What number did G N' R Lies reach on the US Billboard 200?

G N' R Lies reached number two on the US Billboard 200. Guns N' Roses released the album through Geffen Records on November 29, 1988, following the huge success of Appetite for Destruction.

The album combined two contrasting halves. Its first four songs came from the earlier live EP Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide, while the final four tracks were newly recorded acoustic performances. That format helped the band follow its blockbuster debut without making another conventional hard-rock album.

The album’s success also produced the hit single “Patience,” which reached number four on the Billboard Hot 100. A common mix-up is confusing the album’s number-two Billboard 200 peak with Use Your Illusion II, which later debuted at number one. G N' R Lies was eventually certified multi-platinum in the United States and remains the band’s shortest studio album.
