Appetite for Destruction, Qui Bénéficiera Le 29 Juin D’Une Réédition De Fort Belle Facture TOUJOURS FAIM DE DESTRUCTION C’est un groupe à l’histoire des plus mouvementées du rock’n’roll. Mais malgré les petites histoires internes, les brouilles et les réconciliations, et quelques problèmes bien plus graves, il y a un constat à faire : les Guns N’ Roses sont toujours là, et semblent plus solides que jamais ! Retour sur plus de trente ans de légende, marqués entre autre par l’album Appetite for Destruction, qui bénéficiera le 29 juin d’une réédition de fort belle facture.

Carton total. Trente millions de copies vendues. Des classiques à la pelle. « Welcome to the Jungle », « Para- dise City », « Sweet Child o’ Mine », ils sont tous là. Mais avec le succès débarquent des responsabilités, que le groupe n’est pas vraiment capable d’assumer. La drogue, déjà omniprésente, délite des Guns qui publient des albums inégaux et qui n’atteindront jamais le succès d’Appetite for Destruction, jusqu’à l’album de reprises The Spaghetti Inci- dent? en 1993. Las, Slash aura quitté le groupe avant la sortie de l’album, après un concert à Buenos Aires. Duff McKagan fera de même quelques années plus tard, tandis qu’Izzy Strad- lin et Steven Adler s’étaient déjà fait la malle, respectivement en 1991 et 1990. Axl Rose reste donc seul maître à bord pour mener à bien Chinese Democracy, arlésienne – presque légende urbaine – de la musique, sur laquelle il travaillera pendant quinze ans. L’album, le plus cher jamais enregistré (on parle de la somme rondelette de treize millions de dollars) paraîtra quinze ans jour pour jour après The Spaghetti Incident?, avec un accueil somme toute assez mitigé, mais des louanges de la part de Slash et McKagan. C’est en 2016 que l’on retrouve justement les deux larrons, lorsqu’ils annoncent en grande pompe aux côtés d’Axl Rose leur grand retour au sein du groupe pour une tournée intitulée Not in this lifetime, en référence à la réponse qu’avait donnée Axl Rose en 2012 à un journaliste qui lui demandait si une re- formation du groupe pouvait avoir lieu. Depuis, tout n’est que louange : le groupe semble plus efficace que jamais, et Axl Rose tenir la baraque comme personne. Après un premier passage au Stade de France en juillet 2017, les Guns seront cette année de passage au Download Festi- val mais aussi au stade Matmut-Atlantique de Bordeaux, qui deviendront le temps d’un concert des « Paradise cities » en puissance ! APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION LA RÉÉDITION ULTIME ! Le coffret « Appetite For Destruction: Locked N’ Loaded Edition » (limité à 10 000 pièces) est le saint Graal pour tous les fans ultimes de Guns N’Roses : il comprend l’édi- tion Super Deluxe 4CD + Blu-Ray audio, 7 maxi singles, 7 45 tours en vinyle jaune, 12 lithographie illustrant chaque chanson de l’album, 5 bagues des crânes des membres du groupe en métal faite à la main, 5 pins des crânes des membres du groupe, 5 médiators, une feutrine pour pla- tine vinyle et des posters, le tout pour la modique somme de 999,99 euros ! Pour les bourses les plus modestes, l’édition « Super Deluxe » (159,99 €) vaut elle aussi son pesant de cacahuètes, tandis que les simples audiophiles se tourneront davantage vers les versions double vinyle remasterisé (avec un hologramme du logo GNR sur la face 4) ou les éditions CD remasterisées, en édition simple ou deluxe.

Wright State University (WSU) used Juneteenth this year to acknowledge the actions that still need to be taken and to share the dedication of staff, faculty and students to fight injustice and move toward a more inclusive campus.

    CALIFORNIAN BANDS: Music is their lives By Marie & Mélisande The Doors The Doors is an American rock band formed in July 1965 in Los Angeles, California and disbanded in 1973, two years after the death of singer Jim Morrison. Despite a rather short existence, The Doors is one of the most influential groups in rock history, and his music has influenced many artists. Affiliated with the psychedelic rock scene, the group distinguished by a protean music borrowing from both blues, funk, jazz but also to flamenco. It is influenced by art and poetry. A cult band The Doors. Guns N' Roses: Guns N 'Roses is an American Hard Rock band formed in 1985 in Los Angeles. Led by singer Axl Rose, it became a very few years one of hard rock's most popular, with over 100 million albums sold worldwide, including 43.5 million in the U.S. The group born from the merger of three members of the group LA Guns (the lead guitarist Tracii Guns, bassist Ole Beiche and drummer Rob Gardner) with 2 members of Hollywood Rose (singer Axl Rose and rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin), so the name Guns N 'Roses.

They were ugly, misogynistic, and violent; they were also funny, vulnerable, Guns n Rose occasionally sensitive, as their breakthrough hit, "Sweet Child O' Mine," showed. While Slash and Izzy Stradlin ferociously spit out dueling guitar riffs worthy of Aerosmith or the StonesAxl Rose screeched out his tales of sex, drugs, and apathy in the big city. Meanwhile, bassist Duff McKagan and drummer Steven Adler were a limber Guns n Rose section who kept the music loose and powerful. Guns N' Roses' music was basic and gritty, with a solid, hard, bluesy base; they were dark, sleazy, dirty, and honest -- everything that good hard rock and heavy metal should be. There was something refreshing about a band that could provoke everything from devotion to hatred, especially since both sides were equally right. There hadn't been a hard rock band this raw or talented in Guns n Rose, and they were given added weight by Rose 's primal rage, the sound of confused, frustrated white trash vying for a piece of the pie. As the '80s became the '90s, there simply wasn't a more interesting band around, but owing to intra-band friction and the Guns n Rose of alternative rock, Rose 's supporting cast eventually left, and he spent over 15 years recording before the long-delayed Chinese Democracy appeared in Guns N' Roses released their first EP inwhich led to a contract with Geffen ; the following year, the band released its debut album, Appetite for Destruction.

  • Guns N' Roses Opeens Tot De Mogelijkheden Behoorde
    Appetite For Destruction SPECIAL GUNS N’ ROSES APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION GUNS N’ ROSES APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION Met de fantastische heruitgave van Appetite For Destruction van Guns N’ Roses herleeft voor even de melancholie dat er reikhalzend naar een release werd uitgekeken. We schrijven 1987: De cd leek zijn oneindige intrede te doen en het vinyl was ten dode opgeschreven. Het internet was vooralsnog iets van de toekomst en alleen in zijn meest rudimentaire vorm aanwezig.Tsja. In retrospectief was Appetite For Destruction de opmaat voor de megastatus die Guns ‘N Roses in een effectieve periode van zes jaar zou behalen. De hamvraag waarom Guns ‘N Roses de grootste rockband aller tijden werd en een miljoen andere bands niet, is interessant. Rebellerende rockbands met geweldige muziek, trendsettende gitaristen en getalenteerde, excentrieke zangers met een kort lontje en gedragsproblemen, waren er al vanaf de jaren zestig, dus nogmaals: Waarom Rose en zijn gevolg? De band had in zijn eigen tijdvak voldoende concurrentie van Motley Crue, Poison, W.A.S.P., Ratt, Judas Priest en Iron Maiden, maar uiteindelijk werd Guns ‘N Roses de meest bekende en tot de verbeelding sprekende. Hun t-shirts hangen om de schouders van jongens en meisjes die veelal geen idee hebben van de essentie van de naam. Guns ‘N Roses is een merk. Ik heb lang gezocht naar het antwoord en het uiteindelijk gevonden in het jaar 1984, toen de bands Hollywood Rose (met Axl Rose) en Black Sheep (met Saul Hudson (Slash)) gezamenlijk in het voorprogramma speelden van de christelijke heavy metal band Stryper. Na de show maakten Rose en Slash kennis met elkaar en werden vrienden.
