Re: Slash Apocalytipic Love album/singles Chart positions
I wonder why they cut the GNR stuff.
Could be to save money on royalties he'd have to pay the other GNR songwriters for using the tracks, or maybe it's a marketing decision to tip the balance in favour of new material....like he thinks it's fine to have GNR tracks on one of the live discs but on both is overkill.
Re: Slash Apocalytipic Love album/singles Chart positions
Funny how "success" changed over the years. Two number 1 rock singles used to mean millions of albums sold. Now, I don't think Slash would have sold more than 100,000 copies in the US and more than 500,000 worldwide (probably it's close to its half!), although much more people saw him live on the current tour.
First, let me preface this, I mean no offense to Slash here. But back in the day when Rock music was actually popular and had a presence on the "pop" charts. Two #1 singles would lead to albums going gold and platinum. But nowadays it's damn near impossible for a rock song to have such success. Pop stars still can have limited success in selling records. Although their numbers obviously would've been much larger back in the day as well. It is what it is.
Regardless though. A great accomplishment for Slash and the boys, and a well deserved #1 song I must say. I still don't think "You're A Lie" was worthy of its ranking.

I think No More Heroes would be an awesome single single. Not for Me has great chances as well. Anastacia should be the 4th and last single. He could have 4 Number 1 spots at the Rock chart.

Standing in The Sun Number 1 now on Mainstream Rock Chart.. SO he hit number 1 on Active and Mainstream.
2 for 2 on singles.

SLASH: 'Anastasia' Video Released - Feb. 5, 2013
"Anastasia", the new video from legendary guitarist Slash's (VELVET REVOLVER, GUNS N' ROSES), can be seen below. The song comes off his second solo album, "Apocalyptic Love", which sold around 38,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 4 on The Billboard 200 chart.
Slash's self-titled debut album scored the highest new entry on The Billboard 200 chart in April 2010, with first-week U.S. sales of around 60,000 copies.
The former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist is now releasing his music through his own label, Dik Hayd Records, and The Pulse Of Radio asked him how that compares to working with major labels in the past. "It's really enabling me to make records and be able to put them out myself so I don't have to do the gamble with the big record companies," he said. "Now as far as like the glory days of the record business, that's something — yeah, I mean, you can miss it, but it's changed so much and most of the companies have turned into such conglomerates, it's pointless to really sort of miss the old days 'cause they're long gone."
Unlike Slash's solo debut, which featured different vocalists on each track and a number of guest musicians, Slash has recorded all of the new CD with his touring band, MYLES KENNEDY AND THE CONSPIRATORS.
Kennedy also sang with Slash and other former members of GUNS N' ROSES when the band was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in April 2012.
