VELVET REVOLVER To Release 'Libertad' In July - Apr. 17, 2007

Jonathan Cohen of Billboard.com reports: After scrapping the original May 29 release date, VELVET REVOLVER has settled on July 3 to unveil its second RCA album, "Libertad" (artwork). Impacting in mid-May, the first single from the set will be "She Builds Quick Machines", one of the four new tracks the group has been playing of late during shows in South America.

"RCA did a bunch of research on what the first single should be," bassist Duff McKagan told Billboard.com last night (April 16) before a gig in Buenos Aires. "I'm pretty anti that stuff. The band had something they wanted to go with, but RCA just kept coming with it. So we decided, it's fine. It's a great f*ckin' rock song. It has a kick-ass guitar riff, a great chorus, a really big bridge and a great Slash solo."

McKagan is also high on "Last Fight", which he calls "a mid-tempo, really beautiful song; probably something you wouldn't expect from us," as well as "She Mine", described as "a fun pop ditty."

	I think the cover rocks - certainly a lot better than some of the other shit that passes for album artwork by bands covered on this site....

	COMMENT \| Great cover posted by : NovembersDirge 4/17/2007 5:34:07 PM

	why does everyone think 'gnr' is a great band.they out one good record (appetite) and everything else they did sucks.everything.the world is filled with too many stupid people.

	COMMENT \| Cool Cover posted by : Acekicken 4/17/2007 7:47:18 PM

	If they had a diffent singer. I would buy it.

	COMMENT \| Killer front cover posted by : Zonetripper 4/17/2007 9:50:59 PM

	I can't wait to hear this, it's gonna rock. Scott Weiland is a lot better than Axl Rose, aka Sylvester the Cat with his tail stuck in a mousetrap.

	COMMENT \| Gnr=Good music (apart from the ballads), shitty vocals posted by : Zonetripper 4/17/2007 9:52:32 PM

	and revolting rockstar attitude by the vocalist. I never bought a Gnr cd and never will, but I like VR. They're like Gnr without Axl and without pompous ridiculous "November Rain" kinda shit, so I like them.

	COMMENT \| VR ROCKS , CAN'T WAIT FOR JULY posted by : RiotAct666 4/17/2007 10:09:36 PM

	The cover is cool.

	horrible show in santiago, Bad Religion made Velvet Revolver look like a School band.

	I heard GNR's "Better" on my local radio station 4-5 days ago. Does anyone know if there's a solid release date for Chinese Democracy?
