Slash signs to Roadrunner records and announces Imminent Release of his debut solo album, “Slash”... Roadrunner Records are very pleased to announce the signing of legendary guitarist Slash (live photos) for the forthcoming European release of his debut solo album, “Slash”, in Spring 2010.

Slash is one of the most iconic musicians of all time. His song writing, playing and performing through Guns N Roses, Slash’s Snakepit, Velvet Revolver (live review) and a host of collaborations and guest appearances has inspired and entertained millions worldwide. Since exploding onto the music scene in 1987 with Guns N’ Roses “Appetite For Destruction”, still the fastest selling debut album of all time, Slash has become one of the best loved and critically acclaimed guitarists of his generation. Time magazine, as recently as August 2009, named Slash as # 2 on the list of 10 Best Electric Guitar Players of All Time.

Slash’s debut solo album will see him collaborating with some of the world’s most vital contemporary artists – from the rock world and beyond. This album is set to become an essential release…

Founded in 1980, Roadrunner Records is currently the world’s leading rock label with artists such as Nickleback, Slipknot and Machine Head.

“Slash” will also see Roadrunner Records enter into a unique and innovative association with a U.K. media partner – the special-interest media group, Future. In a brand new concept in record distribution the standard album release will be preceded by a “fan pack”, in which the Roadrunner Records album will be bundled together with a highly-collectable special issue of Future Publishing’s Classic Rock magazine dedicated to Slash’s career. This will be the first format of the album available anywhere in the world.


The partnership of Slash and Roadrunner Records promises to deliver one of the albums of 2010.
