G N' R Lies

Of course, it was driven by standards like Paradise City, Sweet Child of Mine, and Welcome to the Jungle.

Then their 1988 follow-up, GNR Lies, kept the momentum going five times platinum in the States.

By 1990, Guns N' Roses were sitting on top of the rock world.

They were filling stadiums, they were dominating pop culture, and they were creating enough chaotic headlines to rival the notoriety of their music.

But anyway, with all the monsters of the week from the X-Files.

Geffen wanted a follow up.

To appetite for destruction.

That came and went.

Nothing happened.

They stayed on the road for 26 months, and only GNR Lies came out, which did sell 10 million.

I mean, 10 million is nothing to sneeze at for a second record.
