A new album for famous rock band Guns N' Roses is confirmed to be in the works.
While the official release date of the album has yet to be announced, it's been highly speculated that it will either come this year or next year.
Eitherway, band guitarist, Richard Fortus revealed in his interview with Loud Wire that they are already working on the new album and they are using former guitarist Slash's recordings as their inspiration for the new tracks.
"A lot of the new stuff that we've been working on; some of the stuff come[s] from nothing and some of the stuff is stuff that we've been working on that were ideas that were already there," Forus said. "Some of the stuff Slash did - it was the beginning of the seed of the song that's been around for a while."
To further excite fans, Guns 'N Roses also revealed that everything is already prepared and that they have more than enough tracks for the new album that could be used for more than one record.
"There's so much stuff that's recorded, there's so much stuff that was done," Forus admitted. "I mean, there's three albums worth of material, easy ... Axl is very secretive. He doesn't want stuff getting out. He wants to create stuff and then release it when it's ready. He's also a bit of a perfectionist, as you can imagine."
And as for a Guns 'N Roses tour, DJ Ashba in an interview last year, confirmed that the band will be touring this year.
"We are planning on doing quite a bit of touring this coming year," Ashba said. "The focus is getting in a studio and putting together what we all feel is the best Guns N' Roses record. Lack of material is not an issue. We have tons of stuff."
