no one has ever expected enlightened behavior from heavy metal bands, Guns N' Roses probably set some kind of record for managing to offend a huge portion of potential fans with their songs. But the final straw for some was the robot-rape-scene cover (by the noted artist, Robert Williams) used for their 1987 hit album. After protests and denunciations, Geffen Records replaced it with a tattoo-styled, skulls-and-cross motif.

Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide is a four-song EP released by the American rock band Guns N' Roses on December 16, 1986 on the label, UZI Suicide. (This was ostensibly a self-released record but UZI Suicide was actually part of Geffen Records.)[2] When referred to by the band members talking about the EP, they have simply called it Live Like a Suicide. The record itself was reportedly limited to only 10,000 copies, and it came out only in vinyl and cassette formats.
According to Steve Adler's autobiography, the entire EP was recorded at Pasha Studios in Hollywood with audience applause and cheering in the background as Geffen's engineers told him "it would cost too much to actually record a live record". [3]
One song considered for this EP was Shadow of Your Love, which never made it onto the album. In 1988, the recordings featured on Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide were re-released along with four newer songs as the album G N' R Lies.
