As the sales of the legendary Appetite For Destruction approach the 20 million copies in the United States, who remembers today that it almost never saw the light of day? This is almost as a kindness that David Geffen had accepted to welcome this homeless band on his label. He would not regret his altruism…. Around thirty years ago, Seattle became the epicenter of the rock scene, largely thanks to grunge music.
Perhaps too quickly embraced by the very system it rebuffed, it almost became a caricature of itself by the end of the s. Throughout a career stretching over 50 years, there is an evident streak of schizophrenia in his many stylistic changes.
While we credit him with the invention of shock rock, he has ventured into almost every genre with varying degrees of success, from pop to nascent hard rock, with forays into heavy metal, new wave and industrial…. Categories: All Back.

The double-disc Live: Era ''93 was designed to do two things -- satiate die-hard fans longing for old-school GNR, while clearing decks for a new studio album.
It sounds good in theory, yet it suffers in its execution, since it relies on tapes "recorded across the universe between and Live: Era ''93 offers the polar opposite with slick, professional tracks that sound pieced together from various performances.
Axl's vocals are not only distant -- as though they were sung in a booth, separate from the band -- but also amazingly mannered, sounding for all the world as if they were redone in the studio.
