VELVET REVOLVER Contraband Album Review:
Ah, Contraband, the chaotic lovechild of rock royalty. With Slash on guitar, Duff McKagan on bass, and Scott Weiland on vocals, this supergroup serves up a dose of raw energy and cheeky swagger that's oh so irresistible.
From the moment the opening riff of "Sucker Train Blues" kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Weiland's gravelly vocals dance around the thunderous drums and blistering guitar solos, creating a cacophony that's as intoxicating as it is exhilarating.
Tracks like "Fall to Pieces" and "Dirty Little Thing" showcase the band's knack for crafting anthemic rock songs with a hint of grit. But it's on slower burners like "Loving the Alien" where the band truly shines, revealing a vulnerable side that adds depth to their hard-rocking image.
Sure, the lyrics may veer into cliche territory at times, but when the music is this infectious, who cares? Contraband is a non-stop thrill ride that's impossible to resist. So grab a leather jacket, crank up the volume, and let Velvet Revolver take you on a wild journey through the grit and glamour of rock 'n' roll.
Rating: 8.5/10.
