Axl Rose Interviewed for Kurt Loder’s ‘Famous Last Words’

“The reason I OD’d was because of stress,” Rose told Loder. “I couldn’t take it. And I just grabbed this bottle of pills in an argument and just gulped’em down. And I ended up in the hospital.”

Rose also spoke to Loder about Guns N’ Roses’ forthcoming double album USE YOUR ILLUSION, eventually released in 1991. Guns N’ Roses is currently on tour.
