 Appetite For Destruction
 The Spaghetti Incident?
The correct answer is 'Appetite For Destruction'
Released in 1987, "Appetite For Destuction" is the epitome of what rock was about in the 80's. Booze, drugs, and sex is the theme for this album. I would love to see what music the band could have made if they had stayed together, but too many ego clashes put a wedge between Axl and the rest of the band. I have heard that the remaining members of the band are to record an album with Scott Weiland of The Stone Temple Pilots. That should be interesting, to say the least.
