Slash im Interview
- VF.DE:
- Your addiction to alcohol and drugs – which played a huge role in your life – belongs to the past now…
- Slash:
- Yes. I got fed up with all the stopping and starting and stopping. I’m bored with it.
- VF.DE:
- You seem to be bored quite easily.
- Slash:
- I think my whole existence has been a struggle with boredom.
- VF.DE:
- What are your next plans?
- Slash:
- We’re still looking for a new singer for my band Velvet Revolver which we are pretty diligent about, because we don’t want to make any compromises this time around. And I’m working on my solo record and a couple of other things which I’m quiet about.
- VF.DE:
- Thank you for the conversation.
- Slash:
- You are welcome. I'm still thinking about the question regarding "Appetite for Destruction“ ...
- VF.DE:
- Why?
- Slash:
- The artists used to have something to say. But now everybody’s conforming to the industry standards. There’s nothing rebellious about it, there are no real statements, not even political ones. They’re just trying to be famous. So I don’t see a lot of artists coming out of this. But there are artists out there and eventually they are going to take over again. Things will change dramatically. It takes all this negative energy to build up, before anything happens.
