Slash teases World On Fire

Slash has launched a teaser clip for the title track of his third solo album World On Fire.

He’s described the follow-up to 2012’s Apocalyptic Love as “effortless” to write, adding: “It happens very rarely – there’s a certain energy that carries the creative process, and it’s almost like you just ride that wave.”

The full World On Fire single is set to be launched on Friday. The album will be released as a Classic Rock Fanpack on September 15 – a full four weeks ahead of its regular release date. The pack includes a metal pin badge, 116-page magazine including exclusive interviews and track-by-track breakdown. Those who pre-order before August 11 will also receive a personalised giant poster.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
