The author of New York Times bestsellers presents the complete biography of the last great rock band – from the drug-fuelled first steps in the music world of the eighties to an analysis of the turbulent life of the vocalist Axl Rose and his fifteen-year struggle to create the perfect hard rock record.
With 90 million records sold worldwide since 1987, Guns N’ Roses prolonged the life of hard rock with controversial albums and monstrous concert tours around the world. Nobody had told the complete story of this extraordinary band – until now. In his sixth rock biography, Stephen Davis relates the details of the fascinating story of a band that rose from the gutter of the Sunset Strip only to break attendance records in the world's biggest stadiums before long.
This biography relates the life of each member of the band, including the unbelievable events experienced by W. Axl Rose, the biggest rock star of that generation. Fleeing the police in his home town, Axl arrived in Los Angeles, landing in the middle of a street fight for dominance of the music scene by genres such as post-punk, thrash metal, hair metal and glam. In 1988 Guns N’ Roses' record Appetite For Destruction reached number 1 on the Billboard chart, turning the neglected culture of the Sunset Strip into the heart of the most popular and most exciting music of the time. Davis unerringly captures the moment when the original, raw power of Guns N’ Roses was taking shape, which – despite accusations of rape, drug-fuelled madness and an unstoppable appetite for destruction – placed the band in the pantheon of rock celebrities. He tells the extraordinary story of the Sunset Strip, stressing the influence of the local scene on the whole of American culture. Based on detailed interviews and private archive materials, the book is full of interesting, surprising, often funny stories. It is a sharp, blunt, complete, true and unauthorised biography. For the first time millions of fans have the chance to learn the whole truth about this legendary band.
STEPHEN DAVIS is one of the leading American rock journalists. His previous biographies include the book Jim Morrison: Życie, Śmierć, Legenda, the bestselling Aerosmith autobiography Walk This Way and the Led Zeppelin saga Młot Bogów. 408 pages + 2 inserts with photographs, hardback.
