5 out of 5 stars Nice Boys Don't Play Rock N' Roll.......2007-06-30

While Guns N' Roses debut album "Appetite for Destruction" (1987) initially failed to make a major impact, over the course of a few months, with singles like "Welcome to the Jungle" and "Sweet Child `O Mine," almost overnight, Guns N' Roses became the biggest band on the planet.

To capitalize on the band's success, Geffen re-released Guns N' Roses first release, the "Live like a Suicide" (1986) EP along with four new recordings. Together, these eight songs made up Guns N' Roses second album "GN'R Lies" (1988).

"Live Like a Suicide" had been released one year before "Appetite" as a way for Geffen to introduce Guns N' Roses to the public. Although it was released under the "Uzi Suicide" label, that was just a front for Geffen. It was thought that if the EP had been released under an indie label it might have given the band added street cred. And while "Live Like a Suicide" is supposed to be a live album, that's not really the case. Crowd noise was added to the recordings, to which singer Axl Rose would later decry as "contrived."

While "Live Like a Suicide" or "side A" of "GN'R Lies" isn't as powerful as AFD, these are still great songs. While they may not have been recorded in front of an audience, they still have a live sound as they don't sound overproduced or have a lot over overdubs. Hopefully, however, one day "GN'R Lies" will be re-released without the faux crowd noise.

The opening "Reckless Life," featuring Rose's mightily signature wail and Slash's signature screeching solos, can be seen as a precursor to "Welcome to the Jungle." Rose Tattoo's "Nice Boys" is another fine hard-rocker and follows nicely. An early GN'R classic and the best song on "Live Like a Suicide," the groove-laden swagger of "Move to the City" has a clear element of vintage Aerosmith. A cover of Aerosmith's "Mamma Kin" is good, if not great.

The second half of "GN'R Lies" consists of four new acoustic recordings, demonstrating early on how versatile GN'R were. The Izzy Stradlin penned "Patience" is just plain terrific. A gorgeous balled, it's not overdone or overly sentimental, yet shows a sensitive side to the band none-the-less. "Used to Love Her" a song about killing your wife/girlfriend is one of the band's more misunderstood songs. As Rose states in "Live Era" (1999) while introducing the song, it's just a joke, a fantasy.

The country-esque "Your Crazy" is an acoustic version of the same song released a year before on "Appetite." While the "fast" AFD version of "Your Crazy" is probably the album's weakest song, the slower version on "GN'R Lies" is one of GN'R best recordings.

Guns N' Roses most controversial song, "One in a Million" closes out the album. This is the song that Axl Rose/Guns N' Roses detractors single-out when they refer to either Rose or Guns N' Roses as racist and/or homophobic. Listening to the song, it's easy to see why the song generated a storm of controversy upon its release. However, to simply condemn Rose and GN'R would be simplistic and a knee-jerk reaction.

Does "One in a Million" have racist, xenophobic and homophobic undertones? Yes. Is Axl Rose a white supremacist that hates gays? No. Essentially, the song is a gritty, honest confessional taken from the perspective of an ignorant young man who has grown up in Indiana his whole life, and upon arriving to LA, has negative experiences with blacks and gays. It's a song from the perspective of how Rose felt at the time and it doesn't reflect his current world-view.

Overall, GN'R's "Appetite For Destruction" and "Use Your Illusion I" and "Use Your Illusion II" (both 1991) may be more satisfying than "GN'R Lies" but this album still contains many gems and is overall a great collection of songs. This CD is also recommended for fans that didn't care for the more artistic leanings of "Use Your Illusion" but like the rawness of AFD.

3 out of 5 stars On "I Used to Love Her".......2007-06-21

People, people--"I Used to Love Her" is NOT about killing and burying a girlfriend, it's about putting down and burying a dog. The word that in clean contexts means "female dog," but which is usually used as a derogatory word for women, takes its literal meaning in this song. That's the joke. That having been said, it isn't a very funny joke.

As for my review, I bought this album a long time ago for "Patience," but rarely listen to the whole thing, since it sounds just like what it is--a cobbled-together album to keep the group in the spotlight. And I do object to "One in a Million." This album is pretty much for completists only.

3 out of 5 stars Patience.......2007-03-23

Patience is one of the best song I have ever listen to. Sorry for Gn'r fans but the rest is just 'ok'.

5 out of 5 stars Why 100 Bucks ?.......2007-03-18

I am writing this message , for the people who might have clicked on a "GN'R LIES" , that might have a very high price next to it.It could be the price is for the limited MFSL 24 K Gold Ultra Disc/original Master Recording.If you are a GN'R obsessed fan , that might be for you , but if you are just looking for the regular CD , you can find much cheaper here at Amazon on another GN'R LIES icon , if you keep looking!

As for the songs , I am an avid fan , but looking at a perspective , of what I thought of "LIES" when I first heard it , I was not impressed with the "Live Like a Suicide" stuff (Mamakin,Reckless Life,etc)at first , but it eventually grew on me , and now I would recommend to any fan.I love the acoustic stuff on here the best , and even though the lyrics might cross the line with some people , the overall songs are a great listen.I like "Used to Love Her" , "One in a Million" along with "Patience" as well.Great sing alongs,that give you great escape.

3 out of 5 stars GN'R Runs in Place.......2007-03-17

Uncomfortably positioned between the amazing Appetite for Destruction and the miserably indulgent Lose Your Illusion project, this is very much a stopgap release. And like most stopgaps, it's a complete middle-of-the-road project. Combining the pseudo-live (read: in the studio with crowd noises dubbed in) EP Live ?!#* Like a Suicide and a collection of new, acoustic songs, this could've made a great four-song EP, rather than a lousy eight-song LP. I like Reckless Life, a fierce rocker that should by all accounts be a classic, arguably the most underrated GN'R song out there. Same for their version of Mama Kin. On the other end of the specturm are Nice Boys and Move to the City - neither really make much of an impact on me.
Onto the new stuff. First, the good news - this contains the Top 5 smash Patience, easily one of the group's best songs ever, once again nailing the sensitive-guy routine (which had also previously been done on Sweet Child O' Mine and would happen a third time on November Rain). It's the perfect song - hell, I even like the whistling at the beginning. For whatever reason, I prefer the acoustic You're Crazy to the one released on Appetite - I don't see why it wasn't included on the album in the first place, as it would've added some variety and pounds the living crap out of the full band one.
Okay, now we've got Axl's infamous, borderline-sociopathic stuff. What the hell inspired him to write One in a Million? Was he trying to offend every group of people imaginable, or had he just been dancing with Mr. Brownstone on the Night Train (wink wink nudge nudge) while he was writing it? Even when you look past the lyrics, it sounds like a demo, with Axl singing vocals that sound like he was being castrated as he sang or something. Same with Used to Love Her (But I Had to Kill Her). Jeez, Axl, what the #@)*!) did the world do to you? I mean come on, the guy wore a frickin' Charles Manson shirt, for the love of Eric Clapton (or whoever it is you worship). The sad fact is, he probably just wore the damn thing for the shock value, since it would take somebody even more psychotic than Axl to support that moron. But I digress.
Okay, so what's the point of Lies? Uh, to get Patience on an LP, I suppose, and to make Life !?@* Like a Suicide more widely available. Ooh, ooh! I know! And to hold fans over while they worked on those bloated Illusion discs.

            4 out of 5 stars One of their most underrated releases.......2005-06-01

            GN'R Lies (1988.) Guns N' Roses second album.

            After releasing the Appetite For Destruction album, Guns N' Roses became immediately successful. Unfortunately for them, their next project, which would be two full-length albums released on the same day, was going to take a LONG time to record. The band desperately needed something to hold their fans over so that they wouldn't fade from the spotlight. What they came up with was GN'R Lies, an album that was actually a combination of two EPs. Read on for my review of this album.

            GN'R lies is, essentially, an EP collection. The first four songs are the independently-released Live Like A Suicide EP. This was released in 1986, so this material actually predates the Appetite For Destruction album. Basically it's straight-up, angry hard rock as only GN'R could shell out. By far, the highlight of the Suicide EP is the cover of the old Aerosmith classic, Mama Kin. That's not to say the other songs aren't good, though. The latter four songs on the album are new, mostly acoustic recordings from 1988. The most popular song on this part of the album is Patience, one of the band's finest ballads. It's not surprising that this is the song from this release that gets played on the radio most often. Also not to be overlooked is the classic Used To Love Her, which has a pretty mellow, even folksy sound to it at times, despite its murderous content. In the end, both halves of Lies are solid through and through.

            There's not really anything I can say about different editions of this album. There's just the one, domestic version available, and it's fine. There's nothing wrong with it, and there's really no need for remastering anytime soon. Plus, it's still readily available.

            GN'R Lies is a very good album for essentially being a "filler" release in the band's catalogue. But even GN'R's filler releases are better than a lot of band's best material. This isn't the best place to start if you're new to the band (Appetite is the best starting place for new fans), but if you're a fan of the band, don't hesitate to get Lies.

            4 out of 5 stars A Classic.......2001-11-06

            »G N' R Lies« makes the link between Guns N'Roses' debut album »Appetite For Destruction«'s garage-like rock with no compromises, and the two more polished and very artistic »Use Your Illusion« albums.

            The first four songs, from 1986, are pure hardrock'n'roll. Especially track 3 and 4 - the rocking and melodic »Move To The City« and the swinging »Mama Kin« with its great rhythm (try to listen to this one with headphones on!) - are very worthwile.

            The 1988 songs are more balanced and varied. »Patience« remains one of Guns N'Roses' most beautiful and fragile ballads, and the funny »Used To Love Her« as well as the lyrically very interesting »One In A Million« (the latter is not featured on new pressings - so be sure to buy the original version of »G N' R Lies« before it's too late!!) are tracks which highly justify the quality of this album.

            4 out of 5 stars A very worthwhile interim between "Appetite" and "UYI".......1998-12-08

            "G N' R Lies" served as an excellent pacifier between "Appetite" and "Use Your Illusion" for die hard G N' R fans. Guns N' Roses really exhibit their talent, even in their early stage, in the first 4 live tracks, which originally appeared on the independent release "@#$! Like a Suicide." "Reckless Life" is the best of these early songs. It allows fans to experience the raw energy of the band. In regards to the second half of the album (1988 studio recorded tracks), "One in a Million", despite the profanity, has to be the best. The riff is the catchiest on the album, and Axl is in top form vocally. This album is a must for true Guns N' Roses fans.
