Not a lie !

"What an rock'n'roll career Melissa Auf der Maur has had thus far. A former bassist in Hole
and The Smashing Pumpkins, front woman to a side project called Hand Of Doom - the amazing
Black Sabbath tribute band - and now a solo singer; The Canadian woman definitely has exceptional talent. Real A Lie is the second single to be released from her first class, self-titled debut
album "Auf der Maur".
This song features as intro a steady melancholic riff hold attention but the guitar work and drumming is standard stuff throughout the song.
Her voice seize the listen : she is such an intriguing vocalist.Melissa Auf der Maur's transition from another band's bass player to solo singer/songwriter seemed to be remarkably succed. A strong praise can be lavished on a very talented and arousing musician."

Doesn't get any better than this

"I'll make this short & sweet: this single is a MUST-HAVE for any fan of Melissa Auf Der Maur. IMO it's even better than the single of "Followed The Waves." There are several gems here...you get the b-side "Afraid" (a great song), an acoustic version of "Taste You" (my personal favorite) and of course the video of "Real A Lie." This single is loaded with goodies. Don't think twice about buying it. Just get it! It's a limited edition, so chances are it won't be around for much longer.I had the great pleasure of meeting Melissa this past weekend when she did an acoustic set and autograph signing. What a nice person she is. A true genuine talent and a great human being. Keep up the good work Melissa!"

Real a lie will blow your mind
