VELVET REVOLVER drummer Matt Sorum revealed during the Camp Freddy Radio broadcast on Los Angeles' Indie 103.1 FM earlier in the month that the band has finished mixing its second album, "Libertad".
VELVET REVOLVER frontman Scott Weiland told MTV.com that the new CD "definitely still rocks, but it's incredibly more musical. There's a lot more textures, and Slash and Duff [McKagan] have really sort of risen the bar. It just goes places that the first album didn't go."
The members of VELVET REVOLVER gave the induction speech for honorees VAN HALEN during the 2007 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, which unfolded inside New York's Waldorf-Astoria hotel on March 12. VELVET REVOLVER also performed at the event in VAN HALEN's place.
