Great Slash Interview....


Hot off the internet press. :slash: Here's an excerpt I found interesting: "Have you ever talked guitar with people like Joe Perry and Jimmy Page? I was joking about this recently – whenever I hang out with guitar players, the last thing we want to talk about is guitars. I think guitar players are an interesting breed because we’re all very aware of how many of us there are and we’re also very aware of what the other guys are doing or what their sound is like and blah blah blah. But it


With Release Date Seemingly Set, We Look Back At 17 Years Of Guns N’ Roses’ Chinese Democracy


It’s been 17 years since Guns N’ Roses released a studio album full of fresh material — the one-two punch that was 1991’s Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II — and in that long stretch, fans have learned one thing: Axl Rose refuses to rush the creative process. OK, they’ve also learned that a lot of lies can be told over 17 years and that a band can still tour successfully, even if that band looks nothing like anyone remembers. Now that Hits Daily Double is reporting a firm November 2

Slash: “Not Going To Make Any Compromises”


Slash is referring to the future direction of Velvet Revolver, both musically and vocally. He wants Velvet to sound ‘really heavy.’ And he makes it seem, in his comments at least, that the band compromised their original creative ideas when taking on Scott Weiland as their singer years back. At least that’s how I read into it: “We spent at that time 10 months listening to 200 singers a week, and chased after Scott, and managed to make that work. We were off and running, but then things fell shor
