Roadrunner Records Europe has announced the signing of legendary guitarist Slash for the forthcoming European release of his debut solo album, “Slash,” in Spring 2010.

Slash is one of the most iconic musicians of all time. His song writing, playing and performing through Guns N Roses, Slash’s Snakepit, Velvet Revolver and a host of collaborations and guest appearances has inspired and entertained millions worldwide. Since exploding onto the music scene in 1987 with Guns N’ Roses “Appetite For Destruction,” still the fastest selling debut album of all time, Slash has become one of the best loved and critically acclaimed guitarists of his generation. Time magazine, as recently as August 2009, named Slash as #2 on the list of 10 Best Electric Guitar Players of All Time.

Slash’s debut solo album will see him collaborating with some of the world’s most vital contemporary artists – from the rock world and beyond. The album is set to become an essential release.
