response: I wouldn't know. That said, their debut album reached number one, as did their single Sweet Child 'o Mine.
original_response: I think it was drugs but what do you expect from a rock band from the 80's, right. lol Their most successful album was ''Appetite for destruction'' in 1987 which debuted their most famous song ''Sweet child o'mine''. A great song!
history: I just recently started listening to Guns N' Roses. Oh, neat! They're from LA and formed in 1985. All the great bands come from LA. Is the band still together today? I don't have that information here right now, but their original lineup was Axl Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan, and Steven Adler. Which one of them is the lead vocalist? I haven't got a clue, but the band has sold 100 million records over 6 albums. That's an incredible feat! Has the band ever been involved in any controversy?
knowledge: Guns N' Roses' debut album, ''Appetite for Destruction'' (1987), reached number one on the ''Billboard'' 200 a year after its release, on the strength of ''Sweet Child o' Mine'', the band's only single to reach number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100.
