Guns N' Roses has been working on their first new album with guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan since 1993 "The Spaghetti Incident?" for a few years now. Though it looks like that wait might finally come to an end in 2021.
According to Slash in an interview with Cleveland.com, both Guns N' Roses and Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators are trying to get some new music out next year. This lines up with Slash saying back in July that the band was working on new material during quarantine.
"We did a week of initial pre-production, and there's 20 songs and we're gonna start back up next year," he said. "I spent a lot of time writing and demoing that stuff. And prior to that, Duff and I did some jamming and we also worked on the Guns record, and I've had a couple of ancillary recordings and jams on top of that, so there's been a lot of stuff going on. I'm really not good at slowing down and just sitting around."
"I would like to think that we'd have some new stuff out next year — from both camps, I guess. It's hard to say, but I would like to think we'll have stuff out next year, yeah."
Other than Slash, last we heard about a Guns N' Roses record was from Susan Holmes McKagan, wife of bassist Duff McKagan, who said "I've heard bits and bobs and it's pretty epic."
