The album is comprised of songs that walk a perfect line between the sweet and bitter, and the sentimental and cynical, and is perfectly bookended by [...]

Now, on to Slash news. Apparently he’s set to write his autobiography with the help of ghost writer Anthony Bozza. Although the words ‘Slash’ and ‘memoires’ probably [...]
