Slash reveals solo album details

Velvet Revolver and former Guns N Roses guitarist Slash has revealed that he has demoed 14 songs for his forthcoming solo album.

He told NME Radio that he has recruited a slew of singers to appear on the album, but would not reveal who he has enlisted yet.

He added that he wasn’t sure whether the album would be released before the next Velvet Revolver album. The band are currently in the process of recruiting a new singer, following the departure of Scott Weiland earlier this year.

“I’ve been carrying a tape recorder with me on the Velvet Revolver tour and putting down ideas,” Slash explained. “When I got back from the UK at the beginning of the summer listened to what was cool on them, then elaborated and came up with new stuff.”

The guitarist is set to release a series of new guitars, the Gibson and Epiphone Les Paul Goldtop range, on October 7.
