Velvet Revolver Libertad Due Out May "The fist record kind of hit you over the head with a hammer," says Velvet Revolver bassist Duff McKagan. "This record is more organic." Among the standout tracks on the Brendan O'Brien-produced disc is "Messages," about 9/11 victims leaving phone messages for their loved ones. "It's not your typical love ballad," says McKagan. "It's more cerebral." Title: Re: "Libertad" mentioned in the latest issue of Rolling Stone (2/8/07 issue) Post by: Genesis on January 30, 2007, 01:39:22 AM Great, more info. A ballad too! :beer:

Though lynyrd skynyrd have some good ones.

I actually hate love ballads..... ^This is what I meant when I said "Same here", don't really want depressing songs from VR If I wanted that I'd listen to some emo crap? :) Title: Re: "Libertad" mentioned in the latest issue of Rolling Stone (2/8/07 issue) Post by: DeadHorse on January 30, 2007, 11:57:00 AM You can actually hear part of the song in VR's second vblog, and you can see some of the lyrics from Scott's song book.
It's on their offical web site. It's only a short tidbit but the melody sounds greats. Thanks for the post, DH Title: Re: "Libertad" mentioned in the latest issue of Rolling Stone (2/8/07 issue) Post by: Lethalis on January 31, 2007, 03:54:18 PM Libertad will be great.
I can feel it 8) ;D Title: Re: "Libertad" mentioned in the latest issue of Rolling Stone (2/8/07 issue) Post by: Risico on February 03, 2007, 09:07:14 PM Sounds interesting - I'll give VR this, they've definitely got me intrigued with this record... Curiosity is building!
Title: Re: "Libertad" mentioned in the latest issue of Rolling Stone (2/8/07 issue) Post by: evergreen_layne on February 03, 2007, 09:30:30 PM Yeah I'm excited to hear what they can produce without the crazy time restraints imposed by Scott's rehab. Also they're able to write more as a unit now instead of just presenting Scott with the finished product for him to sing over. I'm all for them doing slower ballad type songs but they have got to do better than "Fall to Pieces." That song was decent at best. Even live it didn't cut it.

Just listening to STP's Core and the album is absolutely superb. Scott sounds great on it. Now with Slash, Duff, Matt and Dave's songwriting and playing they should be able to make something really interesting. Contraband was rushed too much I think. |
