Are those track lengths legit, where do they come from? If the lengths of these tracks are real that's fucking awesome, seems to be lots of soloing and other jams going on in the songs. 70 minutes of music, compared to SMKCs 43 minutes on the last album.

It was Dave who refused to sing. Have never heard of Jack White refusing to also sing for that same song. Maybe you got it mixed up?

I guess playing live is different to playing in the studio for many players, look at how Slashs playing deteriorated into the same mess within the last 2 or 3 years, but on this new studio recording he played way more focused compared to his live solos. Zakk is the same, these guys just get caught up in the live energy or something, I can't explain it really.

Since only the vocalists of the songs are credited on the feature list I wonder if anyone else is on the instrumental with him, like another guitarist. Would seem strange to me, to have an album full of guests on all songs and leave one out. I'm gonna throw out a wild guess and say that Zakk Wylde is trading solos with Slash on Metal Chestnut. How awesome would that be?

Tash Neal is the singer and guitarist of this new band, you can read it in the press release. Slash will tour it but it hasnt been announced yet

Nah man Brian doesn't have beef with anyone, he's probably the most humble and nicest sweetheart of a guy in the whole of rock. He was most likely more sad than anything about that whole situation, highly, highly doubt him saying yes to record this song with Slash had anything to do with wanting to get back at Axl or Angus or whatever. I'd actually say Slash is the one who would have any intention leaning that kind of way, maybe thinking it would be more funny than anything if they now collaborated on something together. Doesn't hurt that he's also a legend who will bring a lot of attention to his album.

The Steven question was answered with that video interview Blackstar posted, Steven was only in the studio randomly and not invited as a guest singer, he just wanted in on the song once he heard it, he was never planned to be on anything. It's funny and strange after seeing Axl and Angus, we get the opposite crossover universe of Brian with Slash

The video must really do it for you, you went from "I don't like this one", "Brian sounds annoying" to "I see this winning a Grammy" within 24 hours lol

If Axl is only on piano of course he isn't listed, Steven Tyler is not listed either. because he isn't on vocals..so if he's on it, nothings being "hidden". To be fair that guy didn't specify that it would be Axl singing, just that he is on it in some way. It's already confirmed as an instrumental officially. If that dude came out and said Axl SINGS on Metal Chestnut I'd call horseshit right away.

The way he talked about Teddy calling him "a great blues singer" makes me think he might be the vocalist for the tour after all. Just comes across to me that way, I mean..why else would he say that? Just so random to throw out there like that.

Highly doubt it's Myles since this is a different lineup. I've got a feeling it might be the guy from the new band Slash assembled, Tash Neal. He sings the Stevie Wonder cover on the album

I guess you're right it would be cool if he was the full time harmonica player for the album, from the press release we know the Iggy Pop song also has some on it. Still kind of a bummer, maybe this was recorded when his voice was still injured since last fall so he couldn't do it

Still hoping for a special edition like the 2010 album coming later with a bonus Steven vocal track. I can't believe they got in the studio together just to have him do 1 minute of harmonica.

I know right? Slash has been doing SMKC since I was 16 and I just turned 30. It's so fresh and unusual for me to hear him doing something else lol, he's been doing the same thing literally half my life, I was hoping he was going to do something other than SMKC eventually, so finally we have arrived.

It's pretty rare, but he did go to that lower register from time to time. Here's one of the few examples where he does it in the intro:

You should add (feat. Steven Tyler) onto the title, I mean come on, he's a giant of rockPretty cool to have 2 legends like that on the same track. ACDC and Aerosmith were like my 2 favourite bands growing up, so this is wild to me. I'll listen tomorrow when it's out here

My guess is it's a new instrumental because it doesn't have anyone featured on the tracklist as singer

Axl is on it because it's probably the Blues Jam known as "Bon Jovi Can Suck My Dick Rant" from 1987 under a proper song title, so Slash doesn't get sued by Jon

Don't give up yet, after Steven Tyler on Harmonica maybe under the credits of the next single we'll see Piano: Axl Rose

This is gonna hit the ACDC forums like a bomb lol they totally don't expect to wake up to a new Brian vocal to listen to tommorow

I hope @Rovimis happy that there seems to be atleast 1 "new" song at the endI would say chances are it's the 1 lone instrumental on the album

This is some VOODOO shit, with my joke list I got Track 2 AND Track 3 correct, in not only the songs, but also the actual album order. WTF

An album with songs with Brian, Steven Tyler and Axl on it would really be incredible. Then also have artists that crossover like Demi Lovato, would be a pretty great move to make to gain more traction for the album. Hopefully we'll find out tommorow. I really don't care who wrote the songs, that's one way to ruin the enjoyment of your ears by interference from your brain. The real exciting part is who sings and performs on it, not who came up with it, literally couldn't care less lol. I listen to music because it's audio-electricity, and any Slash album always delivers that.

I couldn't care less who wrote what, I want to see who played and sings on the songs, goddamn it. The ACDC connection is exciting, must be either Angus or Brian then, or a cover of The Jack or Ride On which would be cool too. Imagine Axl and Angus on the same track.

It was the best song on the album too, lol
