- Description:
- Guns N` Roses: W. Axl Rose (vocals); Slash, Izzy Stradlin (guitar, background vocals); Duff "Rose" McKagan (bass, background vocals); Steven Adler (drums, background vocals).
When Guns N` Roses emerged from L.A.`s Sunset Strip scene in the mid-1980s, the band embodied a dangerous, snarling-attitude and slashing-riffs side of rock & roll that had been absent in the countless hair-metal bands cluttering the music industry at the time. Led by volatile frontman W. Axl Rose, G N` R was powered by the dual-guitar attack of Izzy Stradlin and Slash that made the band`s full-length debut, APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION, an instant classic.
The APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION follow-up, LIES, combined the band`s live 1986 EP, LIVE LIKE A SUICIDE and four new studio tracks. The first half finds G N`R tearing it up in concert with such incendiary tracks as "Reckless Life" and "Nice Boys." These ripping anthems, along with a smoking cover of "Mama Kin" made the band the heir apparent to Aerosmith, the original bad boys of rock. The second half of LIES is what tossed G N`R into a sea of controversy. Although a track like the sensitively wrought "Lies" ruffled few feathers, songs like "Used to Love Her" and "One in a Million" brought on accusations of misogyny and bigotry.

Customer Reviews
Overall Rating: 5
I am very happy with GN'R Lies and the other Guns N' Roses cd's that I purchased. My cd collection was stolen after years of buying cd's and keeping up with them all these years I was furious to discover that they were gone. All the music that I loved was gone. So I am slowly building back my collection. I love rock music, especially Guns N' Roses, so those were the first cd's to be replaced. Thank you for having most of them in stock and having very reasonable prices.
