VIDEO: Slash interviewed by Time magazine


Slash’s newly-released sophomore album, “Apocalyptic Love,” debuted at #4 on the Billboard 200 album chart with first-week sales of approximately 38,000 copies.

Between live shows and media interviews and appearances, the guitarist continues to work hard to get the word out on his new project.

Slash recently sat down with Time magazine to discuss his past, the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame event, and the difference between his first solo album and the new one.

“[The first solo] record was what I would consider an isolated, one-off project, that’s something I think I had in the back of my mind for a while. When I finally had the opportunity to do it, I did it,” explains Slash. “What happened was I met Myles Kennedy and he sang a couple of songs, and so we did a tour to support that record, and it was during the tour that I thought I should make another record and just do it with just him.”

Slash kicks off a series of UK and European dates starting June 6 at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
