SLASH FT. MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS - Living The Dream (21 septembre 2018)

Comme prévu Slash a trouvé le temps de faire un album et même de partir en tournée entre les dates des Guns !  



SLASH FT. MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS will release their new album, "Living The Dream", on September 21 via Slash's own label Snakepit Records in partnership with Roadrunner Records. The follow-up to 2014's "World On Fire" is Slash's fourth solo album, and third with his band featuring Myles Kennedy (vocals), Brent Fitz (drums), Todd Kerns (bass, vocals) and Frank Sidoris (guitar, vocals).

For "Living The Dream", Slash and his band re-teamed with producer Michael "Elvis" Baskette (ALTER BRIDGE, IGGY POP, INCUBUS); the group is currently putting the finishing touches on the powerful 12-song collection.

The band will support the disc by embarking on tour of the U.S. and Canada in early September.

The artist pre-sale starts tomorrow at 10 a.m. local time on each stop. Use the password "SLASH18" to fet your tickets at SlashOnline.com.

Back in March, Slash said that he was "excited" about the material that was written for the upcoming SLASH FT. MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS album. "It's got some cool songs and it's got a great live feel," he said.

"I've been working with Myles, Brent and Todd for about eight years now. It's been an amazing ride so far; as a band we continue to get better which is great. With the addition of Frank since the 'World On Fire' tour, I feel we have hit a great, creative stride which I definitely think shows on this next record."

After Slash and the CONSPIRATORS toured "World On Fire", rumors about the long-awaited GUNS N' ROSES reunion tour began to circulate and were confirmed in early 2016.

The current GUNS trek — which features Slash and fellow original members Axl Rose and Duff McKagan — launched in April 2016 and has since grossed more than $400 million, with more dates coming this summer and this fall.

Despite the success of the "Not In This Lifetime" reunion tour, there has been no indication that GUNS intends to record a new album anytime soon. The last GUNS studio album, "Chinese Democracy", came out in 2008 and featured only Axl Rose from the band's classic lineup. The last album on which Rose, McKagan and Slash appeared together was 1993's covers set "The Spaghetti Incident?"

Kennedy's debut solo album, "Year Of The Tiger", was released on March 9 via Napalm Records.

1er show hier soir au au Whisky A Go Go à LA.
Comme prévu il n'y a plus de morceaux des Guns dans la setlist (bon ok il reste Rocket Queen), maintenant que Slash a rejoint le groupe ça n'avait plus de sens d'en jouer en solo. Rien du Velvet Revolver ou du Snakepit.

Spoiler:

Deux dates chez nous l'année prochaine:

Dernier extrait avant la sortie de l'album ce vendredi:

Le clip:




L'album est sympa, mais encore une fois avec ses albums solo je trouve pas ça exceptionnel. Bon il est quand même plus court, direct et beaucoup plus digeste que l'interminable World on Fire, c'est une bonne chose.

Ça confirme que Slash est un meilleur guitariste que compositeur, il a besoin d'Axl, Duff (et Izzy Stradlin !) pour faire quelque chose d'exceptionnel.

Amen.

Le DVD live de la tournée arrive bientôt:

SLASH FEATURING MYLES KENNEDY AND THE CONSPIRATORS will release "Living The Dream Tour" on DVD+2CD, Blu-ray+2 CD, 3LP black vinyl, limited-edition 3LP red vinyl, digital video and digital audio on September 20 via Eagle Vision.

"Living The Dream Tour" was shot on location on February 20, 2019 in front of a rabid crowd at London, England's Eventim Apollo. It features Slash and company roaring through a highly charged two-hour set of tracks from all four of Slash's solo albums. The set includes "Call Of The Wild", "Driving Rain", "By The Sword", "Back From Cali", "Starlight", "World On Fire" and "Anastasia". There's a searing live version of "Shadow Life", as well as "We Are All Gonna Die" and "Doctor Alibi", during which lead singer Myles Kennedy switches vocal duties with bassist Todd Kerns. Watch a "first look" of the "Living The Dream Tour" as the band performs "Anastasia" below.

Earlier this year, Slash told Loudwire about the London concert filmed for the live release: "Whenever you do a live recording, all you can do is just wing it. You can hope that that particular show is not going to be the worst one on the tour. Very rarely do you plan to do a live record and it's the most magic show of the whole tour. That's a kind of luck that just doesn't really happen all that often."

He continued: "It was one of the best London crowds that I played in front of with THE CONSPIRATORS, for sure. It was a really great, great, great live [experience], the whole vibe of the thing was great, and it was great that it was at Hammersmith, which is just one of those historical venues. It was a good, energetic show, and I listened to the live recording, or at least some of it, and it's totally raw, and all the mistakes are in there. We don't really doctor any of it, so it's a pretty honest representation of what happened that night."

DVD/Blu-ray bonus feature: "Live In London" mini-documentary, including interview with Slash and Myles, plus behind-the-scenes footage of the tour.

SLASH FEATURING MYLES KENNEDY AND THE CONSPIRATORS' 2019 worldwide tour in support of their most recent studio album "Living The Dream" continues with the launch of their North American headlining tour through July 15 in San Francisco. The trek will include festival stops at Heavy Montreal in Quebec on July 28 and at Lollapalooza on August 4 in Chicago, Illinois.

Différents extraits du live:






Y a rien à faire, je vénère Slash en tant que guitariste chez les Guns mais sa carrière solo ne m'emballe pas (à part son 1er album solo avec différents chanteurs)...

Un court extrait d'une collaboration entre Slash et Chester Bennington a été dévoilé. Ce morceau qui n'a jamais vu le jour aurait dû être sur son premier album solo, au final le titre est devenu Doctor Alibi chanté par Lemmy.
