Advantages: The band at their finest

Disadvantages: You wont listen to much else

When I was 11, I used to listen to the charts on the radio on sunday nights, and one evening, heard enter sandman by Metallica, I loved the sound of the distorted guitar, and set out the next weekend to find something that rocked. Before the weekend I saw Top Of The Pops and on it was the video for You Could Be Mine by GnR, the sound was not quite as distorted but suited me more than the chugging riffs of enter sandman, I headed off into town on the saturday to pick up the single. All I could find in the shop (for the money i had) was an album I had not heard of, Appetite For Destruction, so I took a chance and stumped up the cash. After getting home, five minutes in I was hooked! Welcome to the jungle blew me away, Slash's hardcore riffs rip sawing between single nots and power chords, while izzy funked up the rhythm parts in a bluesy manner. All off this was sandwiched at the back end by duff's chorus heavy bass and steven adler's punk drumming and fronted by axl rose's wailing rock scream, it is an album that still sounds fresh today with particular highlights being mr brownstone, the epic paradise city, the truly horrible (in a good way!) my michelle and ending with the stripper loving rocket queen. If you own one of their records, it HAS to be this one!!!!

Summary: Get it, now
