Slash: "I just wrote the way that I normally write, but I sort of made allowances for taking things an extra step, just ‘cause I know him. So I built up this arsenal of material and I kept sending it to Myles, and Myles was doing whatever it was that he wanted to do with it; that’s the way it went while we were touring. Then we came home and I started working the songs up with Brent (Fitz, drummer) and Todd (Kerns, bassist), and Myles had written stuff on the road while he was in Alter Bridge. He was sending me that stuff and we basically had complete creative license; a chemistry and a certain amount of freedom, so I can just do whatever it is that I feel I want to do and it’s not restricted. So the album hits a lot of different styles; we have real straight-ahead hard rock songs, and we have what I would call six-minute long journeys, all kinds of stuff and it’s all aggressive or heavy in its own way, but it really hits a lot of different moods. We’ve recorded three songs and we’re going to start recording the rest of the record in December. I’m really excited about the way – I don’t know how to explain it, but it does a lot of different stuff and it invokes a lot of different feelings. It’s very honest and very musical, and we’re performing it live so it’s got that certain urgency to it. It’s just cool.”
Myles: ""Part of the reason I got into drugs was that I felt my well was dry as a writer. As silly as it sounds, they helped me creatively and gave me something to write about. The problem was, once I dipped my toe in, I discovered that they were fun. It was a weird, dark and strange period.
"That's a long way behind me now. But now that I'm working on the Slash record, a lot of the lyrics are about those days. It's still quite fresh in my mind, but I wouldn't let myself get into a situation where there's temptation. I have a wife who would never put up with me going there."
Le 26 Novembre: Todd Kerns déclare que l'album sortira en Mai 2012.
Le 30 Novembre: "Bad Rain est une chanson sexy en drop D que j'ai enregistré avec une Basse 8 cordes et sur laquelle je beugle avec Myles. Standing in the Sun est pour le moment ma favorite des 3 et si vous écoutez Halo, soyez sur d'avoir une assurance habitation parceque ça va vous défoncer le toit de votre maison!"
