The Spaghetti Incident? dirilis pada tahun 1993, merupakan album lanjutan setelah Use Your Illusion, Spaghetti Incident sebagian besar lagu-lagunya sudah direkam sejak masa rekaman Use Your Illusion dimana masih ada Izzy Stradlin yang bermain disana, Sebagian dari lagu-lagu dalam Spaghetti Incident telah direkam sejak masih ada Izzy dan kini bagian-bagian gitar Izzy telah dihapus Slash untuk digantikan oleh Gilby. Album yang terdengar santai tersebut berasal dari perasaan bebas stress yang dinikmati oleh band itu ketika merekam. Gilby adalah pemain gitar yang bebas dari percekcokan, yang selalu memainkan nada-nada yang benar, dan tidak melontarkan kemarahan atau mempertanyakan bagian-bagian para rekannya. Seperti yang dikomentari Slash sambil tersenyum, “Saya suka merekam seperti ini. Selama Appetite for Destruction, GN'R Lies dan Use Your Illusion, saya harus bertoleransi kepada Izzy. Saya tak pernah suka bermain dengannya. Menyenangkan bebas dari dia dalam album ini. album ini terkesan lebih ketat dan jauh lebih keren daripada apapun yang telah kami kerjakan sebelumnya. Saya selalu merasa jengkel karena cara bermain Izzy. Kedengarannya tidak benar. Sebelum Spaghetti, kami menghapus gitarnya dan Gilby menampilkan yang baru. Kedengarannya sempurna!”

Lagu-lagu mereka sudah direkam sejak tahun 1990-1991 ini merupakan ide dari masing-masing personel saat itu yang mengumpulkan lagu-lagu favorit dari tiap-tiap personel untuk kemudian direkam. Axl menganggap bahwa ini hanyalah sebuah album selingan sebelum album besar benar-benar dikerjakan. Maka tak heran jika album yang semua lagunya hanya cover version ini gagal di pasaran.

"The Spaghetti Incident" adalah album kelima dari Guns N' Roses, yang direkam pada awal 90-an. Album ini terdiri dari cover version lagu punk glamour diakhir 70-an atau awal 80-an, dan sebuah lagu pengecualian berjudul "Since i dont have you", merupakan lagu dari tahun 1959.
