Velvet Revolver's 2004 debut 'Contraband' proved that supergroups still were a popular concept. This record is among the finest records of the century, and it's not hard to see why.

With a personnel of Scott Weiland on vocals (Stone Temple Pilots), Slash on lead guitar (Guns N' Roses), Dave Kushner on rhythm guitar (Danzig), Matt Sorum on drums (The Cult), and Duff McKagan on bass (Guns N' Roses), you know this band's going to rock.

And 'Contraband' is just awesome. Songs like 'Sucker Train Blues,' 'Slither' and 'I Fall To Pieces' are among the best songs of the 21st century, and underrated songs like 'Big Machine' and 'Loving The Alien' are pretty great too.

Overall, if you like Guns N' Roses and/or Stone Temple Pilots, you must check out 'Contraband.' It's a superb release from a superb band.

Highly recommended. A classic. ENJOY!!!
