Layabouts

Layabouts

Layabouts born from the encounter of four young Madrid: Javi, Jon, Robert and Victor, who are joined in October 2005 to form a guitar pop band with a distinct British influence. It begins to run from the beginning and songs come naturally where the protagonist has the vocals and guitar riffs. 

On April 5, 2006, barely six months as a group, makes its debut on the scenarios in the emblematic Madrid Moby Dick room with great success. The room showed a nearly full and the sound was impeccable, which made a record label responsible for this were set in them. Also, the heads of programming of Moby Dick were contracted to participate in the concert series for children The Music Box.
 
 After a few months as a musician collaborator Marti is fully integrated into the band before the group gets into the study to record their first album. The quintet travels to the warm lands of Puerto de Santa Maria in March 2007, where they recorded with the production of Paco Loco Studios Odds their debut album.
 
 The recordings were swift and were done in less time than initially expected and mixtures are sent Sonoland studies in Madrid, where Dani Altarriba is responsible for the mastering. The result of this work are eleven cuts which are "Layabouts", an album that could be categorized as "dance rock" but which has garage, power pop, rock ... 

Guns N' Roses

Guns N' Roses

Guns N’ Roses is one of the best hard rock bands in the history. The band formed in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California in 1985. Led by the singer Axl Rose and the guitarrist Slash,the band has released five studio albums (Appetite for Destruction, GNR Lies, Use Your Illusion I and II and The Spaghetti Incident), three EPs, and one live album, selling 110 millions of albums over the world

The original group was formed by Axl Rose(singer), Slash(lead guitarrist), Duff McKagan(bassist), Izzy Stradlin(rhythm giutarrist) and Steven Adler(drummer). Izzy and Adler were replaced by Gilby Crake and Matt Sorum because they had problems with drugs. Between 1994 and 1996, Gilby Crake, Matt Sorum, Duff McKagan and Slash left from the band because the had problems with Axl Rose. Finally, Axl has formed a new band with the same name (but i think they aren’t Guns N Roses). Slash, Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum has ended up in Velvet Revolver.

Guns N’ Roses is my favourite group because I think they are the best hard rock band ever and because they was the first band of rock that I heard.
It is their best song(and my favourite song):
