Living The Dream is the latest release from iconic American guitarist Slash, of Guns N Roses, Velvet Revolver, Slash’s Snakepit, and others. This is the first new music from Slash in 4 years, and comes under the banner of Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators. Kennedy is widely regarded as one of the top rock vocalists in the world right now, and his main project, Alterbridge, is considered one of the top rock acts as well. Slash debuted 5 of of the 12 new tracks at a special live performance 9/11/2018 at the legendary Whiskey A Go Go in LA. The show was broadcast 9/21 on Sirius XM to coincide with the full album release date.

The record is very well done. Classic Slash sleazy Blues Rock, The first single “Driving Rain”, has a very “Life In The Fast Lane” (Eagles) vibe. Kennedy’s voice is stellar, and the vocal harmonies are on point throughout the album. If you are a fan of Slash, Kennedy, and/or their previous collaborations as Conspirators or other works together, Living The Dream is a definite must listen. “The One You Loved Is Gone” is a definite standout, conveying a depth of emotion not often heard in Rock. Classic Bluesy Rock. Classic Slash. Classic Myles Kennedy, and just a great record.

    Stevie was a reviewer here at Metal Express Radio. He is currently the lead guitarist for Melodic Rock band Red Reign, based in Richmond, Virginia, USA. Red Reign toured with Tesla in 2017, and shared the stage with Dokken, FireHouse, Lita Ford, Kix, Quiet Riot, and others at various dates around the US in 2018. Stevie heard his first KISS record at the age of 6 and was immediately hooked on Rock and Roll guitar. Over the course of years his tastes evolved, graduating from KISS to Ozzy and Van Halen; and then into Hair Metal. Over time, harder and faster music drew him. Bands like Metallica, Pantera, and Anthrax led the way, and Killswitch Engage took him over the top. Stevie has a deep passion for the guitar, not only playing them, but building them as well.
