Welcome to the Videos provides a baker's dozen of Guns 'n' Roses' most explosive and memorable music videos from 1987 to 1993, and what a lesson they provide in the early evolution of visual style on MTV. Looking back, it seems Guns n' Roses embraced almost every type of music-video setting: "Welcome to the Jungle", for instance, finds rapid images of the band's stage performance interspersed with a semi-narrative featuring Axle Rose as a newcomer to the big bad city; "Paradise City" is set against an arena sound check, while "Sweet Child O' Mine" is structured around the now-threadbare idea of a video documentary about a video production. A couple of obsessive themes emerge from this anthology, the starkest involving love and watery deaths ("Don't Cry" and "November Rain"). Most interesting are the opiate-like distortions of "The Garden" and the surreal "Since I Don't Have You", starring Gary Oldman as a grinning devil. --Tom Keogh
He was 20, living in his car and he answered an ad looking for a Bass player, signed by someone called simply ˜Slash'. Soon after, the most dangerous band in the world was born. This is the story of one man's rise to the pinnacle of fame and fortune, his massive crash and burn...and then his phoenix-like return from oblivion. Michael McKagan, better known as Duff, lived the sex, drugs and rock n' roll lifestyle like no other. It eventually caught up with him and nearly killed him. Now for the first time, we get to see what he's done with his second chance at life. Based on the best-selling book, It's So Easy and Other Lies is a searing autobiographical documentary told through a unique book-reading concert performed by Duff and his new band Loaded. Featuring many of the Gunners most iconic songs and exclusive unreleased footage, it's a gut wrenchingly honest, poignant and inspiring journey through the G'N'R legend.
