VIDEO: Guns N’ Roses unbox expanded Appetite For Destruction reissues



Guns N’ Roses are streaming unboxing videos for the multiple expanded reissues of their 1987 album debut, “Appetite For Destruction”, ahead of their release on June 29.

Fans can preview full details on both the box set and Super Deluxe editions of the project, which remains the biggest-selling debut album of all time with more than 30 million copies sold worldwide three decades after its debut.

The 4CD/7LP “Appetite For Destruction: Locked N' Loaded” box set will feature 73 total songs including 49 previously unreleased tunes while presenting a remastered version of the original record (presented across 2LPs) and a Blu-ray audio disc with new 5.1 surround sound mixes alongside the band’s 1986 EP "Live ?!*@ Like A Suicide", a second EP containing B-sides from the era, 25 previously unreleased recordings from the band's 1986 sessions at Sound City studios, and two previously unreleased tracks from their recording sessions with producer Mike Clink.

The expanded package also includes a 96-page handbound book with unreleased photos from Axl Rose's personal archive, 12 new illustration lithos visualizing each song from the album, seven 7” singles and replica band memorabilia from the era.

A 4CD/1Blu-ray Super Deluxe Edition also includes the 96-page book featuring unreleased photos from Axl Rose's personal archive; a Deluxe Edition will be available as a two-CD set or as a double LP pressed on 180-gram vinyl, as will a single CD version featuring the remastered album.

“Appetite For Destruction” delivered three US Top 10 singles: “Welcome To The Jungle”, “Paradise City” and their first and only US No. 1 hit, “Sweet Child o’ Mine.”

The band have been previewing the 2018 reissue with a lyric video for “Shadow Of Your Love”, a previously-unreleased clip for “It’s So Easy”, and audio of a previously-unheard 1988 acoustic version of “Move To The City" from the “GN’R Lies” sessions.

Guns N’ Roses are currently playing dates on a European tour that will end next month, following which the group will next be seen performing across Asia and other locales this November.
