    Apocalyptic Love is my new favourite album to work out to. Especially if I visualize Myles' abs :lol::lol:

    Is this album worth picking up right now or should I just spend my money on a Mayfield Four album instead?

    By album I'm thinking you mean LP, right? I would say pick up Mayfield Four, since I think those will become harder to find later on but this should be readily available. Or at least more affordable :)

    Okay, I'm officially changing this thread to Slash + Myles Kennedy. I don't care that it's technically Slash's "solo" album. F it :mrgreen::mrgreen:

    I might have to dig out my picture I had taken with Myles when I met him a few years ago, make all you ladies jealous!

    Seriously though, the guy is so humble, almost to a fault - with a voice like that he could easily get away with being an arrogant prick.

    Trying REALLY hard not to objectify Myles since he's so frigging talented but I can't help it. Talented, smoking, and NICE???

    Doesn't help that the more I read about him, the more I like him, seems like a downright nice, humble guy. I mean, even Slash is in love with him! Every Slash interview I've read about Apocalyptic Love has him gushing about Myles.

    In another few days, this might turn into the Slash + Myles + Todd thread :mrgreen: Quick, chime in about the music before I get carried away!

    By just snippets that I've heard the new album sounds ok but not what I was expecting. To me it seems like Myles wrote lyrics more to fit the songs that Slash had wrote. Still sounds like a good album not as good as I had thought, but can't wait to heat none the less!

    You can listen to it here and judge for yourself :D

    Slash wrote riffs, sent them to Myles then Myles layered in melody and lyrics. Then Slash worked on the songs with Todd and Brent while Myles was touring with Alter Bridge then he joined them to finish the songs. Something like that. So I suppose nothing originated from Myles but he certainly had a significant amount of influence.

    that whole show was something special! except for the drunk/special lady ruining most of the recordings with her out of tune loud singing.... As much as I love that myles is getting more exposure with slash... its also put his solo album on the bottom of his list of things to do... :(

    Amazing show last night, straight up rock and roll does not get any better than this. It puts Axl's touring circus to shame!

    I forgot you were going too! Really good show, I kind of prefer Myles playing with Slash than in Alter Bridge at this point - he seems a lot more into it.

    I don't know about that face - they are so different. The size of the venue makes a difference too (I only saw AB at Wembley Arena - never in a smallish venue).

    I've seen AB in all sorts of venues, don't get me wrong they've always been stellar live, but I think there are times when he seems to be coasting a bit. I think when he performs with Slash he knows the expectations are higher.
