From Jeff Rouse:

Thank you Terry Date and my genius bandmates! 11 F**cking days of tracking and it looks like we have ourselves a new LOADED record! YES!

Now THAT is some quick recording!

I wonder what this means for Loaded:

Adam Lambert Introduces New Drummer Isaac Carpenter

Adam Lambert fans might have noticed a new drummer on stage over the last few shows. With the departure of drummer Longineu Parsons III (who returned to his original band Yellowcard) near the end of the regular US leg of the Glam Nation tour, Lambert welcomed veteran skins-man Isaac Carpenter to the fold as his new beat keeper. Carpenter, who has played drums for former Guns N? Roses member Duff McKagan's band LOADED, Liz Phair, David Cook and Blind Melon?s Travis Warren, will get most of his workout during the European, Australian and Asian Glam Nation tour dates.

I just bought Sick last week, it's growing on me a little-it's about what I thought, more of a punk feel-I can take or leave Duff's voice for singing, the track the bassist sings on is really good-like I said, not bad.

Sick is a pretty great straight-ahead rock album, with a bit of a punk feel.
Still one of my favourite albums to come out from the year it was released.

Really looking forward to the new one!

Tonight for the Cockfight I got to premiere the new LOADED track from Duff McKagan and LOADED! It?s called ?We Win? and in fact it did just that, defeating Default?s ?Turn It On?.

Here is some other news on LOADED!!!!

Duff and the guys have been making a new record with Terry Date.

Duff got one of the new tracks, ?We Win,? to the Hawks and they?ve been playing it at each home game, before that game and at half time.

They?ve invited the band to play half time at the November 7th game.

That date also happens to be Veteran?s Appreciation Day game.

They are going to play We Win and a song that was inspired partially by the wounded Vets called ?Fight On.?

They are also going to have a link to buy ?Fight On? on the Hawk?s site with a portion of the proceeds going to the VA Hospital of Puget Sound.

Cool hun!

I just heard "We Win" on that KISW radio show.  The chorus is pretty good, but I don't really care for the song, TBH.  I'm still glad that it is getting a lot of exposure at sports games, because it is good in that context. 

[metallex78]

I've heard it too.
Not bad, sounds like Loaded channeling Foo Fighters. A bit like a cross between In Your Honour and My Hero, with a Loaded twist.

Look forward to hearing more!

DUFF MCKAGAN Supporting Veterans Through His Music - Nov. 4, 2010

VA Puget Sound Health Care System and rock and roll legend Duff McKagan are teaming up to serve those who served. McKagan's band LOADED will share proceeds from the songs "Fight On" and "We Win" to benefit the general patient fund. LOADED will perform the songs at the Seattle Seahawks game on November 7. The game is also the Seattle Seahawks Military and Veterans Appreciation Day and this performance is perfectly matched with the other events planned that day.

"Fight On" was inspired by the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces and overcoming adversity after coming home from war. LOADED will play several songs at halftime of the November 7 game against the New York Giants, including "We Win", which has already been featured during Seahawks games this season, locally on KISW as well as during the broadcast of the MLB World Series.

The VA Puget Sound Patient Fund is used in many ways and for whatever is the greatest need at the time. The fund supports many services at the hospital including the marrow transplant unit, equipment for physical rehabilitation, spinal-cord injury unit, homeless veteran program and more.

A native and resident of Seattle, McKagan helped form the legendary rock and roll group GUNS N' ROSES in Los Angeles in 1985. They went on to sell more than 100 million albums worldwide. McKagan is currently a member of VELVET REVOLVER in addition to fronting LOADED. "We Win" and "Fight On" will both be released with the newest LOADED album, due in March 2011 via Eagle Rock Entertainment. McKagan also writes a twice-weekly column on music and culture for Seattle Weekly.

LOADED's new album was recorded at a Seattle-area studio with veteran rock producer Terry Date (SOUNDGARDEN, PANTERA, DEFTONES).

The band parted ways with Century Media Records after releasing one EP (2008's "Wasted Heart") and one full-length album (2009's "Sick") through the label.
