L.A. Guns

L.A. Guns is a rock band from Los Angeles, California which came to prominence in the 1980s.

Music and image

The music of L.A. Guns is frequently associated with the L.A. hair metal scene which grew up around the Sunset Strip in the 1980s. The band was, however, also related to the "trash metal" genre, of which Guns 'N Roses (which once had 3 of the original L.A. Guns members) was the most prominent exponent, generally preferring an anti-social, white trash image to elaborate make-up and costumes. The music and image of L.A. Guns is often referred to as "sleaze".
