G N' R Lies followed in November 1988, comprising the four tracks from Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide and four new acoustic recordings.[7] The album peaked at number 2 in the US and was certified six times platinum,[3][5] while its lead single "Patience" reached number 4 on the singles chart.[6] After adding keyboardist Dizzy Reed and replacing Adler with Matt Sorum, Guns N' Roses released Use Your Illusion I and II in September 1991.[1] Upon their release, the albums occupied the top two positions on the Billboard 200 chart and in many other territories.[3] The second album reached number 1 ahead of the first, which Rose credits to fans knowing more of the songs from live performances.[8] "November Rain" was the most successful single from the albums domestically, reaching number 3 on the Hot 100.[6]
During the Use Your Illusion Tour, Stradlin was replaced by Gilby Clarke.[1] In 1992 the band released two live videos from the tour, Use Your Illusion World Tour: 1992 in Tokyo I and II, which both reached the top 20 of the Billboard Music Video Sales chart and were certified gold.[9][5] The following November saw the release of "The Spaghetti Incident?", an album of punk rock cover versions.[10] It reached number 4 in the US, the lowest position of any Guns N' Roses studio album to date.[3] Both singles – "Ain't It Fun" and "Since I Don't Have You" – reached the top ten of the UK Singles Chart.[11] Clarke was replaced by Rose's friend Paul Tobias for a recording of "Sympathy for the Devil" for the Interview with the Vampire soundtrack in 1994,[1] which charted at number 55 in the US and number 9 in the UK.[6][11]
Guns N' Roses changed drastically in the mid-1990s, as Slash left in 1996, and Sorum and McKagan left the following year.[1] The band went through numerous lineup changes as it worked on a new album starting in 1997, with Rose, Reed and Tobias the only remaining members from the previous lienup.[1] The group's first live album Live Era '87–'93 was issued in 1999,[12] but managed only to reach number 45 on the Billboard 200 and was the band's first album not to receive a platinum certification.[3][5] In 2004, Geffen released the compilation Greatest Hits without the consent of the band.[13] Despite this, it was a commercial success that topped the album charts in several countries, including the UK,[11] and sold over 6 million copies in the US.[14] The band's sixth studio album Chinese Democracy was released in November 2008, after 10 years in the making and over $13 million in production costs.[15] It reached number 3 on the US Billboard 200 and sold a reported 2.6 million copies worldwide.[3][16] Appetite for Democracy 3D, the first Guns N' Roses live video album since 1992, was released in 2014 and reached number 1 on the US Billboard Music Video Sales chart.[9] Slash and McKagan rejoined the band in 2016, and in 2018, the band released a remastered box set of their debut album, titled the Appetite for Destruction: Locked N' Loaded edition.[17]
