The first single from Slash's new album, Apocalyptic Love, hit radio earlier today. You can listen to "You're A Lie" on Loudwire or stream it below via YouTube.
"'You're A Lie' is the second song I brought to the band in 2011 during the last tour," said Slash of his new single. "We worked on it at soundcheck somewhere, I can't remember where. It's gone through some minor changes along the way, mainly the chorus. But for the most part, it's remained true to its original arrangement. I can't wait to play this live."
Apocalyptic Love is set for release on May 22 via Slash's own Dik Hayd International label.
