Two legendary albums from two bands that were both praised for changing the music scene back in the day. Both albums feature at least one iconic hit from each respected band (Smells Like Teen Spirit, Sweet Child O' Mine/Paradise City) Both are critically acclaimed, and have ended up on several all-time best albums ever lists. Two distinctly different albums, with many parallels in terms of acclaim/success/status. Which is the better album?   |

Definitely two of the greatest albums in music history, but I gotta go with Nevermind here. There's not one bad song in the album. And heck, even the cover is iconic.

Appetite For Destruction gets my vote. It's got a little bit of everything whereas Nirvana's album is a bit more of a soundalike sweepstakes if you ask me. Both are fun to listen to though.
Seeing this poll, is anyone else reminded of the Kurt Cobain/Axl Rose rivalry from back in the early '90s? Talk about two douche bags going at it.

I voted for Appetite For Destruction, but both are classic albums.

Kurt hated Axl, and disparaged GN'R, whereas Axl was a huge Nirvana fan. It seemed more like a one-sided "rivalry" to me  |

All Axl really wanted was for Nirvana to tour with them, but Kurt had to get all sassy over it. I guess just knowing how Axl had some character issues of his own back then, it's easy for me to have a distaste for both of them. |

Nevermind, but it's VERY close. Both excellent albums.

I could see if they didn't like each other as individuals, but I can't wrap my mind around talking s*it about GN'R's artistry. because they were awesome. If that tour had worked out, though, it could have been as big of a mess as Metalica and GN'R ended up being, though, so maybe that's not a terrible loss |
