Here's my review:

Apocalyptic Love
Cool riff and a great middle-eight section. Chorus sounds a bit dated, but overall, a decent opener. 7/10

One Last Thrill
A good energy, but the vocals sound a tad contrived and the melody doesn't exactly stand out. 3/10

Standing in the Sun
I love these kind of riffs - they're so Slash. The song reminds me a little of Sweet Emotion by Aerosmith. Decent enough track, although a poor choice for a single. 6/10

You're a Lie
One of the best songs on the album. A real grower. 8/10

No More Heroes
Catchy bridge, great guitar work and a strong chorus. One of the better tracks for sure. 8/10

Halo
Nothing special. Annoying vocals and a poor excuse of a chorus. 3/10

We Will Roam
Not one of the strongest tracks, but the chorus gets stuch in your head after a few listens. 6/10

Anastasia
This is the "epic" song on the album clocking in at just over 6 minutes. It kicks off with a great neo-classical inspired opening riff - I wish the song had focused more on that part. It is undoubtedly the album standout track and has a great chorus but the meandering outro solo doesn't excite me the way his best solos do. 8.5/10

Not for Me
Nice track and refreshing to hear something a bit more solemn and downtempo. The opening verse reminds me of Nirvana's Something In The Way, in terms of the general mood and delivery. Kinda wish the whole song had been like that, rather than launching into another unnecessary solo which adds nothing to the track. 8/10

Bad Rain
Rubbish filler. 1/10

Hard & Fast
Great energy on this one. The riff sounds like a sped-up rip-off of Move To The City, but the anthemic chorus makes up for it. 7/10

Far and Away
Reminiscent of Starlight from the last record but not as good. Kinda drags on towards the end and doesn't really go anywhere. 5/10

Shots Fired
This is a bit of a metal track, with some fast Master of Puppets-style rhythm work and a catchy guitar motif repeated throughout. 8/10

Carolina
Filler. 2/10

Crazy Life
I love this one. Brilliant riff, great verses and a catchy chorus. Reminds me a lot of Walk This Way by Aerosmith. 8/10

Overall I'd give the album 7/10. A bit of a mixed bag and not as strong as his first solo record. However, there's a good mix of fun up-tempo rockers and soulful bluesy ballads here with plenty of cool riffs and blistering solos which is all you really expect from a Slash album.

I thought it was a decent album... i llike most of Slash's material outside of GNR none of it has been a total masterpiece yet. But none have been bad either

Crazy Life is my fav off the album

^^ My favourite song on the album as well.
