“Living The Dream” was released in September via Slash‘s own label Snakepit Records, in partnership with Roadrunner Records.

“Living The Dream” is Slash‘s fourth solo album, and third with Slash and his bandmates Myles Kennedy (vocals), Brent Fitz (drums), Todd Kerns (bass and vocals) and Frank Sidoris (guitar and vocals). The artwork was created by renowned visual artist Ron English.

“It’s a natural progression from ‘World On Fire’, for sure,” Slash said of the new album. “I think it has a little more diversity — some of the ideas are not really what I would consider to be predictable.” At the same time, he adds, “The record is also a bit more structured, with songs that are shorter and more to the point than last time.” Kennedy concurred. “I don’t know that there are as many of those sort of ‘epic sonic journeys’ that we took on the last record,” he said. “Although there are songs that take you on a trip, like ‘Lost Inside The Girl’. But overall, a lot of these songs — things like ‘My Antidote’, ‘Read Between The Lines’, ‘Slow Grind’ — they’re pretty precise statements, and they definitely fall in line with the type of sound we’re known for. There’s a certain type of sonic calling card that we’ve developed over the years, and you can hear it front and center on this record.”

“It’s just a snapshot of where we’re at,” Slash continued, summing up “Living The Dream”. “Which is what we’re going for with each new album — to be present in what we’re doing and come up with something that is representative of and reflects this moment in time.”
