Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash discussed the progress of the composition and recording sessions for the upcoming Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators album in a recent interview with Brent Porche of 93.3 WMMR, as per Blabbermouth.
It’s done. We just finished mixing it. I finished the sequence yesterday. It’s a killer record, man. We’re excited about it, but it doesn’t come out till the Guns tour’s over. So it’ll get released in probably January of 2027, and then there’ll be a whole world tour that goes along with that. So I had to wait to release it because Guns is out from March through December of this year. So [we’re] putting it out in 2027. But it’s done.
Myles Kennedy, the frontman of Alter Bridge and singer of Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators, spoke with Anne Erickson of Audio Ink Radio last month regarding the next album by the band.
All the tracks are recorded. I finished my vocals back in, let’s see, August of 2025… And then the goal is to get it released soon. We’ve got this Alter Bridge tour cycle and album cycle, and then we’ll see, after that, how quickly we can put out some new music with Slash & The Conspirators.
British-American musician Slash gained international recognition as the lead guitarist for Guns N’ Roses starting in the late 1980s. He is regarded as one of the best guitarists in history and has won praise from critics. Slash was born in Hampstead, London, and grew up in Blurton, Stoke-on-Trent. At the age of six, he and his father relocated to Los Angeles. Actor Seymour Cassel gave him the moniker Slash when he was younger, and both of his parents worked in the entertainment business. He joined the glam metal group Hollywood Rose in 1983. In 1985, he replaced founding member Tracii Guns in Guns N’ Roses, a band made up of former members of Hollywood Rose and L.A. Guns.
Slash founded the supergroup Slash’s Snakepit in 1994 as tensions inside Guns N’ Roses were escalating, and he left the band in 1996 due to mounting hostilities with Axl Rose. He and singer Scott Weiland co-founded the supergroup Velvet Revolver in 2002, which brought Slash back into the limelight throughout the mid- to late 2000s. In addition to “Apocalyptic Love” (2012), “World on Fire” (2014), “Living the Dream” (2018), and “4” (2022) with Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, Slash has recorded two solo albums, “Slash” (2010) and “Orgy of the Damned” (2024), which feature a number of guest singers. In 2016, he rejoined Guns N’ Roses.
