VELVET REVOLVER Manager Says Band 'Asked' To Be Released From RCA
- Nov. 25, 2008
|
|
|
The following press release has been issued by VELVET REVOLVER's publicist:
Finding the new lead singer for VELVET REVOLVER is a formidable task, and the remaining members knew this would be the case when they dismissed their former singer, Scott Weiland. So in June 2008, Slash, Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum and Dave Kushner approached RCA Records and asked to be released from their recording contract, as they felt they needed to have complete freedom to go through whatever process it would take to accomplish the goal…freedom from any timelines, pressures, influences or interests other than finding THE best guy. RCA Records honored the band's request.
Carl Stubner, the band's manager, says: "We're incredibly grateful to RCA and Ashley Newton for their passion and hard work and for the success they achieved with VELVET REVOLVER through the band's first two records. The band is thankful that RCA understood the task at hand and has allowed the band to continue on their own." Stubner added: "This band is comprised of some of the greatest rock musicians of the past three decades. They have built a brand with a solid foundation on a global level. And their sole focus has been, and continues to be, finding the singer/songwriter who will stand alongside them."

They really should pick Peter Criss as their new singer. What a perfect group that would make.

and all stuff from 3 years ago, and don't matter today.
SCOTT WEILAND CD-
is sounding damn good, i hear some nods to Bowie, Beatles... Cant go wrong there.
&
Better than nods to T-pain, kayea west(however ya spell)
tho i did hear some hip-hot beats on one song haha.
melon used to think because i didnt like rap music ,
that I hated the black race... but that was a shortcut to thinking on his part.
im not a hugh fan of seafood either,
but I will still eat the hell outta some pu**y

"crash"
there for a sec. reminds me of Billy Idol at first...I swear any other fan notice?
wait only haters here...nevermind then;-(
Start the Weiland song Crash
&
the Billy Idol song "the Dead Next Door"
kinda sounds the same for a sec.
but
then
the Weiland song turns more into a U2-ish sounding tune.
still a billion times better than t-pain
i hate t-pain
but
I LOVE OBAMA

sounds like it could have been on "12 bar blues"
got some bongos kicking on this one...
call Scott a druggie, and gay , and say he sounds like Bowie
and any other hate name
but
cant call him one sided or one dimensional...
this album is all over the map like CHI.-DEM.

Now when i say that ,^
Dont go having a pissy sh*t fit
&
don't go crying and hating and say =
"blah blah he wants to be pink Floyd...blah blah he's ripping"
i am sure that Scott loves Pink Floyd like the next guy... So- with that influence comes a nod.
not a negative,
but
a nod...
you give the negatives,
Scott gives the nods.
You sit and bash & hate on a computer,
Scott makes CDs
speaking of computer IRONIC!
this song was called ...
"Pictures & computers(im not Superman)"...
it got kinda Beatles "White Album-ish"
