Velvet Revolver

I just finished re-reading it too! Definitely a cautionary tale. Appetite has so much energy for a band out of their minds on heroin.

It was a good read, actually

The first album is worth having if you're into Slash/GnR etc. The next one was a bit samey to be honest.

Fall To Pieces is a good song and you can tell it's Slash playing straightaway.

Octahedron

I think my favourite song on the first Vr album (and one of the first drop-D riffs I ever learned because it was tabbed in an issue of total guitar back when they covered things worth reading about)... Is... SUPERHUMAN. Good song. 'Recognisably' very Slash... Heavied up and gooooood.

I really like the first one, and saw them in Manchester Apollo on (I think) their first trip to the UK. Fantastic live and Weiland had the crowd eating out of his hand. Was underwhelmed by the second record and never really spent any time with it but the first one was a belter and still gets the odd stint in the van stereo now.

Dave's work with Wasted Youth is far more interesting.
