Everybody looks at this as just slash’s little side project, but they’re really pumping out some awesome songs. And Myles is just unbelievable

[@rhaibi12]

GNR is more of Slash’s side project at this point. He’s spent more time doing solo stuff than he’s spent in GNR.

[@lawndart188s]

Well said

He will always be Thor from tge movie Roch Star to me .

Myles Kennedy is an underrated singer imo

[@greggendless2930]

This band is one the finest group of guys I've heard in many years and I'm seventy-one years old.

[@johnny3d962]

Myles was the absolute perfect choice for the lead singer/front man of the band. He and Slash work Amazingly well together, very satisfying!

[@Joe-fd4qo]

I don't get how Slash can be in his 50's and sound like a guy who's 23. It's amazing

[@wrenchslinger1]

He's a great guy and a damn fine musician.

[@cgkuch4184]

It's all about being humble

[@MisterSwagify]

Bassists tend to be. They just don't really get the spotlight, and most never tend to feel they need it either. Most bassists are happy being a background character, and as a result the fame usually never gets to their head.

[@marshallbrooks2296]

I’ve met him twice. Same as the drummer. Super awesome people. They’re from Canada too

[@Ricardo-go7yu]

Beyond thrilled that Slash continues to make music with Myles and The Conspirators even with the G n R reunion. They are special.

[@wilhelmtheconquerer6214]

Todd really is the perfect bassist! Like he said, the bass is the ambassador between the drums and the guitars. Pair that mentality with a great tone, great backing vocals and a great stage presence and you have everything you could ever ask for.

[@theandiller]

20:57 loved that moment from the very beginning when they first posted these videos last year. I've watched it a thousand times because I was so blown away. Myles is the reason why I went to study music and to eventually become a professional musician as well. His effortless mastery, the heart and soul he puts into the songs, the vibe, his movements - just like Elvis said, it's all dedicated to the craft! His lyric and melody writing ability not to speak of. Most amazing musician on this planet.. Most amazing.

[@Davidwv97]

I saw them live 2 times in Amsterdam and I've got to say, it really is one of the best bands of this time. Brent is a great drummer, Todd's bass playing is so spot on, Myles is a great singer and Slash just speaks for himself. They put on a great show without bs, just pure rock. And the atmosphere is great.

[@winstonvkoot]

only slash can play a mean riff while looking effortless xD

[@theandiller]

I'm coming back to this video once a day, mostly just for the vocal part at 19:30. It's so crazy, how he possesses his vocal technique, he never lacks anything, neither tone quality, pitch, overtones, placement (...) or emotions. Myles Kennedy became my greatest influence forever, in fact he's the reason I changed it all and began to study voice as well. I have never heard such an inspiring artist before.

[@drummerschmittle553]

These guys are such a chill group of guys, I’d kill to drum live with them 😂

[@useyourillusiongnr]

I'm so glad I grew up in the year 1981.. I grew up with the best music...from the 60-70 and 80's - until the 90's.. and btw, Slash, is GOD! been to 4 shows,and the reunion of GNR..he is still GOD! :D It's that simple...!!

[@MostlyElectrolytes]

So glad to see the rest of the band get some time on camera. Todd and Brent are just fantastic musicians and the whole band is just a frickin' machine. If you haven't listened to the album you should; it's phenomenal.

[@JesseClutch]

All I have to say is this album is a pure rock n roll masterpiece!

[@MrAnamalk]

I'm amazed at how underrated this album is. I guess the sounds have been done before, but every single sound on this album fits perfectly, The mixing techniques included panning the drums in a really cool way with blending and panning multiple guitars. I think Slash and Myles are a great combo as well. They are masters of their roles in the band and it seems like they don't step on eachother's feet. They are all keeping it real and I appreciate that. Myles is a much better singer than Axl IMO. They both have startlingly wide ranges for men though.

[@thesunsnameissol]

If there’s any more recent band that already deserves a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in this decade, it’s this band

I was gonna say that I like this band better. I know people are going to hate me, but Axl was sorta mean.

No drugs, private sex and ROCK ‘N ROLL! Seriously, it’s a pleasure to hear these men talking about the art they love and how hard they have to work to create the sounds of their imaginations. I loved Guns ‘n Roses (despite Axl being a douche), but I never imagined that Slash would go on to create his own “planet” with these amazingly talented musicians. He clearly has a vision of his rock and the drive to make it the very best it can be. Kudos to all of you, including young Elvis the producer. You have to have some big brass balls to be able to tell Slash “That was really good man, but don’t you think you can do it even better?”
