An eight-minute video interview with VELVET REVOLVER frontman Scott Weiland and drummer Matt Sorum, which aired on June 6 on Canada's "The Hour", is available for viewing at this location.

The German branch of Sony BMG has uploaded audio samples of three of the tracks that are featured on VELVET REVOLVER's European EP, "Melody and the Tyranny", which was released on June 1. The EP contains two tracks from the band's new CD, "Libertad", as well as TALKING HEADS cover "Psycho Killer" (which was recorded during the "Libertad" sessions) and a video documentary about the making of "Libertad".

"Libertad" will be released on July 3 in two formats: a CD version, which will also include the documentary, and a CD/DVD version, which will feature a bonus DVD with a 30-minute documentary about the 2007 South American tour.

VELVET REVOLVER and ALICE IN CHAINS will team up for a North American tour beginning early August.
