slash gitarr ikoniska. En klassiker - femma!

Classic and great songs, but not stand-out enough for a 5

Gross man

It’s wild that this was their debut album with this many hits. Is it my jam? No. Will I ever listen to it again? Also no. Good for them though.

This is a great album but only about 70% of the songs really soar. The rest are just ok, highlights are Nighttrain, Rocket Queen, and then the obvious iconic singles

Listened to this while playing Cthulhu: Death May Die. I died. The elder ones usually have that effect on people. I did not expect to like this album as much as I did. I am actually shocked that I am compelled to give this a 5. Maybe it was the epic showdown against Cthulhu, maybe it was the killer soundtrack. I can't say for sure.

This is definitely one of the best rock albums ever made (if not the best). I love GNR and I love this album even more. They were in their peak, Steven Adler was still the drummer and they will still getting along (kinda). Every single song is amazing, seriously no skips. This album is a masterpiece

Def some iconic songs on here

Never cared much for GnR, and while I recognize the “importance” of this album, it’s still not for me.

All time classic

Haven’t listened to this album since years ago in college when I was exploring different genres of rock music. This is filled with well known songs that are all huge classic rock hits. Overall, that 80s heavy metal/hard rock isn’t my favorite but plenty of it is catchy. This seems better than a lot of other 80s rock. Some of still rocks and holds up. Kinda album where I love some of the songs, but then don’t like the deeper cuts. It all really rocks out and is really fun at times, but wish it was shorter. By the time You’re Crazy rolls around you feel like this should be the closer. It’s probably a solid 3, maybe can push to a 3.5/4, not sure. Just not my kind of rock really anymore.

A couple classics, but the others don't really do anything for me.

An easy 5

One of my all-time favourites. I especially loved getting reacquainted with Out Ta Get Me and My Michelle. Rocket Queen is still my favourite.

Literally amazing. Go IU. When people say white people have no motion peep this. Sweet child o mine … my fucking god. SIX (GOD) BOW!

Mr Brownstone My Michelle Think About You Anything Goes Rocket Queen

Welcome to the Jungle Nighttrain Out Ta Get Me Paradise City Sweet Child O’ Mine (classic) Rocket Queen

That’s a lot of hits on the debut, and maybe it’s the radios fault but I can’t stand any of these songs.

Hell of a debut album. No need to own a copy of this one because it seems like every Rock radio station seems obligated to play the shit out of these songs. 4.5⭐️

This shit rocks. Singles still hold up after all the years. Other songs like 'Mr. Brownstone', 'My Michelle', and 'Think About You' are damn good too. Just feels a little long....chop off 10-12 minutes and it might be a 5.

Listened to it many times; kick ass album, one that has given me many years of joy listening with friends. From the iconic Slash guitar licks and the distinctive voice of Rose, this is hard rock at it's most fun and I wouldn't be without it. Honestly, my favourite songs on this album are all the top ones in "Sweet Child O' Mine", "Paradise City" and "Welcome to the Jungle". Largely have video games, of all things, to blame for that.

Just okay.

Fuck yeah! Axl Rose’s voice is just so good at expressing emotion. His voice and Slash’s guitar elevates this to classic status beyond the genre.

This is nostalgia and raw energy rolled into one brilliant album. Fantastic ‘hit’ tracks but also a consistently brilliant collection of songs that feel impactful & memorable. The guitar work from Slash is second to none with endless great riffs, and the vocals from Axl are iconic & very of it’s time. It’s probably a 9/10 album but I’ve nudged it to a 10/10 for the pure nostalgic feel of it, taking me back to my childhood learning to play guitar.

GNR opened the door that Nirvana blew open, exposing glam rock as terrible music that is a huge waste of time. They may have started as a hair band, but quickly showed they were badasses with actual musical talent.

tengo un odio inexplicable a esta banda

i love it

album de welcome to the jungle, buena entrada, también está paradise city y sweet child o'mine

Always a great listen

It’s funny to me that the perception I have of Guns n Roses listeners are biker dudes and tough guys, because this album is actually quite flamboyant. So maybe I’m feeling generous but I did enjoy this - with its cheesy lyrics and fabulous moans and screams. Glam Rock is the kind of spectacle I can get behind.

Having never heard this entire album — or the entirety of any of the massive hits it birthed — I found myself captivated by their unique sound, and found the seedy subject matter to fit very well within it. It's easy to trace lines from them into the future and see how deep and wide their influence on all genres of music has been. As with many records on this list, it can be hard to contextualize and understand the impact of groundbreaking music from a distant future. But this one is self-evident: these musicians and their music were iconic straight out of the gate, and the success they've sustained on the back of this record alone is well-deserved. And what an album name.

Не люблю хэви-металл, но иногда нахожу для себя интересные песни. Этот альбом таковым не стал.

Idk how to do this. But if I'm personally rating this album, its 7/10. Other songs are just not in my type of music..?? but some songs are really like.. the vibe.

Hell yeah fuck yeah all the yeahs!! So damn good!! I wish I could rate this with MORE stars - it's that amazing. Decades later, it still stands the test of time and then some. And while I like to pick a "standout" song that isn't the most popular, it is really really difficult to not choose Panama City. I mean, come on, who doesn't rock the fuck out to that? And Sweet Child of Mine? CLASSIC. Anyway, I obviously loved this and these guys were absolute kings of their day - talented, passionate and life-changing. Standout (that is not Panama City or Sweet Child of Mine or Welcome to the Jungle): Rocket Queen :)

I unfortunately don’t like this type of music 🙁

HELL YEAHHHH, 10/10 love it , I already knew this album but it was nice listening to it

The bangers really bang, but the others fall really flat.

I have never been able to stand this lead singer's voice. I won't even listen

Good, great even but a victim of its own success that it gets ovrplayed to the degree that I’ve heard nearly all of an album I’ve never sat down to listen to.

Hammeralbum

Not my thing

If I could give the just Slash 5 stars I would cause that guy is fucking killing it. Even on the songs I wanted to skip Slash is over there just blowing it out of the water. Axl Rose's voice is too much like Geddy Lee of Rush and both make me want to pull my hair out. My friends older sister had their posters on her wall but she was in her prime when this came out. I've always found Axl kinda gross so it goes down to a 3 for me. 5 for Slash, Axl gets a 2 and the rest of the band holds it down so a firm 3.

SO GOOD; BEEN NEEDING THIS ONE 10/10

Can't stand singer's voice..some good guitar rifts and catchy tunes but not a fan.

Utter utter poo

I mean it’s fine

Highlights: Welcome To The Jungle, Paradise City, Sweet Child O'Mine Besides the hits, I feel like this record is just a bunch of slop. It all sounds the same and the vocals get annoying after three songs in a row. For instance "Think About You" was almost 4 minutes of pure ass with no artistic or any other kind of value. It sounded vaguely similar to something I heard just 15 minutes ago. I'm just not impressed and feel like I was justified for not listening to the record in its entirety up until this point. It was kind of funny the way the record turned sexual by the end. Didn't expect that.

There were some really great songs on this album! But so many sound very similar so they didn’t always stick out to me. I enjoyed Mr. Brownstone as well as Think About You and Sweet Child O’ Mine the most!

Listen, I've listened to this record a thousand times. I can review it without another listen. But I did anyway! It remains a banger. Not a single bad track (though certainly some are better than others). Are GNR doing anything particularly special or original in this? No, not really, but they're playing some heavy blues rock exceedingly well, and I'll probably give this another thousand listens before I die.

Review - The big singles are pretty good but the rest of ihe album is a bit filler-y. I didn't know Axl Rose sings in a deeper voice sometimes, interesting that all the singles are his Bon Scott but falsetto-y style. Rating - 5.5/10 Need to hear? YES

Going into this, I thought I didn’t like Guns an’ Roses - now, I know I don’t like Guns N’ Roses. I can respect it for its cultural influence, but that doesn’t mean I have to like it. Call me simple, but I like music that actually sounds good.

It is impressive that this is the debut album of GNR, including songs like Welcome to the Jungle or Sweet Child of Mine. It is hard to go wrong with a nice guitar rift and Axl's unmistakable voice. However sometime you can do too much (Paradise City) or too little (most of the album is filler, forgettable songs). Adding all that and you have an ok album, but not much more than that.

This is the cd I used to listen to to amp myself up before math club competitions

I was not fond of this album when it came out. My opinion changed during the years. Do not forget that this is not the original cover art. That is even better than this one. NINGHTRAIN! 4.5 points, lets say 5.

Lukewarm meat and potatoes rock music with tasteless, lumpy gravy and the gristliest, chewiest meat that may well be boiled raccoon. Axl sings like a wasp has flown into his Y-fronts.

A classic album that aged reasonably well, considering how cheesy it is and how insanely overplayed it has been for the last 40 years. It's full of bangers, and the energy level is through the roof. That being said, it doesn't hit as hard as it did back in the days. It sounds a bit cartoonish to me now, I've long since moved away from this kind of rock. Some of the guitar riffs that blew my mind as a teen are definitely shallower than I remenber. And even though it's a very good album overall, I can't understand why the list didn't pick "Use Your Illusions" instead - it's one of the most sold albums in history, and a titanic influence on the mainstream 90s music scene. With better production and an arm-long list of classics (including epic ballads and bluesy songs), it's certainly more historically impactful than this one. Once again, Robert Dimery seems to obsessively go for "first albums" regardless of any other consideration. Still, Appetite for Destruction is a lot of fun, as long as you don't take it too seriously. 8/10

The lasts of an era.

This album is too rock for me and it lacks a few melodious tracks to get a 4th star

Funny, I played this album to my daughter about a week ago, and it was the first time I’d listened to it in almost thirty years. Back then, Guns N’ Roses clearly ruled the glam rock / metal scene. The intro to Appetite for Destruction is legendary, and some songs like It’s So Easy still hit hard. The downside are most of the other songs, … well, overall it’s clearly not my kind of music. Still, as a genre peak, this album does the job, and with at least three massive hits, it leaves some pretty solid memories. But I don’t like Axl Rose’s voice and the many cheesy riffs though…

I don't like GNR, but this was hard to not like. Paradise City was stuck in my head for 12 hours afterwards.

Welcome To The Jungle, Paradise City and Sweet Child O' Mine carry this album, but that's ok since all three are great songs.

I wanted to like this and gave it the best possible circumstance for listening to it. I hated them in high school and was expecting this would be a revisit where I changed long held beliefs. Nope. All the bad parts of Aerosmith on steroids. Squeely lead singer? Check. Generic blues based soft metal music with pitch perfect sound? Check. Every now and again I'd lock into a guitar riff and think "hey, that sounds good." Then I'd think "Nope, that's a Heart riff" or "That's Ozzie" or "That's (Insert another super famous rock artist from the 70s/80s)". What's good is borrowed. What remains is annoying. Not a 1, but not much higher.

Classic !

Great album, even though I find Axl a bit shrill I can see why this was a huge album

5. This album is one of the best debut albums ever made. Even before the band took off, that was already a fact. Ok, some of the songs became a little over-played but as a whole it is still a brilliant rock album. The band are a pale shadow of the band heard here, which is a shame, but they are obviously considerably older. That said, everything that followed Appetite ranged from patchy and poor (both Use Your Illusion albums) to downright awful (Chinese Democracy). Hearing this again though reminds you what they were at the time though, and it is still fucking magnificent.

Great first record, loved Slash sound when it came out, not really a fan of axl’s voice, good singles compilation but lacks a lot of depth (even for the hair metal era)

80’s Rock ⭐️Sweet Child O’ Mine

a classic - not sure it aged super well

Really good for the genre but maybe just wasnt in the mood for it. Hard to be objective so ill leave it at 2/5

Pop metal with an actual edge to it. All the instrumentalists can play well, and the vocalist has a very unique voice, for better and for worse. The hits are the hits for a reason, and all the other songs don’t hit nearly the same highs.

Крутое звучание, но не мой вайб

I don’t care for hair bands, especially not Guns N’ Roses. I couldn’t listen to more than three songs tbh.

I’ve been thinking about what a 5 star album is, and it needs to be something I would go back to continually. Which I have done for nearly 40 years, needs to be exemplary in its field- and this is genuinely in a field of its own and it needs to have a personal impact and this is the album that got me into music… yeah it’s misogynistic in places and Axl is an awful man but this is an album that captures life on the fringes of society and does it with the hugest choruses and finest solos. Platinum stuff

Actually a very sweet album. While the band name is akin to a 1999 AOL username (“choose something you like”, see mine: poniesdogs because horsespuppies was already taken). I enjoyed how it felt from the heart in certain songs.

(69/100)

Colección de temazos

Wow, I forget what a big deal it was when they came on... They really had a distinct sound that hit big. I forget how beautiful a song Sweet child of mine is.

Another album I don't think I would have experienced without this project... I can recognize this is good, don't have particular strong feelings about this album, myself, though.... Finding myself really appreciating drums and the instrumentals 🥁 Paradise City was fun

some fun guitar solos, some lyrics r just so goofy standouts: nightrain mr. brownstone sweet child o mine liking this more than i thought i would, but probably wouldn’t put it on — kinda blended together at a point

Classic, epic opening to the first song. Pretty good overall.

This brought me back to 8th grade. I had this album on repeat!

Nostalgic & fun album.

Got some good classics on it. Can't say I like all the songs, but generally enjoy this album and understand why it's so well liked.

Never have been a huge fan, but still slaps

7/10 decent album, love the vibes - basically good music but it gets a little bit repetetitve for me

not my style

This came out when I was in my mid 20s. GNR were huge. Many good songs especially Sweet Chill of Mine and Paradise City.

This rock was a little too hard for me

I like g&r (that stands for guns and roses; im just using slang) I only knew a few songs going in but I actually thought the whole album was decent and had a similar vibe which I like

I understand what it is but it’s not for me

crazy how uncs think that twink white boy was hard

My predictions: Julia: 3 Rachel: 2 Steven: 2 Patrick: 4 Paul: 4

секс, наркотики и однообразное звучание. ничего интересного. почему такое вообще становится легендарным

Geiler Sound, geile Gitarre, geile Solos – einfach ein überragender Vibe und geile Musik. Für mich wahrscheinlich das Album mit den besten Intros überhaupt. 🥇: Welcome To The Jungle 🥈: Paradise City 🥉: Rocket Queen HM: Nightrain, You're Crazy, Think About You, Out Ta Get Me Eigenes Rating: 9,8/10

new york classic

Legendary

Nearly every song is perfect. This is both the handbook of 80’s rock and roll and how to live life as a terrible person. As long as you can overlook the one the other is quite enjoyable.

I hadn’t listened to this album front to back probably since grade school but i forgot how much it slaps. So many mainstream hits much of which i think stand the test of time. Musicianship is pretty tight. Faves are “welcome to the jungle”, “paradise city”, and “sweet chile o mine”

I have mixed feelings about this record. Once upon a time this was everything I hated about mainstream music. I'll give it credit that it has an edge, and they get some cred from having Duff in the band. I think at times Axl is the weak link to their recorded output, with the screeching and whatever else he does. But I get that he's necessary for the mystique of the band. A good mix of real Glam, Aerosmith, and The Stones. When they get it right it’s enjoyable, but that’s few and far between. Ugh Welcome to the Jungle, pass. It’s So Easy is so good. And should have been the opener. My standout track for the album. Night train is just ok. Out ta Get Me/ Brownstone/ Paradise is a killer for me. OTGM is very forgettable. Brownstone is the worst of Aerosmith ripoffs, and Axl’s mumble vox are not good. It's too peppy to be about heroin. Paradise City is a song I could go without listening to again. Side two does more for me than the first. Nice groove riff in My Michelle, Think About You gets it right. Sweet Child is another overplayed single, but the solo is pretty good. You're Crazy can stay. Another filler track with Anything Goes, Rocket Queen closes strong, I love how it slows down at the end to wrap it up. 2.5, rounding up because It's So Easy is a great song and side 2 pulled me back in. Not enough to keep it in the collection though.

6/10 Favourite: Sweet Child O' Mine Least Favourite: Out Ta Get Me

The monster debut album from GnR, who would for a short while there become the biggest rock band on the planet. This is all dirty riffs, drugs, Jack Daniels and shagging groupies but before the excess of the Use Your Illusion albums four years later. It's easy to see how this stood out among the 'cock rock' hair bands of the time, they had the attitude and the songs and gained a huge following before grunge came along and did the same. Some of this has clearly inspired the likes of early Alice in Chains when you listen to it, but they draw their influences here from AC/DC, Aerosmith, Motley Crue and the New York Dolls. Later on, Axl Rose would make no secret of his love for the likes of Queen and Elton John and they took a different turn. Everybody knows Welcome to the Jungle (all-time great intro to an all-time great opener on a great album), Paradise City and the majestic Sweet Child O' Mine but the adrenaline of Night Train and Out ta Get Me, the ode to heroin that is Mr Brown stone and the underrated My Michelle more than hold their own here before Rocket Queen ends in style. This album has enough diversity to make it interesting but does not abandon its core theme. One of the best rock albums of the era, easy 5 stars.

7/10… glam metal / hard rock / *1987

Welcome to the jungle- Already knew this song, super iconic. Not my favourite as its very repetitive. 3.5/5 its so easy - different vocal performance than what I associate with acdc. Really shows their versatility early in the album. nightrain - Paradise city: Fucking fire. absolute banger and really fun to listen to. 4/5 My Michelle - Felt the first big vibe change here and yeah it was a decent song, pretty catchy, not super special tbh 2/5 Thinkin bout you - Haven't heard a super rock-ey ballad before. Fun switch up. 3/5 Scom - super hypocritical but I love this song even though its so overplayed. The electric solo intro with the slow incorporation of the lower guitars really just feels refreshing. 4.5/5 you're crazy - cool song Anything goes - fun, sexy song, feels the most like im at a dive in the 90s. Rocket queen - cool vocal filter, the breakdown at the bridge was so good, definitely my favourite part. Good song to end the album on, the outro does feel like I'm walking into the sunset waving goodbye at all the friends I made along the way as credits roll. Definitely not close to being my favourite album but I'm just not the target audience! Will say that I have major respect for the fact that this was a debut album, and it holds a pretty consistent standard. I really respect their whole "we wont rewrite a song for anyone" attitude because that is where true art comes from! You couldn't get an album this genuine from some fuckass steamrolling production company.

I have to give this album a high rating, because it was one of the most listened to albums throughout my middle teens, and I still enjoy listening to it now. Yes the lyrics are misogynistic and yes some of the tracks have been overplayed, but Sweet Child O Mine has one of the best ever guitar solos that I never tire of hearing. I listen to music to feel something and listening to this I feel nostalgia and amusement (particularly at some of the lyrics). It’s classic 80’s metal, but musically interesting too, with some interesting key and time signature changes - i.e it's not all one tone throughout. So many great tracks that I get excited to hear the open bars of. It’s true I have had a long break from listening to it but yeah I’m more than happy to listen again and enjoy it.

Absolutely massive album in terms of success. But I’ve long since outgrown it

Yes yes yessssssssss!!!!!!! Finallyyyyyy Welcome to the jungle - โคตรมัน sha na na na na neeeeeesh neeeeesh Nighttrain - มันอีกละ หัวโยก Out ta get me - ฟีลคล้าย scorpions เลย แต่มันก็ยุคๆเดียวกันอะเนอะ Mr.brownstone - rock n roll ดีว่ะ Paradise city - มันว่ะ Sweet child o’ mine - เพลงฮิต จะไม่มันได้ไงวะ Anything goes - ดูท่าทางจะชอบเพลงโทนนี้ว่ะ ติด rock n roll หน่อยๆ ไม่ชอบตะโกนเสียงแหลมเยอะๆ Rocket queen - สังเกตว่าเกลียดเพลงต้นบัม แล้วจะชอบเพลงท้ายบั้มตลอดเลย เพราะว่าเพลงท้ายๆมันจะดูผ่อนคลาย55555 อย่างเพลงนี้ถือว่าชอบสุดเลยในบรรดาที่ discover มาในวันนี้ รวมๆ ชอบ โคตรจะ 80s

oh no. This is bringing back memories of buying this album as a teenager. I will never forget the disappointment I felt after the high of Welcome to the Jungle wore off. 20 years has not helped me to enjoy this album more.

3.5, got bored

I listened to it a lot when I was 10~12. Now i find it a bit juvenile (the lyrics). I had a nostalgic listen. I still like the sound of "Paradise City".

Rating: 8/10 Short Review: As someone who listens to quite a bit of music, I can indeed confirm this is rock music.

3.5⭐️/5 01.06.2026

Music to kiss your dad on the lips to.

Couple of 4 star songs does not make a 4 star album.

Genuinely made me sick to my stomach. If I never here this album again in my life it would still be too soon

Knew sweet child of mine

bagus, tapi jujur gak ekspek sama lagu yang rocket queen

Hier ga ik dan wel een stuk beter op dan die gezapige Metallica plaat, maar ook dit is buiten de giga-hits om toch wel een beetje mwah

Wat een geschreeuw. Echt niet voor mij

Nee bedankt

Had hier geen zin in

Paradise City is de meest overbodige plaat uit de geschiedenis en de rest van deze nummers is helaas niet veel beter.

Please make him stop singing

Borderline insufferable. It’s giving “I’m trapped in the car with new people, and I don’t have control of the aux”.

How do I put my thoughts into words here? On one hand, the braggadocious, sleazy, misogynistic attitude of five loaded 20-year-old dickheads out in LA is one that (thankfully) hasn’t aged well. On the other hand, that very attitude was a straight injection of metaphorical methamphetamine to the Sunset Strip music scene. While their glammed-up contemporaries alluded to excessive drugs and sex using cheeky innuendos, GnR didn’t mince words. They fully drew back the curtain on what all these plastic rock n roll figures in the late 80s were, themselves included—huge pieces of shit. They had the music to back up the attitude. As opposed to the LA rock music of the day, which was polished, poppy, and pristine, Appetite for Destruction was raw, abrasive, and messy. The guitar duo consisting of Slash and Izzy Stradlin was a loose cannon, where established riffs were only a suggestion and the two add their own flourishes and variations, one acting as a foil to the other. The underlying rhythm section is driving and aggressive, bringing almost a punk energy to the gritty blues laid down by the guitars. It’s all to build up a rancid, rotting podium where Axl Rose, maybe the biggest affront to any new listener, shrieks his tales of tragic love and debauchery. Considering the above, I subjectively hold this record in high regard as a musical accomplishment. I also cannot forget the first time I heard Welcome to the Jungle as a budding new guitarist. I had never heard anything sounding remotely like Slash’s playing, and instantly wanted the tone, the chops, the top hat, fucking everything (minus a crippling heroin and alcohol addiction). Many today would understandably find this record annoying, excessive, and silly. But I just can’t help but get stoked when I hear it.

No es mi estilo :?

Very popular songs, some were not really my style that's all, but overall great songs

good classic rock

Personal favourites: sweet child o mine (of course), night train, paradise city Though its not my go-to genre I generally enjoyed it

Good rock sound, good musicians.

Awful - mediocre at best

Flora und Schießeisen

Du de di do di du de du Du de di do di du de du

It was quite good and i liked that even tho it was on the metal/rock style, as expected, i felt like it wasn't too heavy and i managed to finish my drawing in peace while listening to it. rating: 8.75 / 10

Solid album of hits like sweet child of mine. Liked you're crazy but after a while is sometimes grating

Loveeee guns n roses

rate: 2/5 fav song: think about you I can understand why it’s such an iconic album, however it’s unfortunately not my cup of tea. obviously know sweet child o mine and paradise city but they just don’t massively do it for me. i did enjoy think about you though. also enjoyed rocket queen until the lady started moaning?? mr brownstone also deserves a mention though i need to listen to it a bit more to work out my opinion of it.

At first I didn’t know what to expect with Welcome to the Jungle but then I got to It’s So Easy and I was like okaayyyyy yay ! I like this album, I wouldn’t say I LOVED it but yeah it was grand. I did save a couple of songs into my playlists : Out to Get Me, Paradise City and My Michelle. So that’s a good sign. Overall, it’s a nice rock album. 6/10

i listen this album a long time ago
