VELVET REVOLVER: Video Footage From Recording Studio Posted Online

January 20, 2007

A two-minute video clip of VELVET REVOLVER laying down tracks on their first day in the recording studio for their upcoming second album, tentatively titled "Libertad", has been posted online at YouTube.com.

VELVET REVOLVER lead singer Scott Weiland recently told Launch Radio Networks the group has gotten "pretty far" since entering the studio. "We've been here at the old A&M studios (in Los Angeles) for about two-and-a-half weeks and we've recorded all basic tracks and we've already started guitar overdubs and we've done, I've cut a bunch of vocals on numerous songs. In two-and-a-half weeks," he said.

The group is recording with producer Brendan O'Brien, who's worked with AUDIOSLAVE, PEARL JAM and Weiland's former group, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS. An initial stint with producer Rick Rubin did not work out.

VELVET REVOLVER hopes to release "Libertad" in late April or early May. Weiland is also working on his second solo album, which he said will surface sometime in 2008 on his own label, Softdrive Records.
