[quote] Velvet Revolver has decided to take a little time off from writing for its new album to play a few shows. But drummer Matt Sorum told ABC Radio's ePrep they're on track to have the CD in stores in the spring. No producer has been chosen at this point, but the band has been speaking with Rick Rubin (Audioslave, Red Hot Chili Peppers, System Of A Down, Slayer, Slipknot), hoping to get him to come on board for the project, reports Blabbermouth.net.
"We've been talking to Rick Rubin," Sorum revealed. "So hopefully he's gonna come on board, because I think he's just a great song guy. And his advice to us, which was great advice, was, 'Write as many songs as possible.' He's listened to a lot of our riffs and different parts that we have. He's a very honest guy, and even if he doesn't produce us, he's given us a good sense of what we need to go for, and that's just great songs."
The working title for the disk remains "Libertad", although Sorum dismisses Scott Weiland's statements that it will be a concept record.
"You know, Scott said something about a concept album," Sorum told ABC Radio's ePrep. "But you know, the concept is let's get it done, you know what I mean? (laughs)"
Velvet Revolver's 2004 debut, "Contraband", was certified double-platinum for sales in excess of two million copies in the United States. [/quote]
Sounds like something's happening, but nothing is carved in stone. |
