G N’ R Lies

~ Release group by Guns N’ Roses

Annotation

Contemporary Scene Commentary (iRO, 2002) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following commentary was included in the 2002 digital preservation release of this album by the group iRO (Internal Ripping Organization):

"G N' R Lies is where the band metamorphosized from genuine threat to joke. Constructed as a double-EP, with the 'indie' debut 'Live ?!@ Like A Suicide' coming first and four new acoustic-based songs following on the second half. Neither recorded live nor released by an indie label, 'Live ?!@ Like a Suicide' is competent bar-band boogie, without the energy or danger of Appetite for Destruction. The new songs are considerably more problematic. 'Patience' is Guns N' Roses at their prettiest and their sappiest... Its emotional directness makes the misogyny of 'Used to Love Her' and the pitiful slanders of 'One in a Million' sound genuine." Date of Commentary: 2002-05-13
