Not a bad observation! Spot on!!! That's why they formed like Voltron and took over the world. The line-up of "Appetite For Destruction" was the PERFECT line up for that album. "Use Your Illusion I & II" are GREAT albums, Matt Sorum was great. Honestly, I don't know it Adler's drums would have fit in on UYI. Such a shame Izzy and GNR parted after that. Izzy sang and wrote some of my favorite tracks on that double album.
Man, that was extremely well described.
Guns N Roses scared everyone when Appetite For Destruction came out in 1987. It's raw fusion of blues, punk, thrash, funk, and hard rock formed a sound that shook glam to it's core. Honest lyrics about child abuse, drugs, poverty, excess, and other issues people identified with. This cd stands the test of time and kicked open the doors for the industrial/grunge/modern rock explosion that would follow in the 90s
Absolutely
Not a CD, an LP
@@tigusvidiks728 Or like me a cassette for car and LP for neighbours.
Greatest rock album of all time. But it didn't open the doors to anything. It was the last screaming climax of rock and roll. And then you're right, the 90's happened. Then the oughts, then the tweens and teens and we're still waiting for someone to reach let alone surpass Appetite for Destruction.
There's a few songs I can remember the 1st time I heard them. Welcome to the Jungle was so mind-blowing, I was at a party and stopped to watch the video on MTV. Bought the album soon after and played it's so easy, mr. brownstone, my michelle, out to get me, rocket queen over and over. Everyone had that album. Had high hopes for Use Your Illusion but it couldn't come close to Appetite.
it was the savior of rock n roll for that time. It brought back the hard core riffs and dirty, grimy blues driven rock that was so missing for years. The album was gritty and raw. We needed it.
Yes, Electric by The Cult is a great album.
Might be an old comment but this album in my opinion is a lot more impactful than nirvanas album in 1991.
@@metalrockstarizer89Appetite was Impactful to musicians, Nevermind was Impactful to teens
I remember buying the cassette at a local music store, I was 12, I had to make copies as I knew my parents would freak out, this was after all the 80s in South Africa. My parents found and destroyed my copies 😂, but I had my original. Then in June of 2017 my dream came true, flew to London to see them live.
I have never seen them live :/ I was too little when they came to İstanbul in early 2000s and 2010s
I was a senior in high school in March '88 and my best friend kept telling me about this new cassette where the singer was going "fuck this and fuck that" and of course I was intrigued by that LOL --- I bought Appetite but kinda wasn't into it at first, but after a dozen or so listens it grew on me --- and by June when I graduated I was hardcore into the album and played it three or four times a day while cruising around town looking for chicks before I headed off to college
Hands Down My Favorite Album Ever By any Band. Happy B Day GNR
Me too! It’s the best album ever made, in my opinion
You guys need some 60s and 70s rock in your life
Speed Cola yea like pink floyd or some other depressing shite
Same man
I got a brand new 'Sony' Walkman & ‘Appetite for Destruction’, in Maine, on a family trip.
By the time we drove home, I had _burned out the motor_ of my _new_ Sony walkman.
BUT, I knew every single word of that album. (and I still love it, to this very day).
I was 10, it 1987 AND it was the best family vacation _EVER!_
Kids at these times will never know that feeling and that sucks.
@@iwantabikenow3773 I'm 14 and I wish so bad that I could experience the 80s. Guns N' Roses is my favorite band. I can't stand all this mumble rap and pop music that we have today.
Same for me except I was 11! We drove 8 hrs from Georgia to Daytona Beach Florida and I listened to GnR all the way there, the entire time I was there, and all the way home.

Rubbish! No one bought that album in 1987! Especially young girls!
Absolute BEST Hard Rock Album EVER.
happy birthday appetite for destruction
Dominick guitar does that make us old lol
I listened to the album 18 years after its release and it instantly got me into rock music. I wasn't even born when the album came out, yet I consider this the greatest album of all times. I didn't even know that the band I was listening to had already broke up. After they re-united in 2016, I started listening to their stuffs again and I hope they record an album. Happy birthday Appetite of Destruction, great masterpiece of an album.
We used to cruise around town doing nothing but listening to that tape. I remember thinking Finally someone made the total ass-kicking album I wanted, non-stop metal riffs and power chords.

Appetite for Destruction saved Rock n Roll.
This album changed my life.
The editor is legend, putting Chad and Corey side by side😂
Appetite... was the embodiment of hard rock sound - still is...
Absolutely unforgettable album. The world belonged to them. I'll be a Gunner forever ❤
Looking back, the change from hair metal to grunge wasn't as sudden as popular culture says it is. Because even at its height the message of let's party of the hair metal scene was already changing into "Party's over."
And that change went overground with "Appetite for destruction" because although, an LA band and affiliated with hair Metal, Guns N Roses surely weren't singing about the typical hair metal topics. No songs about how many girls they fucked and how big their dicks were.
Their album was about poverty ("Paradise city", "Welcome to the Jungle"), the wrong kind of women ( "Rocket Queen", "You're crazy", Sweet Child o' mine) being stuck in addictions ( "Mr. Brownstone", "Night train") resulting in a very dark album, a primal scream for help.
And people latched onto that, finally something real, something they could identify with. And in it's wake all kinds of albums came out which tapped into that raw nerve that was laid bare.
- "Disintegration" by the Cure
- "Uplift Mofo Party Plan" and "Mother's Milk" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers
- "It takes a nation" by Public enemy
- The seminal albums by the Pixies.
- "Vivid" and "Time's up" by Living colour
- "Nothing shocking" and "Ritual de habitual" by Jane's addiction
- "And Justice for all" by Metallica
- "Cowboys from hell" by Pantera.
- "Document" by REM
Look up the album charts from 1987 to 1990 and you shall see the point, all of those albums were million sellers and this was BEFORE Nirvana's "Nevermind" had even been recorded.
For almost four years, the music had already been changing, it was just so gradual that people didn't take notice and when Nirvana emerged, people went "Whoa! Revolution" but the real revolution started when Axl Rose first screamed the words "You know where you are? You're in the jungle baby, you're gonna die!"
Finally someone says it! Guns N Roses started a rock revolution! And people don’t give them credit for some reason.
Every party I went to during 87/88 was either Cranking GNR Appetite for Destruction or the first self titled L.A Guns in Kansas City MO area I remember ..
Nothing beats this album for me. Absolutely nothing.
They were the Best Rock band ever. Forever Iconic. Axl's voice was like no other.
My favorite band of all time 🤘🔥❤️
"Appetite for Destruction" Icon, the amazing Rock Album. 🤘🤘🤘
Remember GNR started out glam. They wore makeup and used hair spray. Check out all the early photos. I still have many of the local papers from L.A. before GNR got big.
Wyatt Sexton that was only Axl
Their music was never glam though!
They were in that scene, but their music did not really fit with the others.
Criminally little about Izzy Stradlin, and he's the soul of the band. Also playing a role was the ease of Steve's drums and Duff's punk tendencies.
Who told you Izzy was the soul of the band?? That’s ridiculous! He left early on and was t part of the band for there main moment
Not fair. My parents got welcome to the jungle and i got swala la la .
You just didnt get the point mate...
The fact is...Music nowdays suck. Just my opinion. I miss the classic rock period. When songs had 0% porn 0% violence and 100% talent and guitar solos. That groove of drums. All this is missing from those shitty rap songs
That's what my son says to me. He says it's not fair dad, you got to grow up with bands like GnR and I got dumb ass Bieber!
Rohan Mahendru They literally said that used porn for the album.....
Rohan Mahendru Oh please grow up. I'm a huge Guns fan myself and I'm 21 years old. There's so much good music from different genres these days, including rap. Maybe open up yourself from your insecure bubble and stop with this "I was born in the wrong generation bwaahaa" bs. Guns literally had a shit ton of violence and porn along with talent in their songs. You're being so ignorant and hypocritical.
Nice transition from Chad Kroger to Corey Taylor at 9:34.
Rocked out to it when I was 8. Still listen to it pretty much every week like two decades later
Slash @ 5:38 - "We all had short attention span" ROFL
I wonder why.... :D
Finally an original, well-produced video, not just a lame news story.
GOAT hard rock album. Take the best of Zeppelin, AC/DC, Aerosmith, and the Sex Pistols. Put it all on steroids and you have Appetite.
My gateway to rock and roll
The best rock band of my generation...
APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION JUST MADE THE LIST
bladeryanner you just made my day haha
Genius band... this music from the street not from the school!!! Every song in this album got alive soul... best album ever with best line up of the band...
I guess I'm calling Duff Duffy from now on.
Appetite for Destruction is simply the best debut album in the history of rock n´roll...
The first album I ever bought! And still one of my favourites.
Highest selling debut album ever
kalebpost20 what does "debut" mean? Sorry if its a dumb question
JDL M Not quite sure what the exact definition is but it's like the opening or first showing of something. This was GNR's first album, their debut album. Pronounced dabe-you btw
kalebpost20 ohhh thanks! It makes more sense now
I think it's Greta Van Fleet now, at least maybe in the US
Greta only sold 70,000 for From the Fires, there debut album has only currently sold 200,000, Guns sold 22 million for Appetite
Appetite is the most perfect rock' s album of all the time. Every single song is excellent, over the perfection. Guns and Roses the best rock band in rock history. No doubt about this!
People want to give Axl shit but you do know he's in the top few frontman of all fucking time . At his peak no one had the energy and ferocity on stage no body period
Im a hip hop head and my favorite album ever is Appetite for Destruction!!! Love Guns!!
I remember the street fairs when I was like 13 and all I wanted was to win a gnr bandana. I'm 46 now and I noticed that they still have gnr prizes at the state fair this year. Thats all you need to know about that album. Epic. Timeless. Still rocking the streets.
obviously it starts out with Corey Taylor Lol
lol
Joe Johnson and end with him lol
5 seconds in and like like did this mfer just say "Korn" 😂
something about everytime it's so easy kicks off, just gets me in another world
I think many bands lack the energy, power, and excitement of debut albums like Appetite, Van Halen, the first Aerosmith... I could go on for hours.
Hands down my favorite Guns N’ Roses album. It’s so good
G n r...the best band evaa.....
I am so glad that this is Gun N' Roses 35th anniversary from their undisputed hard rock debut album Appetite For Destruction which is still the greatest album ever recorded.
I love Guns N Roses❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations, Guns N Roses. Congratulations, Appetite For Destruction!!
one of THE greatest Albums in Rock!
That awsome album is twice my age
I liked that video. Best of the week!!!!
Easily one of my favorite bands of all time
Best album ever made.
I don’t have word to describe how fckg good Apetite is, like really from all the tracks its pure hard rock n roll
Happy birthday to my all time favourite album :) Mr. Brownstone is my favourite song off of it!
I can remember to this day. I was on the phone with my girlfriend in middle school. A DJ from the Gainsville, FL rock station played the entire album. I just happened to have a big tape in the recorder. Ironically a couple years later I was living in middle Tennessee. I'd had a crazy antenna that'd pickup the Atlanta rock station and a DJ did the same with the Metallica Black album.
What? Corey Taylor and Nickelback in the same video? This is a conspiracy!!!
My thoughts exactly! Wtf is Nickelback doing here?
@@claudiocastro2297they're rocking like usual 🤘🤘🤘
YES!! They also produced and did another Masterpiece Mechanical resonance from TELSA. Never knew that but two of my all time favorite albums . Both are incredible start to finish.
Thank You Richard
well done loudwire
Best Fu*King Album ever!!! Was in 7th Grade when came out Changed the World!!!
Happy 30th !!! Gun's N Roses. ApPeTiTe FoR dEsTrUcTiOn.
I still remember the taste when it was released. One of my all time list : appetite, 10, III sides, hybrid theory, and wasting light.
1. Appetite for Destruction
2. Use your Illusion 2
3. Use your Illusion 1
4. GnR Lies
5. The Spaghetti Incident?
6. Chinese Democracy
Agustin Jr. Enriquez honestly I think the use your illusions albums are equal to each other.
6. Velvet Revolver albums
7. Chinese Democracy
I'd agree with that, but CD is still pretty great.
Give Chinese a chance, listen to Chinese Democracy, This I love, Better. Those are badass songs, specially Better and This I love.
Chinese democracy sucked big time..
Even watching this video,, all I could see was chester screaming.. RIP Chester... I pray you are rocking out in the heavens with chris
axl lit a fire inside me when i was 13 and the fire is still raging thank you axl!
My dad listened to a lot of GN'R when I was in my mom's womb. So I've always been a HUGE fanatic. It had been my dream to see them live my entire life and I'm so glad that dream came true , also content half the band members got back. What happened with Steven Adler broke my heart but I'm glad Slash is alive even after almost dying and Axl sounds just as good as he used to.
Axl Rose was a great singer, other than the fact he couldn't sing, which is why he kept blowing out his vocal chords. "Appetite for Destruction" is one of the best albums of all time.
if you were young from about 1988 to 90 like i was then these guys had a hold on the music scene..it was over pretty fast but it was big while it lasted.
Adler’s drumming, to this day, is one of the finest rock performances ever. No one, NO ONE, no matter how technically superior, has ever been able to match his feel and groove.
Greatest album ever,. Its funny its also a debut,. How is that possible 😅, just an intense album,. It oozes such charm and grittiness and such words hard to explain
Got my first cd player and appetite for destruction for my 13th birthday in 87 from my parents, still got it.
Favorite album by my favorite band!!!
AXEL with the shuffle ,his hi voice , IT WAS SLASH with the top hat, And the sweet child o mine riff...DUFF with the tall rocker look ,that took heavy bass to another level. .And his acoustic talent on sweet child o mine...STEVEN ,made the drum riffs. He is the drum sound of that band...IZZY what can you say...He brings a band the rhythm steady.. He is in tune when others are not.. EACH BAND MEMBER ADDS SOMETHING THAT MAKES GUNS AND ROSES WHAT THEY ARE !!!!!!!!!
I'll never forget my best friend called me /i stole this album from my older sister's room you got come hear it!!/age 9😀 they still got more street cred than 99% of music industry
Happy birthday Slash! 🎩🎸
love appetite. original guns are the best!!!
Perfect is the only way to describe Appitite For Destruction I cant believe believe 30yrs tho, all my kids have been influenced by every song on that album n what they are listening to today n have thanked me for play the likes of G'n'R while on car journeys ect. Didn't think it would have had such an impact just like it did me at 13yrs of age. What an album N lets face its the best Rock and Roll album of all time. Boooom I said it 🎸✌
I was in grade 7 or 8, was a maiden and Metallica type and my buddy loaned me a cassette that was a copy of appetite before welcome to the jungle was even a video. I honestly didn't care for the first track at all but holy shit once 2ND track it's so easy played I was hooked. Our little metal head group had the scoop on a band that didn't even a video on mtv yet. Then sweet child o mine came out and all the jocks and posers came along with it. Appetite , the raw energy, easily in top 5 albums of the 80's. Reminded me of the sex pistols debut album. Just an assault on the senses. And it was fucking amazing. For some reason every time I get a shower I sing rocket queen lol. No idea why just sounds good until I turn off the water. Then I just hum the song lol
Thanks for this videos!!! Gracias unos videos geniales ;)
Love it!!!!
Adler out band crash , He gave his heart In AFD
First cd I ever bought was Appetite in 1994, I was 11 at the time. It is a perfect album just behind Revolver (2) and the White Album (1). Nevermind is great too, Incesticide... Mellon Collie.
I was in 11th grade and had my mom drive me to Middle Earth records in Downey, CA. We were all going to a family function on a Saturday. Yes, I bought the original album cover. No, I am.no more or less warped after seeing that cover.
I remember thinking it was strange that I would see a couple of the cheerleaders wearing GnR t-shirts down the line. This was razor-edged rock and roll. What are they doing wearing that shirt?
One of those albums ive had to buy about 5 times down the years
I'm glad I got Corey the voice of loudwire Taylor's opinion of the album
What an album the drums, bass and the riffs are unmatched people can call them just a hair band but they were so beyond that great record
Just loved it! Thanks, Loudwire! #Appetite30th
What does Corey Feldman think?
*YO*
Jesus Christ save me
JOSATAN VOCALCOVERS see you in hell
Jesus Christ oh yes
You fuckin liar
Jesus Christ give us back chris and chester
35 years old today!
MYYYYYYYYLEEEEEEESSSSSS 😻😻😻😻😻💕💕💕💕💕💕💕♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You know where you are you are in the Jungle Baby
You're gonna diiiiiiiiiie
I love seeing the collection of the King's books.
Appetite was actually the last studio album I heard from GNR. Still kicked my balls to the floor.
He's been knocking, he won't leave me alone
I love how you put a transition from Chad to Corey at one point of the video :-D Classy move ;-)
they were the real bad boys of rock but the song writing and the riffs is what made them huge and I'll always be a fan!!
Fucking Perfect...says Corey Taylor.
Nice work Jericho! Welcome to the Metal community,Finally!!👅
GREATEST DEBUT ALBUM EVER!!
