I wasn't talking about you, Izzy fan. BTW if someone from the old GN'R puts out mediocre, unispired stuff, that's Izzy. He wrote 4 or 5 potential good songs in the past 20 years, the rest was the same tune with different titles. He only showed how much the others' input was needed in GN'R, to make it sound like GN'R and not some amateur playing in a garage. The Izzy myth is even more disturbing than the 'Axl was GN'R' bullshit.

The  guitar playing is undeniably Slash. Even an idiot could hear it. Not that my buddy is an idiot but I was at his place the other night, played this on the lap top and asked him who he thought it was. He had no clue untill the guitar solo came in and instantly he said "sounds like Guns N' Roses" That's the average Joe who isn't a diehard's way of saying that sounds like Slash.  Hilarious that some people are calling this song shit and generic and garbage and yet praise the shit on CD. Blinded fanatsism at it's best. 16

Had Axl sang over this exact piece of music most who are complaing it sucks would say how fucking awesome it is and  they all know it. It's laughable that this song can be labelled shit and then the same people will turn around and talk about how amazing IRS is. Give me a fucking break

The song is decent. It's not mindblowing and it's not shit.  A little perspective maybe people.

This.

The difference between Axl and Slash fans that Axlites will praise any shit with him 'mind-blowing' and hate everything Slash does for 'being shitty'. While Slash fans have a larger scale to rate things - I do like a few tunes off CD a lot, and can enjoy some others, depending on the mood. The difference maybe because some of us, 'Slashites' are at least bedroom musicians, while Axl fans are shower singers, only.

When Slither came out, so called GN'R fans (they are not - they are Axlites) were calling it shitty. Then it became a monster rock hit, much, much bigger, than anything off Chinese Mediocrity. Later these same people said it was the only good song on the album, the rest sucked. Then Libertad came out, and suddenly Contraband was much better. Now You're a Lie is the worst shit ever made on this planet.

I'm done with this zealot fanboyism. These people are either tone deaf, or blind cultist haters, or liars. I'm not a fan of this new Slash song. I like it to a certain degree. It does not suck at all, although far from anything memorable. It's an okay song, I expected and expect much more from him. That's my Slashite fanboyism, and I think the same can be said about Bono, D, Smoking, Metallex etc. On the other hand Axlites are always satisfied with any shit he puts out, any awful show he does, everything. He's King Axl for them, they praise even his last fart for the melody and unique rhythm. That's the difference.

RIP. I was a huge fan of their shows in my early teens.

You are terribly wrong. I can always tell if it's Slash playing. Every GN'R should BTW. wink His playing is so unique like nobody else's.

Good for you, use your illusions bro. Back in the real world. This song is shit.

Just because you're deaf, it doesn't mean other people can't hear it. BTW any so called GN'R fan, who cannot recognize Slash's playing, is not more than a Britney fan who lost his way. Fuckin' lead singer dependant stupid bunch. Music is much more than a guy or girl singin', but you'll never know it.

Oh, I almost forgot. Your username 'Riad' tells a lot about not knowing jack shit about music. That stolen, uninspired, unfinished shitty song is the biggest pile of crap in GN'R's history, among with some other CD turds.

Slash, ‘You’re a Lie’ – Song Review
by: Billy Dukes 3 hours ago

Slash has settled on a lead singer to front the songs from his upcoming ‘Apocalyptic Love‘ album, and the chemistry with Myles Kennedy is unmistakable on ‘You’re a Lie,’ the album’s first single.
The necessarily loud and tightly produced recording is amongst his best post-GNR works.

The biggest challenge for a guitarist releasing a solo project is finding a balance with the vocalist that features the man who’s name is stamped on the album jacket without castrating his singer. ‘You’re a Lie’ begins with almost 40 seconds of Slash in the driver’s seat a la Ryan Gossling in ‘Drive,’ but when it’s time he lets Kennedy shine.

“You’re a voice of reason that I can’t escape / Cut me down a thousand times a day / I don’t need you anymore / I don’t need you anymore,” he sings to open the lyric.

The two — along with the other Conspirators, who’s contributions shouldn’t be overlooked — weave around each other like circus performers. Slash’s technical noodling only compliments Kennedy’s lyrics. It’s a brilliant balance they hold on to for almost four minutes.

“‘Cause you’re a liar, liar / All my faith has been wasted, wasted / ‘Cause you’re a liar, liar / I don’t need you to save me anymore,” Kennedy sings during the chorus.

‘You’re a Lie’ never lets up, moving from chorus to verse to guitar solo without space for a breath or even a pause for emphasis. It’s pedal-to-the-metal rock and roll from start to finish. Perhaps only ‘Black Betty’ by Ram Jam will be the cause of more speeding tickets.

5/5

Slash, ‘You’re a Lie’ – Song Review
by: Amy Sciarretto 6 hours ago
http://loudwire.com/slash-youre-a-lie-song-review/

The first taste of Slash‘s new album, ‘Apocalyptic Love,’ due out May 22, is upon us in the form of the lead single ‘You’re a Lie.’ The tune is a rowdy, bluesy rocker, anchored by Slash’s signature riffing and style.
You know it’s Slash the minute his fingers hit the strings. But it’s not Slash trying to recapture his Guns N’ Roses glory or repaving familiar territory. He’s authored a distinct style that’s uniquely Slash on his solo work.

The song has lots of building tension, which starts in the verses and then explodes like a powder keg in the choruses. Vocalist Myles Kennedy also adds another layer of bluesy firepower to the song. He and Slash are quite a tandem, and their singer/lead guitarist chemistry is palpable and their talents are totally complimentary. Kennedy’s vocal style, which is dramatic, blues-influenced and high, is the perfect fit for Slash — just like that guy Axl Rose‘s was. It’s a testament to Slash’s universal tone. A variety of voices pair perfectly with his playing and that’s no small feat. It’s totally evident on ‘You’re a Lie,’ too.

The song is a kiss off to the other half of a fractured relationship or someone who has wronged you, with singalong-worthy phrases like, “All my faith has been wasted, wasted” and “I don’t need you to save me anymore.” It’s all about telling that person not to let the door hit ‘em in the rump.

There’s lots of deep grooves on ‘You’re a Lie,’ too. If you’re not tapping your toes throughout and hitting the “repeat” button to listen multiple times, then you have no soul!
4/5

Not the best song ever, far from even a memorable one - but still far from the garbage cathegory. 6/10  If this is the best track on the album, then it'll suck. If it's the worst - then it'll be a very good album, at least. We'll see it in a few months - except those who have already made up their mind.

I've made up my mind on this track it sounds generic. You wouldn't even know it was a slash song it sounds like a Shinedown b-side.
