Eagle Rock Entertainment, through its Armoury Records subsidiary, will re-release DUFF MCKAGAN'S LOADED's second album, "Sick", as a special edition on May 24. The specially-packaged double-disc comes complete with two additional bonus tracks on the CD — "Roll Away" and an acoustic version of "Wasted Heart" — plus a 94-minute bonus DVD featuring the band in full force from The Garage in 2008 Glasgow, Scotland. The DVD also features the band's "No More" music video and five webisodes, four on the making of "Sick" and one of the 2008 U.K. tour.
"Sick", originally released in 2009, strikes a precarious balance at the juncture of metal, punk and grunge.
Originally formed in 1998, LOADED is fronted by Grammy/American Music Award-winning songwriter/recording artist/bassist Duff McKagan — a founding member of GUNS N' ROSES and VELVET REVOLVER. With Duff stepping up to the front as lead vocalist and guitarist, bassist Jeff Rouse picks up the low end duties. Guitarist Mike Squires and drummer Geoff Reading round out the band lineup on "Sick" (Reading was replaced by drummer Isaac Carpenter before the release of the band's latest album, "The Taking").

Un EP avec de beaux guests va sortir le même jour que son prochain livre :
As he gears up for the May 12 release of his much-buzzed-about new book, "How To Be A Man (And Other Illusions)" (Da Capo Press), former GUNS N' ROSES bassist Duff McKagan will issue a three-song companion EP, "How To Be A Man". Due on the same day as the book, the disc features former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Izzy Stradlin, ALICE IN CHAINS vocalist/guitarist Jerry Cantrell, STONE SOUR drummer Roy Mayorga and drummer Taz Bentley. It will be available for pre-order beginning May 5.
"How To Be A Man (And Other Illusions)" is the follow-up to Duff's critically acclaimed New York Times bestselling memoir, "It's So Easy (And Other Lies)".
In "How To Be A Man", McKagan shares the wisdom he gained on the path to superstardom — from his time with GUNS N' ROSES and VELVET REVOLVER to getting sober after a life of hard living to achieving his personal American Dream of marrying a supermodel, raising a family and experiencing what it's like to be winked at by Prince.
