They were good enough to be my gateway into rock music.

Random memory: I remember when I first discovered them, I was so obsessed with them, that when I first started playing guitar, my guitar teacher asked me to burn a CD of songs I wanted to learn, and 13/18 of them were Guns 'N Roses songs. He couldn't stop laughing.

I sure can (trying to skip the songs everyone knows, straight for the hidden gems)



(First of all, the lyrics were misunderstood, and I don't agree with the often assumed meaning)




(I had to put this one last, it's really meant to be a closer)

So, still think they suck, Downwardspiral?

GnR were totally a gateway band for me, I got into them when I was like 12/13 and they were one of the first rock bands I got into because I grew up on country music and I got pretty sick of that.

While my tastes have evolved a good deal in the past decade they're still one of those gateway bands who I enjoy listening to today. I can still appreciate simple, bluesy rock n roll and GnR were one of the best bands in that category.

I do like that they branched out more with the UYI albums which I think are very underated. I honestly think there's only a few duffers on each one but there are songs that are definitely among the best work they have done.

The first one is chalk full of filler to me, as awesome as the highlights are (November Rain, Coma, Dust 'N Bones, **** yeah!), but UYI2 is AWESOME. Possibly better than AFD.

Nice picks! "14 Years" and "Rocket Queen" are two of my absolute favorite GnR songs.

I'm not that crazy about UYI-1 except for a couple songs, but UYI-2 is definitely equal to Appetite IMHO.
