It's got kinda this nasty vibe, right? And it definitely has the groove. Myles: "This track, it's funny when you listen to the lyrics, you probably think it's about maybe some sort of. But once I figured it all out, it's a real simple arrangement and it's really just focused on that riff." I love the riff and the grind, and it was something that I definitely heard in my head, and it took me a while to figure out exactly what it was that I was hearing 'cause it has this sort of, more of a stomp nature to it than it actually had notes. Slash: " is one of my favorite songs on the record. And, just that you've seen throughout history, that's kind of a timeless theme that always rears its ugly head." It's basically, from a theme standpoint, about kind of that cult of personality and how that affects people. It's like, when you're trying to figure out what the first 10 were gonna be that I don't know if that was on the list, so I'm glad it made it. It's like a real proclamation because it, at actually one point, wasn't even considered as a contender, believe it or not. Myles: "This track was interesting in the sense that when I got it from Slash, the basic demo, it just grabs you right outta the gate. 'The River Is Rising' song is I'm excited to get in front of an audience and play that." But, it rocks, and I thought it would be a good track for the opening of the record. I can't even remember how it all came together, it came together really quickly. And it's something that came together in my little studio in LA, and it was just very spontaneous. Right before we went into pre-production I just made up this riff, and it turned into 'Rivers Rising,' and so it's the most written song on the record. Most of the material was written around 20. Slash: "'The River Is Rising' is the newest song that I wrote on the record. To celebrate their new album, Slash and Myles recently sat down and broke down each song on 4, including how the songs came about, and the meanings and stories behind them. Produced by Dave Cobb in Nashville, 4 follows Slash and Myles' 2018 album Living the Dream, and the new project showcases ten new songs, including previously-released tracks like "The River Is Rising," "Fill My World" and "Call off the Dogs." So that was the funny experience about this particular record, was everybody having to navigate the whole COVID experience.Slash has reunited with Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators once again as they have officially released their fourth full-length studio album, appropriately titled 4. And so I came out, and then we did the percussion and mixed the record and drove home. But I just got vaccinated, so I only had to quarantine for a few days. And then we recorded the background vocals in the guest house of the house that we were all quarantined in. He continued, “So we mixed what we had, which was a lot. And we still had to do percussion and background vocals, and so we sort of stalled.” “And then we went and recorded the whole record, and then I got a phone call from Myles in the studio when I was about to do overdubs, and he goes, ‘Man, I tested positive.’ And subsequently, two of the other guys tested positive, so they all had to go into quarantine. “The funniest story about this record was the COVID story, because we took a tour bus to Nashville to keep ourselves safe - to get there and not travel commercially,” Slash told Germany’s Radio Regenbogen (as transcribed by Blabbermouth). The Guns N’ Roses guitarist reveals in a new interview that he, Kennedy, and two of the Conspirators all were infected with COVID-19 despite purposely not traveling commercially en route to the studio. Unfortunately, that didn’t stop most of them from contracting COVID-19 during the process. Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators took extra precautions while recording their upcoming album, 4.
