Sebastian Bach: New Album & Guest Appearance By Axl Rose!

Sydney, AU. (Top40 Charts/ EMI MUSIC Australia) - EMI will release Sebastian Bach's new solo album 'Angel Down' on November 17, his first recording since his days fronting 90's hard rock band, Skid Row. Guns N' Roses front man, Axl Rose, features on three of the album tracks including first single '(Love Is A) Bitchslap' and a cover of the Aerosmith classic 'Back In The Saddle'.

"Bas asked me to sing on his new record, 'Angel Down', and I agreed and came down to his studio where he played me the tracks. I really liked the title/opening track, 'Angel Down', but I didn't feel that it would be right to be on that one, although, of course, it would've been cool because it's a great rip-your-head-off track!!" said Axl.

"Bas really wanted me on '(Love is) A Bitchslap, and I got to try my own ideas on it. We're not saying much about the second track, as it may be taken a bit further, and when Bas played the third track, 'Stuck Inside', he suggested a kind of call-and-answer part. They allowed me the freedom to write my own words and melodies, and although it's only a couple of lines, it really felt great. The song has such a mean riff, and Bas' guys were so supportive in so many ways on tour and fun to hang with, that it was great to be a part of something of theirs and I think it really came out strong.
For me, the three songs together are a good package. They are all different, with different approaches and styles from each other and from material I have on the upcoming GUNS N' ROSES record. For me, the timing couldn't be better and I'm quite surprised to be on one song, let alone three!!!'

Axl's 'Angel Down' tracks are his first official recordings to be released, since Guns N' Roses 1993 album, 'The Spaghetti Incident'.

The two rock icons recently toured together in Australia, with Sebastian as support for Guns N' Roses. A performance highlight was Sebastian's appearance on stage with Axl & co, for "My Michelle"
