L.A. Guns is a rock ban from Los Angeles, California, originally formed in 1983 and continuing on today. During the 1980s the band's first three albums gained some commercial success, though historically the band is perhaps most noteworthy because some of its original members went on to form Guns N' Roses. As of right now, there are two different versions of the band touring and recording, as they remain in conflict over rights to the name.
