Wolfmother gets Slashed

Mon 4th May, 2009 in Local News

Mixed metaphor master Andrew Stockdale has revealed to the triple j brekkie program that Wolfmother has been jamming with Slash. The legendary Guns – œN Roses guitarist (also known as “a cancer” if you speak to Axl Rose) joined Stockdale and co. in LA’s Sunset Studios.

The frontman told triple j: “I had a guest in last night. Slash. I’m serious! We might be doing a song so we were just playing around with some ideas and stuff.”

Wolfmother’s second album (its first with the new personnel) is indeed set to be named Cosmic Egg. When speaking with triple j, Stockdale reiterated the yoga-teacher-egg-pose-genesis story he told NME recently. September is the mooted release date…with or without a Slash solo.

WTF!!!!
Wolfmother are horrible and i really am suprised and stunned that Slash would bother going into the studio with them.

Irrespective of whether you are a Wolfmother fan it would be interesting to hear the results. Slash has played and jammed with some unexpected people over the years - touring guitarist with Chic in the late 90s is one such example.

Yeah and what about J.S. Bach and his stupid wigs - he really has been letting the classical scene down since he went into hiding. No live gig in over 250 years. Pull your finger out son.

Slash hasn't ever done anything good.


Ever.

man the samurai is in your blood huh mate. So being part of the group that influenced such a wide scope of society in the late 80's early 90's was nothing?

Slash is without doubt one of the top 10 all time most influential guitarists. GNR, even though they existed in their proper form for only 6 years (87-93), managed to amass such a following that they are still a massive inspiration to young rockers even today. One of the biggest bands of the 80s and 90s by far and Slash still deserves the accolades and the enduring appeal. Additionally, the 2 VR albums were decent, particularly the debut album so to say he's done nothing good in a while is a load of bollocks.
Slash = a guitar god.

Yeah, he's not exactly a shredder... but he's defninitely one of the most influential guitarists of our time. His solo's back in the gnr days were always so tasteful and well thought out. You wouldn't say he's the best out there, but he's definitely worthy of any recognition.

I respect Slash's work on Appetite and Contraband; and his autobiog looks like an interesting read.

But yeah, he's not God.

book is interesting, but not revealing anything new. Is a good read though.
