Guns N Roses Discography Rankings
I didn’t think I would rank this band’s discography because quite frankly, there’s not much there.
But Guns N Roses has been one of my favorite bands since I was a kid so I have to.
They may not have released much music, but it is important music to me and to a lot of people.
They are as big today as they’ve ever been and that is a wonderful thing.
It’s been a wild ride over the years, but they’re in a great place now with 3/5 the classic lineup of singer Axl Rose, guitarist Slash, and bassist Duff McKagan.
Their debut full length album, Appetite For Destruction, is one of the biggest selling albums of all time and deservedly so.
GNR came out during the so called “Hair Metal” period and really turned the music world upside down and became the biggest rock band in the world for a little while.
But as with many bands, there were problems and breakups along the way.
Some of the members pursued solo careers and/or started other bands or in the case of Axl went into seclusion for many years.
But as I said, they’re in a mostly great place now and are still a stadium/arena act, which is phenomenal.
I wish they would put out a new album (they’ve put a few songs out in the last few years) but either way, GNR are forever etched in rock music history and that’s not a bad thing.

Not the biggest discography, but some classic stuff though.
Also, check out Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy And The Conspirators, Duff McKagan’s Loaded band and Duff’s solo albums. Great stuff. Also check out their books too.
Also Velvet Revolver, featuring Slash, Duff and former GNR drummer Matt Sorum, put out two solid albums.
GNR guitarist Izzy Stradlin has released several solo albums too.
And GNR drummer Steven Adler released an album called Back From The Dead under the moniker Adler and released a good book.
Rock on everyone.
