Re: SLASH: New Album Release Date Announced
Generally I like slash's rock art, although this one is a little hippy looking for me...but I don't have a problem with it - I think it suits his style of music.
He makes 70s style guitar rock but with a modern edge so to me there's no shame in having the artwork match it.
I'm pumped for this now. Seeing the title sort of makes it all the more real.
Re: SLASH: New Album Release Date Announced
Album art on Slash I was better, and I prefer the title "Slash II" better than the lame on on there.
But very cool to see Slash trying to make it a band with "SLASH feat. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators".
And I also agree that None of GN'R have ever really had great album covers. The best one any of them were ever apart of was the original Appetite cover. That one I LOVED. The rest... maybe honorable mention to UYI2, but none of them ever were really all that great.
Slash I was probably the best cover art he was ever apart of, aside from AFD-original.

Seriously? I get the controversial appeal to the original AFD cover but it's cheesey as hell. I'm glad they moved to the inside sleave. I honestly think the AFD cross cover, LIES and both Illusion covers are absolute classic and all look awesome. Distinct in every way and unique in every way.
AFD - It's simple yet classic. It's clearly 80's rock but doesn't scream 80's hair band cheese. It's just perfect I think. Plus I liek hwo the band memebsr are on the front but not in a cheesey charicature type way even though it is... ya know?
LIES - I remember older kids walking around with full print LIES shirts at school untill they were banned because of the girl. I always loved how the cover complimeted the title. A tabloid style cover to an album titled LIES. Perfect.
Use Your Illusions - Flat out the covers envoke the feeling of the album titles possbily better than any album cover & album title combo ever. Use Your Illusion is a great album title and the covers suggest something epic and loaded with substance.
TSI - meh. Stupid cover, stupid album title.
CD - It's ok but whatever. I always pictured it was gonna be white with red. I was way off
As for Slash's album covers they are always cheesey.
