A hard rock band from Los Angeles, California, introduced in 1985. Their debut album Appetite for Destruction featured Top 10 singles "Welcome to the Jungle", "Paradise City", and "Sweet Child o' Mine". GNR's concerts were unpredictable, energetic, and confrontational: that's what made them a great band. Vocalist Axl Rose led the band to greatness with his stage moves, gravelly, and signature "banshee screams". Lead guitarist Slash, Izzy Stradlin, and Steven Adler all joined the band with an "us against the world" mentality. The band had a dangerous reputation as a group of misfit degenerates that impacted the rock world. They represented the idea of "sex, drugs, and rock n' roll" in the 80s.
