Civil War , 14 Years , Knockin' On Heaven's Door , Estranged , You Could Be Mine , Don't Cry 등등.... 좋은 곡들이 너무나 많이 수록되어 있고 나머지 수록곡들도 평균 이상의 퀄리티를 보여주는 앨범인거 같다. 보통 앨범을 들을때는 본인이 좋아하는 곡을 듣기 위해 다른 트랙은 스킵을 하는 종종 경우가 있는데 이 앨범은 그럴 필요가 전혀 없다.
건즈앤로지스가 절정의 기량과 절정의 인기를 누리던 시절이 딱 이때까지 인거 같아서 지금의 행보는 좀 아쉽지만... 이런 앨범을 발표했었다는 사실만으로도 이들이 지금까지도 락 리스너들에게 많이 회자되고 건즈라는 밴드의 네임벨류도 높아진게 아닌가 싶다.
글렘 메탈을 듣기 시작한 사람이 있다면 필청해야 할 음반이라고 말하고 싶다.

Album of the day #3. Guns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction
Guns N' Roses' "Appetite for Destruction" is an iconic debut album that combines hard rock, punk and glam metal in an original way. Axl Rose's voice and the band's energetic playing create a unique atmosphere that conveys the danger and rebellion of 80s Los Angeles. Songs like "Welcome to the Jungle", "Sweet Chil... Read More
