Negative Positive
Title: One of the Best Albums Ever
Review: Plain and simple--this is one of the best rock albums (and debuts) of all time. The rock magazines touted GNR as stars before "Appetite" even hit the shelves, even though it took over a year after the album's release for that to become reality. When it did hit, GNR were bigger than anyone could have dreamed, but their incredible first album justified it.The sound was clearly Aerosmith-derived with a slightly punk edge, but it was extremely fresh, brilliantly written, and it seemed the future of rock was in front of us. Axl's aggression was the edge that they needed to put them over the top somehow. Almost every song is a highlight (only filler is arguably "Anything Goes") and I can't say enough about this wonderful breakthrough album. Sadly, they never came close to reaching this level of achievement again.
Is the review positive or negative?
