Excerpts from Blabbermouth:
_________________________

In a new interview with Poland's Pełna Kulturka, Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan, who is preparing to embark on a tour in support of his third solo studio album, 2023's "Lighthouse", was asked if he is already working on new solo music. He responded (as transcribed by Blabbermouth.net): "Well, I'm gonna release a new song, I think the day we start touring in Dublin [on September 30] — with a B-side. It's the way I still think — a single with a B-side; I still think that way, although it's digital and all that stuff now, but you just make more material available. So I've got a couple of songs coming out in a couple of weeks. And I have — one other record's completely already arranged song-wise. We've got that record. And I don't know when I'll put it out because there's more Guns stuff to come here sooner than later. So I don't wanna put out a record while Guns is doing a thing. I try to stagger all of that stuff. So when that record will come out, the next record, I don't know. I could just put three records out at one time, but that'd be too much."

Asked if it's still really important for him to release full-length albums as opposed to stand-alone singles, Duff replied: "Yeah, it is. To me, and I'll never give this up, it's just the way I came up — albums you listened from side A, song one, flipped it, listened the whole way. And those records became these soundtracks to your life. And you would look at the vinyl, look at the packaging and where the record was recorded and all that stuff. And it's really nice for me to see vinyl really coming back, in a real way. And my daughter's looking at albums now, like, 'Wow, look at that.' It's not just a little thing on your iPhone screen, like the record cover's this little… We do artwork, and it's all important to me. I still like to tell a story with an album. And 'Lighthouse' was no different. It starts with the song 'Lighthouse' and it takes you on this journey. It ends you up at 'I Just Don't Know', which is pondering what's next. So I liked it. There's hope in the middle of the song, with an actual song called 'Hope'. There's peaks and valleys to the lyrics, lyrically. So it's important for me. I'll always put out albums, no matter what anybody else thinks. And people seem to like vinyl. I do well on vinyl, 'cause I give a shit. And I make the vinyl sound good at test pressings, and mastering the vinyl and doing all that stuff is important to me."
