Georgy Zhukov Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Oh I usually take a long time to listen to a new release. But yeah, I enjoyed it. I look forward to Slash's next album with Myles Kennedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I got high hopes the new album will be much better than Slash. It was a bit dull compared to the Snakepit albums, but it still has some good songs. Looking forward to it. Even though I'm not a big fan of Myles, when he isn't singing GnR/VR songs, he's alright.

Kill Devil Hill Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Myles's vocals on Starlight are some of the most beautiful vocals I have ever heard.Slash's album was solid, in my opinion, but it was nothing to get excited over, I guess. Still, I like a lot of songs on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 I still haven't heard any of the snake pit stuff....I'll go and fix that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmapelian Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Slash was an itch slash had to scratch as some previously mentioned - I thought he did a great job of matching the singer to the music though the cornell and kid rock songs were tamer than I would have liked - and for a lead guitarist that sounds like he was stifled iin VR- there weren't as many epic solo's as I would have likedI'm pumped about the new slash/myles album though! I get the feeling this may be his best work since Guns. The bands been playing together for almost 2 yrs now and Myles can sing the shit out of anything.I'm hoping these knuckleheads get the whole Hall of Fame induction thing right if they do get in. What would be really nice if loaded, slash/myles, and GnR go on tour together. Don't call it a reunion but invit Steve and Izzy and have a extended AFD encoreGuaraunteed nobody will complain if guns comes on round midnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droezle Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Great album. My favourite songs are: Crucify the Dead, Back from Cali, By the Sword, I Hold On, Starlight and Saint Is a Sinner Too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eye2eye Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I still listen to few songs from time to time but I really got bored with it really fast, nothing memorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I still listen to few songs from time to time but I really got bored with it really fast, nothing memorable.Pretty much how I feel too. I was really let down by some of the collaborations, particularly the tracks with Lemmy and Iggy.The standouts to me are Ghost, Beautiful Dangerous, Promise, and By The Sword.

WhazUp Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I really like the tracks with Fergie, Chris Cornell, and MylesThe others just haven't clicked for me, they just don't seem up to par with even the Snakepit material IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosaj Thing Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 (edited) The song with Fergie in instrumental is ultra-killer, the riff is extremely good. Nice song but could have been 1000x better with a strong male voice. Edited December 7, 2011 by pi2loc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stro Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I've turned around on this. I wasn't really into it when it came out besides Beautiful Dangerous and Ghost. But I've been listening to it a little more lately and have been really into most of it. I also recently listened to 5OCSW and thought it sounded good and the singer was pretty awesome, but maybe one track sounded like it could have been a Guns song. I could see why Axl and Duff turned them down for GNR, but they weren't bad by any means.I feel like a lot of the songs feel like a real mix of VR and GNR. A stronger effort than Snakepit for sure. I've been listening to Back from Cali, Starlight, and Promise a lot. Dr. Alibi is pretty good, too. I like Iggy's song, but the lyrics are hilariously terrible. It's a good record. It's grown on me a lot. So has the new Loaded album that I initially was hugely disappointed in after how excellent Sick was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 By The Sword is a neat song. Too bad Stockdale is doing vocals on it. God, I would rather have Myles sing that -thank god we have Youtube for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's grown on me a lot. So has the new Loaded album that I initially was hugely disappointed in after how excellent Sick was.For me it was the other way around: when 'Slash' came out I loved it, but after 2 months it was obvious it had no staying power at all to me.I'm a huge Slash fan, and I've bought and will continue to buy everything he puts out, but I feel like this album could have been much stronger with just one vocalist and just better songs. I mean, every song has the same stracture, and it's like cue solo, cue chorus, second verse...you just know what to expect and it's not very interesting as a whole.That said, I can't wait for the next album. I have a feeling it will be MUCH better. Slash's playing is better then ever, and the live band is great. Miles and Slash share a cool chemistry together which I think will transfer well to the studio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God, I would rather have Myles sing that -thank god we have Youtube for that.That's how I feel about that song. Watched one of stockdale's live performances and I was cringing most of the song. Love it with Myles' vocals, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
