Steven Adler:

We need girls with tattoos for our video shoot tomorrow. If you're in the LA area, shoot us an email at adlerrocks@gmail.com for location!

UGH, really?  I can't wait to see how cheesy and cliche this thing turns out to be.

ADLER, ?THE ONE THAT YOU HATED? ? SONG REVIEW

Adler ? the namesake group of former Guns N? Roses drummer Steven Adler ? will issue their first single, ?The One That You Hated,? on iTunes on April 10.

The song title indicates Adler has certainly experienced his fair share of love and hate relationships, but make no mistake about it ? he loves being a part of this trio and is thrilled about the new single.

The song is now streaming on Revolver and as we previously reported, Adler himself hasn?t been this excited since the GnR days.

?Jacob (Bunton) is exactly the singer I have been searching for,? Steven said. ?He has an amazing range and is a great writer and frontman. Lonny (Paul) is an amazing guitarist and songwriter and the vibe is amazing.?

The song opens up with a repeated chugging of a rhythm guitar before vocalist Bunton shares some words of wisdom. ?Baby I?m too young to know any better but I guess I?m just too old to care, I?m waiting on the morning light to clear the air? he sings before the song picks up its momentum.

The rhythm continues throughout and is strongly complimented by Adler?s drumming and some perfectly timed backing vocals followed by a grandiose guitar solo. No joke ? Adler could have a serious hit on their hands with this one.

The single?s length clocks in at around three minutes, just long enough to keep you interested but short enough to keep you hungry for more. This is a strong debut and surprisingly catchy, so given the right exposure, this song could turn even the biggest haters into full-fledged fans.

7 out of 10 Ultimate Classic Rock rating.

Just bought it on Itunes and I am loving it with every listen.

Good for Steven.

Showing he isn't some "Get Lucky" drummer.

Kinda sounds a bit like Good Charlotte imo.

[Limulus]

hey, this song was -unexpected- good, cool 80s hard rock!

[serp616]

needs more cowbells 

not sure what i was expecting of this release, but it is catchy enough to have some sort of hit potential in my ears.
as long as Steven keeps his shit together he could maybe get a bit further with this project.

Who actually wrote the melodies for this song?

Unless it was Steven, I would say, yes, he was lucky again to find guys that can write melodies with a certain pop sensibility.

Just listened to the new song, kinda sounded like Kiss to me, very catchy. This could actually lead to something, is Steven can keep himself together.

Didn't make it thru the whole song, i like the one you hated much better..

[IzzyDutch]

I liked that one too, I can imagine the studio version sounding great

[D]

Liked it.

Should be a very solid album

Jacob Bunton is a GREAT singer.  The new bass player was pretty good too.  Funny, Adler looked like he was doing "Wii" drumming or something lol  Looks like a great band, so far.

I agree.  It is shot and edited very well.   Shows all of the band members off, well, too.
