Slash shares new Guns N’ Roses album update



Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash is sharing an update on the status of a new album by the band ahead of their January 31 appearance at the Super Bowl Music Fest in Miami, FL.

The rocker – who previously revealed the group’s plans to begin recording new music last fall – reconfirmed activity within their camp as discussions continue about what form a future release might take.

“There’s been no definitive answer on anything and I’ll just keep to that,” Slash tells Guitar.com. “Stuff is happening, but there are no specifics. More than anything, it’s because of the nature of the industry right now. It’s just like, how do you want to do this? I mean there’s material and there’s recording and there’s s**t going on, but we’re not really sure what we’re doing with it right now.”

The guitarist is keenly aware of the changes in the music business since his last appearance on a Guns N’ Roses record was 1993’s “The Spaghetti Incident?”

“Yeah! And there’s a handful people who said, ’Yeah, make a record and go old school’,” he explained. “And there’s a handful of people that are like, ’We don’t even know what buying a record is any more!’”
