Free Music Notes for G N' R Lies

Free Music Review: A New Direction
Hit: 4 Stars

An album with two distinct halves, G N' R Lies is one part a "live" recording, previously released as the pre-Appetite for Destruction water tester Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide, while the second half is a collection of acoustic originals. As such, the album has two very distinct feels to it, and boasts both some highlights of Guns N' Roses' catalog, as well as many fan favorites.

Beginning with the "live" half (which isn't actually live, but a studio recording with crowd noise added in for effect), the band performs two originals and two covers. "Reckless Life," written well before the band had much of what would become their dangerous reputation, is a strong opener, as is the follow up cover of Rose Tattoo's "Nice Boys," both of which fit the band's style very well. They follow these with original "Move to the City" and a cover of Aerosmith's "Mama Kin," which demonstrate the band's less heavy tendencies and pay a tribute to one of the rock classics that came before them.

The acoustic half is all original material, beginning with the hit "Patience," which is likely the most well known track on the album. The tongue in cheek "Used to Love Her," with its comically dark lyrics follows, prior to a revisitation of Appetite track "You're Crazy," which loses little of its edge, despite being unplugged. "One in a Million" closes the album, and is a clear highlight, though it also deals with some controversial material.

All in all, a great EP coming between the groundbreaking Appetite for Destruction and the enormous scope found on the Use Your Illusion albums.
