Use Your Illusion II

Use Your Illusion II is the fourth studio album by American hard rock band Guns N' Roses, released by Geffen Records on September 17, 1991, the same day as its counterpart Use Your Illusion I. The supporting tour for the albums, the Use Your Illusion Tour, began in May 1991, four months before the release of the albums due to delays in getting the albums out. Bolstered by the lead single "You Could Be Mine", Use Your Illusion II was the slightly more popular of the two albums, selling a record 770,000 copies its first week and debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, ahead of Use Your Illusion I's first-week sales of 685,000. As of 2010, Use Your Illusion II has sold 5,587,000 units in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Both albums have since been certified 7× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It was No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart for a single week.

It is the last Guns N' Roses studio album to credit rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin, and the last with drummer Steven Adler who plays on "Civil War". Along with Use Your Illusion I, it was the last Guns N' Roses album to include new original material until 2008's album Chinese Democracy.
