another one of those supergroups, much like audioslave, which kinda pales in comparison to the original groups the band members came from. I do like velvet revolver more than audioslave though..... they have more of a harder rock edge.
Great band man!!! this is probably one of the best superbands since The Traveling Wilburys or Temple Of The Dog..... Slash is god on the guitar and Scott Wieland is awesome too.... along with Duff and Matt Sorum... its more or less just like GnR.... Scott was a great replacement for Axl... axl is just fat and lazy now... no way the old GnR lineup these days would out rock Velvet Revolver... Wieland is way better than axl is now
velvet revolver kicks ass I love their music it's true it does sound pretty much the same but their overall sound is awesome it's kinda the same case in a crap load of rock bands they have a style that's working for them so they stick with it but yeah vr is the shit
GO SEE THEM IN CONCERT!!!....i got to see them about a week ago and they fuckin rocked. Wieland is a great front man and even if his voice isnt what axel's is/ was (debateable) he still kicks ass. Wieland runs all over the stage, while they played sex type thing he went down into the audience in front of the stage. Slash and Duff played on opposite sides of the stage and ran past each other to opposite sides a bunch of times per song. Overall they were really good. During one of the encores they played Wish You Were Here, not pink floyd but still awsome.
i don't really care for them. But then again, I was never all that big of a GnR fan either. A couple of their albums were decent, but otherwise, eh.
