I absolutely love VR...this CD kicks ass and I can't get enough of it. I wish more bands would put out that kind of high energy straight forward rock n roll and start another 80's-like hard rock revolution. Billy Idol's new album should be a rocker as well as Judas Priest's new CD out Mar. 1st. This kind of stuff breathes new life into me and I hope the trend continues.

they really do rock... that singer is so versatile, he impressed me alot... although i remember first hearing that cd and expecting it to be as good as g'n'r albums... it was sort of a let down for me... but since has grown on me...

btw did that happen to anyone else?... i was expecting like a super duper gigantic hit album and it didnt really end up as huge as i thought

i love the chemistry they have as a band. great combination. slash's playing also seems have to have become slightly more heavier more groovy hehe.. still just as great!

I couldn't agree with your more about the heavy and groovy sound coming from Slash since VR started. He's awsome.

Velvet Revolver kick arse. I saw them live and they just rule, no modern band comes even close.
