Ladies and Gentleman, MusicRant is pleased to welcome…….. VELVET REVOLVER!!!!
While their first effort was just north of disappointing, the super group’s sophomore release showcases a band of amigos hitting their collective musical stride. Like a caterpillar turning into a beautiful butterfly in Spring, the metamorphosis is complete: Less of Guns N Roses reincarnated as an STP tribute band, and more of just plain ol’ Velvet Revolver.
Simply stated, “Libertad” treats the listening public to a cohesive set of slinky, sleazy rock and roll offerings that would make Axl Rose’s dreads curl.
Single serving highlights include:
-Let it Roll
-She Builds Quick Machines
-Pills, Demons & ETC.
-Mary Mary
-Gravedancer
Note to Slash fans: The cat in the hat guitarist sounds great as usual, but unfortunately there simply isn’t enough.
Note to Slash: WE WANT MORE SOLOS!!! (or it’s coal in the stocking this year bub)
Sincerely,
Santa
