Slash Says New Solo Album Could Be Out In December Post by: The Learned One 7 March, 2011 - 1:15 PM

Legendary guitarist Slash told Triple M’s Higgo backstage at Melbourne’s Soundwave Festival that fans can expect his next solo album to be out as early as December.
Watch Higgo’s interview with Slash!
In between Slash and Higgo bumping heads about their iPhone/Blackberry rivalry and Slash grabbing Higgo’s phone to play ‘Slayer pinball’, the former Guns N’ Roses guitarist managed to confirm that his touring band – including Alter Bridge singer Myles Kennedy – would record the whole album.
Unlike his self-titled 2010 solo release, Slash said there would be no special guest collaborations.
“That was just that one-off record where I wanted to just work with a bunch of people,” Slash told Triple M.
“I did so much session work so I had to get it out of my system, now I’ve got it out of my system, so now I’m going to go and just do a regular record.”
Slash said that most of the writing for the upcoming album would be done on the road.
“When we get done with this (Soundwave tour), he (Kennedy) goes to (tour with) Alter Bridge then when he gets done with Alter Bridge, we go out on the road again,” Slash said.
“And in the meantime we’re just writing individually and then we just compile everything, at some point in December we’ll have everything together.”
How pumped are you for Slash’s next album?

I am pumped, because if Myles has more of a hand in writing, it will make his voice shine, and if the songs are close in quality to "Rise Today" and "Open Up your Eyes" I will be very happy.

That interviewer was a dick. He was trying to be smart and funny, but just comes off as being a douche.
Anyway, he says they'll have everything together at some point in December, which doesn't necessarily mean the album will come out straight away. I still think it'll be an early 2012 release, which is fine, as "Slash" only come out last year.
Great to hear that he's taking the rest of the current live band into the studio too, they all kick ass!
Re: Slash Says New Solo Album Could Be Out In December
I like the idea of the 'sound' of the current band, because I heard them live, and yeah - they kick major ass.
But I still think he needs to take a little time with this album and let it settle in his stomach first, then go back over the material and see if it needs more work.
