Slash says more new Guns N’ Roses music is coming

Slash has revealed that there is more new music from Guns N’ Roses on the way soon – and some fresh tracks could arrive before they begin their next stint of shows.The band released two new singles last year in ‘Absurd’ and ‘Hard Skool’, with both tracks stemming from the sessions for the infamous ‘Chinese Democracy’ album.The guitarist has explained that those tracks weren’t the only pieces of new material the band had been planning to release. “There is new material coming — everybody’s always asking,” Slash told Consequence of Sound. “I would imagine that there will be one or two songs that come out around the time that we hit the road in June.”Speaking about playing and touring with GN’R – and frontman Axl Rose – again, he added: “It’s been great.

We got back together and it was really sort of like one of those huge question marks, and it was only to do the Coachella festivals, really.

And it just snowballed into this tour that’s really been sort of going ever since then.“But we’ve had a blast doing it, and I’m really happy that finally after all those years of negativity and whatnot, that we got past all that, and managed to get together and go out and play.”This isn’t the first time Slash has spoken about the possibility of more new Guns N’ Roses music.

Last month, the guitarist explained that the band would “probably keep putting” out “material that’s been sitting around for a while” until they had released a whole record’s worth.“As far as new Guns is concerned, we haven’t even gotten to that point of really in earnest sitting down and writing,” he said, but added that the process of going through previously unreleased tracks was “cool”.
