It's finally here. The return of good ol' rock n roll. And nobody plays the rock-revival sound better then the all-new supergroup Velvet Revolver. Formed by ex-GNR and STP members, this new group plays hard, sleazy rock n' roll like it was still 1989. It adds elements of music from both aforementioned bands, as well as other artists like David Bowie, or Metallica. You may have heard the smash single 'Slither' on the radio, but just a word of warning: 'Slither' is not the best song on the CD. What seemed to me the ultimate hard rock song now seems almost mediocre compared to the other masterpieces on this album. The best songs are'Dirty Little Thing', the power ballad "Fall To Pieces', and 'Suckertrain Blues'. As for the explicit lyrics sticker, there really is isn't THAT much offensive content. Most of it is in 'Do It For The Kids', another standout track. This is one of the greatest heavy metal/hard rock CDs ever recorded. Let your hair grow long, and start playing those guitar solos again, 'cause 80's metal is back full force.
