Guns N' Roses

An explosive debut, two albums that can be summed up as "half sensational, half pointless," and then nothing. As has been said, 90% of those who start listening to rock/hard rock end up listening to them. From here, either you are mature enough to understand that there is objectively better music out there, or you are ignorant and label them as the best hard rock band. An, to those who claimed they were the only badass, non-permed band, albums like Back in Black and Wheels of Steel were released in the '80s, just to name a couple.
