As they play Spurs’ stadium twice this weekend, we rate the best of the swaggering rock gods, from epic balladry to high-speed juggernauts
Recorded in 1986 and released a year later, this speed metal gem was released as the B-side of the 12in version of It’s So Easy/Mr Brownstone before being lost to antiquity for 31 years. When it resurfaced in 2018, it was still every bit the raspy-voiced hellraiser of yore. The incomprehensible rants, barked hook and ear-splitting solo all make this a slice of classic GnR.
On Appetite for Destruction, GnR were hard-drinking heartbreakers specialising in naught but sordid rock music. Not even 18 months later, they released GnR Lies, where Patience exposed their tender side. Acoustic guitars? Whistling? Whispered singing?! It may not be bad-boy behaviour, but it sure is good, adding a new wrinkle to the band’s repertoire that would grow through the titanic Use Your Illusion albums.Use Your Illusion II is defined by excess, and Estranged is its most excessive moment.
