For a band with such a\u00a0brief discography,\u00a0Guns N’ Roses<\/a>\u00a0have packed in\u00a0a lot of music, years and drama into their history.<\/span><\/p>\n Starting with their 1987 debut, Appetite for Destruction<\/em><\/a>, the Los Angeles quintet sounded little like their Sunset Strip brethren. In an era when emphasis was just as much on appearance as it was on the music, Guns N’ Roses always put their songs and performances first.<\/p>\n They brought a sense of danger during a time when rock ‘n’ roll had become safe and sanitized. MTV initially refused to play their music, and it took over a year for\u00a0Appetite\u00a0for Destruction<\/em> to finally reach No. 1. After it did, the only thing that could hold back Guns N’ Roses was themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n
