Velvet Revolver will be releasing an EP Harmony And The Tyranny this June. It will feature two tracks from their new album "Libertad" (will be out on July 3rd) plus a cover of "Talking Heads" "Psycho Killer" and a video on the making of the album. Sounds pretty rocking to me!

Tracks for you until then:
Velvet Revolver - "Set Me Free" (mp3)

We now know the offical track listing of Ryan Adams' upcoming album Easy Tiger. The album will release on June 26th and I'm pretty excited. The only bad thing I've got to say is I don't know why he has Sheryl Crow on two tracks. Bleck! I guess I shouldn't diss her just because she is a homewrecker though, she does have a nice edgy voice that I am sure will compliment the album very well. And hey, we all screw up from time to time, right? Right.

So here is the track list:

"Goodnight Rose"
"Two"
"Everybody Knows"
"Halloweenhead"
"Oh My God, Whatever, Etc."
"Tears of Gold"
"The Sun Also Sets"
"Off Broadway"
"Pearls on a String"
"Rip Off"
"Two Hearts"
"Three Girls"
"I Taught Myself How To Grow Old"

And if you find yourself in Philly on May 15th head on over to the Keswick Theatre, because he'll be there jamming.

Until then, here are some tracks:
Ryan Adams - "Goodnight Rose" (live mp3)
Ryan Adams - "Rosalie Come and Go" (mp3)
