Guns N' Roses is an American hard rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1985 by members of Hollywood Rose and L.A. Guns. The band has released six studio albums, two live albums, two compilation albums, two extended plays, seven video albums, 18 singles, 24 music videos, and one video single. Guns N' Roses signed a deal with Geffen Records in 1986, after the independently released EP Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide a year before. Their debut studio album, Appetite for Destruction, was released in 1987, reached the top of the Billboard 200 and sold 18 million units in the United States and approximately 33 million units worldwide.
The next album, G N' R Lies, included the four Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide tracks on one side and four acoustic songs on the other. In 1990, Guns N' Roses returned to the studio and recorded a double album. Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II were released simultaneously in 1991 and debuted on the two highest spots on the Billboard 200 with Use Your Illusion II leading the chart. In 1993, the band released "The Spaghetti Incident?", an album of punk rock covers. Following that, internal conflicts within the band led to most of the band members being fired or leaving, with Axl Rose and Dizzy Reed remaining the sole members from Use Your Illusion era. The sixth studio album, Chinese Democracy was released in 2008 after several delays and multiple band lineups.
Guns N' Roses is one of the world's best-selling bands of all time, having sold more than 100 million records worldwide, including shipments of 45 million in the United States. Additionally, their Not In This Lifetime... Tour is the fourth highest-grossing concert tour of all-time.
