Watch: Axl Rose in his first interview in five years



11/11/11 was National Metal Day (as dubbed by VH1 Classic) and they dedicated their day’s programming to all things metal. Included in that line up was the first interview that Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose had done in five years. Eddie Trunk, Jim Florentine and Don Jamieson of That Metal Show hosted the interview and you can see part one of the conversation up top.

Down below are parts two and three. Note that the hosts enjoy stressing that GnR had just played a three-hour show in Miami, FL. Because no one can play for three hours, right? Just the Foo Fighters, Prince, Springsteen, McCartney…but I digress.

Also discussed are the original idea for the cover of Appetite For Destruction. No, not the robot raping the topless chick but a picture of the space shuttle Challenger exploding after lift off. Rose also talks about the band’s nomination for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Chinese Democracy and what he’s been listening to these days.
