Slash surprised me with this record! Ok this is less "rock 'n bumps into" before. Admittedly, even if its turn disconcerting pop purists, Slash composer remains a damn! Too obvious melodies? Hazardous collaborations? Nope just that Slash is an artist who plays, who listens and does not play as dirty rock. For this Slash album shows he is capable of many things and especially not lock themselves in a straitjacket. Recognize that he did not attempt to refill us yet another "Use your Illusions" or "Appetite" history of making money. The artistic honesty it is good!
