A song released as a single by Skid Row in 1989.

It was inspired by a newspaper article guitarist Dave “Snake” Sabo read about an 18-year-old boy who shot and killed his friend.

In 1989, it became one of the most-aired music videos on MTV.

With its surging, heavy guitar riff, this is one of Skid Row’s signature songs—powerful and cool.

Marking a sharp turn from their glitzy debut image, it may well symbolize their shift toward a more aggressive, hard-hitting metal sound.

The rebellious theme—flipping the bird at society’s hypocrisy and corruption—is embodied by Sebastian Bach’s ferocious shouts.

Released in June 1991, the track appears on the classic album “Slave to the Grind,” which debuted at No.

1 on the Billboard charts.

The main riff is simple and repetitive, making it perfect for those who want to master a quintessential riff before diving into more technical playing.

Nail this riff, and you’ll gain a huge sense of accomplishment and confidence.
