KeyserSoze Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 Looks like Dammit is in a new band with Snape called Toque? Idk cant tell if thats a joke or not. Also looks as if Snape is playing with Whitford St. Holmes into November... SMKC is a dead entity at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorderlineCrazy Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 SMKC is obviously on hiatus now but even they don't know for how long, they could be back sooner or later than expected. In fact, when Myles was asked about his solo album he said: "As far as the goal to release it, I'm gonna wait and see how long this Alter Bridge tour runs and see what happens with The Conspirators and Slash." They have an album pretty much written and Slash loves playing and being busy. As soon as GNR decides to stop touring and take some time off, SMKC will be back, unless Myles is busy touring with Alter Bridge at that point. Anyway, as a huge SMKC fan, I find the idea of being sad to be pretty ridiculous. Slash is back in Guns N' Roses, it doesn't get any better than that. The only bad thing about it is that SMKC guarantees new music every 2 years or so while we don't know what to expect with Guns. Hopefully they'll release something soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Conspirators are done for a good while I think. Alter Bridge is gearing up for an album release, which is followed by a tour that will surely go into next year. After this run of GNR shows, Axl goes to AC/DC to do the US dates. after which in the winter, GNR hits the road again and goes to south america, and australia. GNR will surely head to Europe next year, either at the beginning of the year, or in the summer for the Festivals. There is not alot of time in between that stuff for a Conspirators record to happen.

Yeah, I think the sooner we should see SMKC getting together is at the second half of 2017. GNR is supposed to play Oz and Asia early next year and then Europe so the next 10-11 months are supposedly covered. And then it depends on whether GNR decides to take some time off, start touring the US again, work on an album... This year, with the April shows already announced, SMKC (without Myles) was supposed to get together in May to work on their album and that didn't happen after all so that's how it's gonna be, it all depends on what happens with GNR. I think Myles will have more than enough time to release "his Chinese Democracy" and do some touring with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guitar Stu Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'm a big fan of SMKC and the Snakepit albums and now that Guns are back together I hope that in the down time Slash can put out another album with the Conspirators but when he tours with them next cut most of the Guns songs out and play their own stuff. There is no need to play more than one or two GnR songs in his other shows with the band back together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnr Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I really like SMKC. IMO Slash is the one who released the best music once GN'R, well, ceased to be GN'R. The rockers were good but the ballads were really great once he got Myles. But yeah not sad at all it ended. Fuck, Slash is back in Guns. Let him play for GN'R, write for GN'R, record for GN'R. It is where he belongs. With that being said, it's a shame I never got to see them. They seemed a killer band live. Almost catch them last year in Bulgaria, too bad it didn't work out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajandreas Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 What GNR fan doesn't like SMKC? I mean yea, Myles singing can get annoying at times but there's endless riffs/solos to learn from Slash. Consistent pure rock music to jam to, nothing better than that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Believe it or not my younger cousin and a guy at work opted out of going to see GnR a few weeks ago. Both said the would wait for Slash and Myles to come back around.. A combination of reasons between the two of them but they both missed out. I tried to get them both to go until the end.

Yes but let me put this to you, - Slash in GN'R playing nostalgia tours and not releasing new material v - Slash in the Conspirators releasing new material. I'd choose the second easily. I think if we believed Guns were going to release something, we would all choose Guns. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Slash with Snakepit and Velvet Revolver, which I thought were good. I kind of liked Slash's solo album with the guest singers on it, I like it better than CD anyway. Apart from a couple of SMKC songs, I don't listen to SMKC at all, I've tried, but I just find them boring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, he needs an Izzy (or an Ian Astbury). I find Myles dull as dishwater. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys haven't played in 23 fucking years.. Can't we enjoy Axl, Slash and Duff put on amazing shows and playing classic songs that we all love and they haven't performed together in almost quarter of a century? I would hardly call this a nostalgia tour.. I could care less about new music at this stage of the game. It is so early and the have a lot of miles to cover before the tour is over.. Let them get their feet wet again.. I personally am just going to enjoy the shows. I live for concerts. And honestly I am not super convinced how good new music will be anyway.. Bands at this stage almost never match the quality of the music of prime. I didn't like Axl's voice on CD for the most part.. Or most of the songs for that matter. So if his head is still in that mind space who knows.. Contributions by Fortus and Melissa aren't things that excite me in the least.. Either was Slash is going to record new music soon.. With or without Guns.. You can put money on that.. Right now I am just waiting for another show to come my way and wishing I was able to catch another one before the NA tour ends.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babooshka Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 There's not much to expect from the Conspirators till late 2017 at the earliest. Alter Bridge have their album to work, I think Myles was recording a video a few days back, and Guns are going into next year. So I hope they're just on hiatus, otherwise it is disappointing. Slash has created something great with Myles & co imo, it'll be a waste not to see it through. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 The solo album is great. Easily my favourite post-gnr Slash related album (Snakepit/VR/Conspirators). 'Ghosts' is an incredible little rocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I'm glad about the reunion and all. But I'm eventually gonna need some new SMK&C music in my life. All in due time, bring on the new Alter Bridge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
