Released in 2007 Slash's autobiography was highly anticipated as it was the first ever book from a band member to be released. It worked as both rock memoir and first hand account of the band's history. Slash aimed to set the record straight at the time regarding the demise of GN'R. Did it get us any  closer to understanding the man beneath the top hat? All these years later how does it stack up against the other member's books? We discuss.

A retrospective conversation to end the year. The 2023 tour, Lighthouse, The Monster & General leaks, the trivial, the humerous and those ugly lawsuits that emerged late in the year. 

The cracks had been appearing as far back as 1989 within the band. The next few years would see the band lose it's founding members and begin a long period of power struggles and cold relations. It would ultimately result in  finger pointing in the media for many years afterwards.  It was a dark era for Guns N'Roses and one in which it seemed like a resolution would never emerge. 

We delve deep into this fascinating period of the bands history.

Quick hit reaction to 'The General' finally getting it's official release.

1988 saw the release of GN'R lies, a record comprising the 1986 'Live like a Suicide' tracks alongside a batch of brand new acoustic tracks recorded over one weekend.  The EP contained one of Guns most popular songs 'Patience' and it's most controversial number 'One in a Million'.  On it's 35th annivesary we discuss the story of the EP and the firestorm which surrounded it.

Guns N' Roses got the opportunity of a liftetime in 1989 to open 4 shows in LA for the Rolling Stones. Guns were going through an extremely turbulent time and the shows where filled with drama. The gig's almost ended Guns N'Roses. We look at the influence of the Stones on GN'R, the Colliseum gigs, that magical peformance of 'Salt of the Earth' on pay per view in Atlantic city and of course the 1994 GN'R cover of 'Sympathy for The Devil'.

Released in 2011 Duff McKagan's 'It's So Easy & other lies' is perhap's the best read of all the GN'R related books out there.  It's an amazing comeback story from the depths of addiction. It offer's a very insightful look into GN'R's rise to fame followed by the band's collapse. Written at a time when he had eventually mended fences with Axl Rose it's both an inspiring tale and a frightenignly cautious one. We chat about why we thought it was the best of the bunch.

Duff is back with a new album and we react.

Guns latest single 'The General' was slated to be released October 27th and has now been delayed unitl December. We discuss the track's delay and the reported leak 'The General & Monster's.

We get into why this is the best album of the 1980's. We talk about the people and places who inspired the record and why it's still the greatest hard rock album ever.
