Slash has spoken to Total Guitar magazine about his upcoming second solo album, which is due for release this summer via Roadrunner and will feature Alter Bridge frontman Myles Kennedy handling all vocal duties.

“We’ve toured together for a year-and-a-half,” Slash told Total Guitar of his lineup, which includes Alter Bridge tenor Myles Kennedy on vocals and guitar, Todd Kerns playing bass and Brent Fitz on the skins.

“But we were pretty … tight even in the first month together.” Slash described their chemistry, saying, “It’s something that just happened naturally. The guys are good players and we lock in. It’s been like that ever since.”

The time is nearly upon us – when The Darkness hit the road to play for their for the upcoming UK and Ireland tour.

Announced as support for this tour is the California based – Crown Jewel Defense, who can best be described as a smorgasbord of sound.

Noticed as a force to be reckoned with by producer Elvis Baskette (Alter Bridge, Falling In Reverse, Escape the Fate) , Crown Jewel Defense, the brainchild of songwriter, lead guitarist and front man Taylor Hood, was on its way to the studio merely weeks after the first listen.
