Slash starts second solo album
« on: August 03, 2011, 11:40:14 AM »
Slash has started work on his second solo album.


The 'By the Sword' rocker tweeted this morning to say production has begun on the record, after arriving back in Los Angeles from playing a concert in Serbia over the weekend. He tweeted: "Started 2nd round of pre prod today. It's going to be a rockin' fn' record! Iii|; )(sic)"

Previously he had detailed his journey back to the US, writing: "Left Serbia 8am, just arrived in LA, 10:30pm. Delays, broken toilets, u name it. Gotta love Delta." Two days previously, he tweeted plans to start on the new album, saying: "We've put together some killer material for new record. Will keep u posted! ii|; ) (sic)."

The former Guns 'N' Roses guitarist had an all star cast of singers on his 2010 debut - including Ozzy Osbourne, Fergie, Iggy Pop and Adam Levigne - but confirmed this time he will work with his live vocalist Myles Kennedy on all the tracks. He previously said: "Myles and I have been writing all throughout the tour so we've got a lot of material, we're starting pre-production in June and then do the tour in July. "In September we're going to do more pre-production and the album is slated to come out in March or April."

It is not currently known if Slash has hired a producer for the record, or where he is planning to record it.

I love his work in Guns, i liked his work in Velvet Revolver, i thought a little of his work on Snakepit's albums was good, i thought he played it safe on his solo album but it wasn't terrible.


The new album is gonna blow.

I feel like this is just a cash grab. I hope not, but I just don't think there are gonna be many quality tunes off it. Just a guess based on nothing but I sense something boring coming our way.

I feel like in GNR, VR and Snakepit he had people pushing him to do different things, that were out of his comfort zone. A good example is CAnt get it out of my head on Libertad. He said he hated the idea of doing that song and was forced into it but his guitar is great on it. Same with november rain, sweet child, etc. I feel like he needs other peoples creative direction to be great. When it is just him, it is straightforward "boring" rock.

Maybe he should get back together with Dave Mustaine then  :D.

Dave writes the songs, Slash adds the guitar magic.

Yup. Its got Myles Kennedy on it. I can appreciate that the guy has a powerful voice, but it annoys the holy hell out of me :tear:

Meh
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Fuck you, whore.

Johan is not nuts. At least not anymore nuts than the rest of us. He is ruled by his own psychology, which includes jealousy that he cannot sing that high.

I'd be happy to get another Slash record.

My only concern is that I really liked contributions by Ozzy, Astbury and Stockdale and now there'll be Myles on every song. Back From Cali is cool, but I don't think they can come up with something really good.

I also think he should have included Baby Can't Drive (feat. Alice Cooper and some girl) onto the first album.


I'll definitely give it a listen or two.  :rockon:
The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?

Nicole Scherzinger.

Baby Can't Drive is on my version of Slash. Must have gotten a "special" bonus edition.
