![]() And McKagan’s personality and voice shine throughout. Standout Red Envelopes traces the path from fetus to juvenile delinquent with buzz saw guitars, swinging horns, and punkish chorus slogan the blood is on your hands. And its impossible not to smile when Angell finally serves the boy up for adolescence: Hes gonna put on his headphones to drown out the noise/ Because rock n roll is the only escape for forgotten teenage boys. Amen, brother. At this stage The Pink Slips have just one release to their name their debut EP Say L’or Venus but those six tracks evoke the classic punk and new wave bands from the ’70s and ‘80s, whilst at the same time displaying their own teenage love of modern pop music. When Angell soulfully croons, I was born with bloodshot eyes and a broken heart, it could just as easily be a young man in Verona as Seattle. Jamie Brooks, Duff McKagan and Grace McKagan attend CBGB Music & Film Festival 2013 - New York Debut Of Pink Slips Featuring Grace McKagan And Jamie. However, after releasing their latest single named Miles Away, 23-year-old star Grace McKagan has decided to part ways with the crew to focus on her own career.

Its a record that largely eschews typical hard rock fare, opting instead for a blues rock that slinks and wafts as much as it crunches and blusters. Seattle’s WALKING PAPERS, featuring Jefferson Angell (THE MISSIONARY POSITION), Benjamin Anderson (THE MISSIONARY POSITION), Duff McKagan (GUNS N’ ROSES, VELVET REVOLVER) and Barrett Martin (SCREAMING TREES, MAD SEASON), will release its second album, WP2, on Januvia Loud & Proud Records. Odd that a band catching positive ink as a hard rock super group would open the first entry in their discography with a relative whisper. Tonight the stars will burn out, softly promises Jeff Angell on the subdued, slow-burning ∺lready Dead.
