Slash is too talented to waste all his new music on a low tier writer such as Myles. I never minded his voice as much as others did but his generic Nickelback/Shinedown lyrics and melodies ruined the albums for me. I thought the 2010 album was very cool. If it is a cover album I hope there's a lot of original riffs and leads. The sophomoric laughing emoji is all you got? Figures. Right back at ya. The real joke to LOL at is that you have absolutely no idea what talent is. NONE. And that you don't even realize it. Your subjective opinion of not preferring someone's work doesn't in any way mean they have subpar talent. That's akin to someone not liking Quentin Tarantino movies and because of that labeling him "low tier". The only thing low tier is your self-important opinion. As you were.

jacdaniel Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 10 minutes ago, meadsoap said: Look at the 2010 interview that someone posted before. The difference.. the rest is that the other seemed to believe in new music actually coming out and seemed excited about it until it was dampened over time. Slash, by his own admission, never really believed that at all, was making fun of Axl for it even. So that means in every interview since the reunion started, he never believed a word of what he was saying to the public but still chose to say it anyway. That's fundamentally dishonest. And what is it all for? To save face ? Just like he would constantly throw everyone else around him under the bus to save face, like in his memoir, and didn't ever apologize when caught in a lie? Like with Velvet Revolver and the mess of how it ended? It's a pattern at this point, and one that I'm not too fond of. They already released 2 songs... They are on Spotify. So he didn't lie. I'd be fairly confident that he's not lying about reworking more songs, they're soundchecking Perhaps. Whether Axl wants to release more is up to him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This album is an extra project and it won't interfere with SMKC 2024 tour and another record with Myles after that. Have a nice day guys Good to hear, I think they had said earlier that they had more songs written for the next SMKC record also. 15 minutes ago, thunderram said: Another day, another fan of this forum dissing Myles Kennedy in some way, shape, or form.

jacdaniel Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Myles is a very talented singer and drama free frontman but I have to admit that the last 2 SMKC albums didn't do it for me. Some good stuff but felt rushed which it probably was with Slash in Guns and Myles with AB. I love them as a live band but if they ever record a new album I hope they take the time to really make something good. I am more excited about this new solo album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crd26 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I noticed Slash was wearing an Eric Clapton T-shirt recently. Hopefully he is on the blues album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Bird Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I think everyone who's now waiting for a proper blues record will be disappointed. I'd like that a lot but he just said that it's more blues oriented than his first solo record. That doesn't mean it's a blues album. That photo with Steven Tyler and Mike Clink in the studio seems promising but as long as Slash is involved in so many projects, this session doesn't have to be for the new album. I wish he invited some of the old heroes like he did on Slash and hope there's less Lovatos, Fergies and Scherzingers on the new one although Lovato's already confirmed. Don't get your hope up for Axl. He just won't guest on anything... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the album will be a mixed bag with of different styles (and maybe even a bunch of bonus tracks) like the first Slash & Friends album. I'd love at least one instrumental blues track, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its Tino Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 A song with Billy Gibbons would be perfect for a bluesy album. And someone mentioned a song with Mustaine. Ever since I read in Slash’s book that him and Dave would smoke crack and write heavy riffs I always wondered what that would sound like.

I don't know if Axl would be on it, as it would drag way too much attention to the lack of GNR new music. But I wouldn't take the "more blues-oriented" comment as meaning it would be all traditional blues. Maybe it's a good opportunity for Slash to show his more mellow ideas, with less gain on his guitar, but still a blues-rock album. I hope so. I want a Snakepit sounding blues rock record with guests vocalists and a Izzy appearance too Edited July 21, 2023 by Top-Hatted One 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Izzy on vocals and guitar would be good for one and I can actually see Slash asking as a way to build any bridges that may have collapsed. If it's all covers that will at least stop people assuming it's material Axl turned down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethalis Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) I see this as really bad news for a new GNR album. Slash releasing a solo album, Duff releasing a solo album... these people need their creative outlets and GNR probably isn't it and won't be. Anyways, I'm still looking forward to these solo albums though Edited July 21, 2023 by Lethalis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoForJMark Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Would be cool if he did 1 song featuring duff, steven, izzy and axl. I won't give a fuck about gnr releasing anything after that lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slash clearly wouldn't release anything if Guns were to deliver a whole new record. It's just a sign that GNR do not plan to release a record around that time in 2024. But who did believe in that? We're waiting for confirmed singles for months/years now. I don't need a solo record to know that there won't be a GNR album anytime soon.
