Lead single featuring Andrew Stockdale from Wolfmother. A risky strategy considering their recent form on rock. Should be interesting to hear this nonetheless. Goes for adds March 2nd.

Solid enough guitar work, as expected, but I have never cared for Stockdale as a vocalist. I'll probably pick through this album for individual tracks rather than buy the whole thing on Slash's name alone.

Weird how this is doing better than Wolfmother's New Moon Rising.

How is that weird? Slash will always be a big name, as much for the interest factor than anything.
Wolfmother is a band that's hardly established PLUS "New Moon Rising" wasn't every good, IMO and in the opinion of a lot of people I know. So even though it will have it's fans it wasn't a song that I could say I don't like but I get why others do, like Cage The Elephant.

Yeah I'm not suprised either. This is a case of pure name power pushing it top the top, if this was Wolfmother's new single it probably wouldn't get a single spin.
