Aerosmith

Aerosmith is an American rock band formed in Boston in 1970. The group consists of Steven Tyler (lead vocals), Joe Perry (guitar), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums) and Brad Whitford (guitar). Their style, which is rooted in blues-based hard rock, has also incorporated elements of pop rock, heavy metal, glam metal, and rhythm and blues, and has inspired many subsequent rock artists. They are sometimes referred to as "the Bad Boys from Boston" and "America's Greatest Rock and Roll Band". The primary songwriting team of Tyler and Perry is often known as the "Toxic Twins".

Perry and Hamilton, originally in a band together called the Jam Band, met up with Tyler, Kramer, and guitarist Ray Tabano, and formed Aerosmith; in 1971, Tabano was replaced by Whitford. They released a string of multi-platinum albums starting with their eponymous debut in 1973, followed by Get Your Wings in 1974. The band broke into the mainstream with Toys in the Attic (1975) and Rocks (1976). Draw the Line and Night in the Ruts followed in 1977 and 1979. Throughout the 1970s, the band toured extensively and charted a dozen Hot 100 singles, including their first Top 40 hit "Sweet Emotion" and the Top 10 hits "Dream On" and "Walk This Way". By the end of the decade, they were among the most popular hard rock bands in the world and developed a following of fans, often referred to as the "Blue Army". Drug addiction and internal conflict led to the departures of Perry and Whitford in 1979 and 1981. The band did not fare well and the album Rock in a Hard Place (1982) failed to match previous successes.

Guns N' Roses

Guns N' Roses is an American hard rock band from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1985. When they signed to Geffen Records in 1986, the band comprised vocalist Axl Rose, lead guitarist Slash, rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin, bassist Duff McKagan, and drummer Steven Adler. The current lineup consists of Rose, Slash, McKagan, guitarist Richard Fortus, drummer Frank Ferrer and keyboardists Dizzy Reed and Melissa Reese.

Guns N' Roses' debut album, Appetite for Destruction (1987), reached number one on the Billboard 200 a year after its release, on the strength of the top 10 singles "Welcome to the Jungle", "Paradise City", and "Sweet Child o' Mine", the band's only single to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The album has sold approximately 30 million copies worldwide, including 18 million units in the United States, making it the country's bestselling debut album and eleventh-bestselling album. Their next studio album, G N' R Lies (1988), reached number two on the Billboard 200, sold ten million copies worldwide (including five million in the U.S.), and included the top 5 hit "Patience". Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II, recorded simultaneously and released in 1991, debuted at number two and number one on the Billboard 200 respectively and have sold a combined 35 million copies worldwide (including 14 million units in the U.S.). The Illusion albums included the lead single "You Could Be Mine", covers of "Live and Let Die" and "Knockin' on Heaven's Door", and a trilogy of ballads ("Don't Cry", "November Rain", and "Estranged"), which featured notably high-budget music videos. The records were supported by the Use Your Illusion Tour, a world tour that lasted from 1991 to 1993. The covers album "The Spaghetti Incident?" (1993) was the last studio album to feature Slash and McKagan before their initial departure.

Exodus je američki treš metal bend osnovan u Ričmondu u Kaliforniji 1979. godine. Ovaj bend prate brojne promene sastava grupe, dve prolongirane pauze, i smrt dvojice tadašnjih članova benda. Trenutni sastav benda čine gitariste Geri Holt i Li Altus, basista Džek Gibson, bubnjar Tom Hanting, i glavni vokalista Stiv „Zitro“ Suza. Hanting je jedan od originalnih članova grupe. Izašao je iz Exodus-a čak dva puta, jednom 1989. a drugi put 2004, no vratio se 2007. godine. Holt se pridružio bendu dve godine nakon osnivanja, i jedini je član Exodus-a koji se pojavljuje u svim izdanjima.

Od svog osnivanja pa do današnjeg dana, Exodus je izbacio deset studijskih albuma, dva lajv albuma,jednu kompilaciju albuma, i jedno ponovno snimanje prvog albuma. Zajedno sa grupama kao što su Metallica (čiji je dugogodišnji glavni gitarista Kirk Hamet bio jedan od originalnih članova Exodus-a), Possessed, Testament, Death Angel, Vio-Lence, Forbidden i Lȧȧz Rockit, predstavljaju pionire treš metal scene; i prodali su preko pet miliona albuma širom sveta. Exodus je na vrhuncu svoje karijere bio sredinom osamdesetih godina prošlog veka, kada je bend izbacio tri studijska albuma― „Bonded by Blood“ 1985, „Pleasures of the Flesh“ 1987, i „Fabulous Disaster“ 1989. godine. Album „Fabulous Disaster“ dobio je izvanredne kritike od velikih izdavača, uključujući Capitol Records, sa kojim su sarađivali 1989. godine. Nakon toga, bend izbacuje još dva studijska albuma, naime „Impact Is Imminent“ 1990. i „Force of Habit“ 1992. godine. Nakon ovolikog uspeha, bend se raspušta 1994.godine. Ponovo se ujedinjuju 2001, a pre toga povremeno nastupaju zajedno od 1997. do 1998. godine. Od ponovnog ujedinjenja 2001. godine, Exodus izbacuje još pet studijskih albuma, od kojih je najskorije izašao „Blood In, Blood Out“ 2014. godine. Bend trenutno radi na još jednom albumu, koji bi trebalo da izađe krajem 2019. ili početkom 2020. godine.
