Slash has officially pulled back the curtain on what’s next for Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators — and for fans of the project, the news is big, clear, and very real: the next album is done.
In a recent interview with 93.3 WMMR’s Brent Porche, Slash confirmed that the band has completed mixing and sequencing for their upcoming studio record, calling it nothing less than “a killer record.” While the music itself is finished, its release is intentionally being delayed, with the album now targeted for January 2027.
The delay isn’t about uncertainty or creative indecision — it’s purely logistical. Slash explained that the album’s release window is tied to the Guns N’ Roses touring cycle, which is expected to run through late 2026. Rather than overlap major commitments and dilute focus, the decision was made to hold the Conspirators album until GNR’s schedule fully wraps.
In short: the music is ready, but timing is everything.
This upcoming release will mark the band’s fifth full-length studio album, following World on Fire (2014), Living the Dream (2018), and 4 (2022). According to Slash and Myles Kennedy, the band stayed true to its core identity — riff-heavy, melodic, hard-driving rock — without trying to reinvent the wheel.
Myles Kennedy previously confirmed that:
- All tracks were fully recorded
- Vocals were completed
- The band leaned into its established chemistry rather than chasing trends
That consistency has been a defining strength of the project, which exists as a distinct creative outlet separate from both Guns N’ Roses and Alter Bridge.
Perhaps the most exciting tease came when Slash confirmed that a full world tour is planned once the album is released. While no dates or regions have been announced yet, the statement makes it clear this won’t be a low-key rollout — the band intends to hit the road hard once 2027 arrives.
Given the group’s track record, fans can likely expect:
- Extended international touring
- Setlists blending new material with fan favorites
- A return to the tight, high-energy live shows the band has become known for
For Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, this album represents continuity, confidence, and momentum. Five records deep, the band is no longer viewed as a side project — it’s a fully realized, long-term collaboration with its own sound and loyal fanbase.
The wait may stretch into 2027, but the message from Slash is unmistakable:
the album is finished, the band is locked in, and when it finally drops, it won’t arrive quietly.
