Duff McKagan has dropped a new single from his upcoming third solo LP.
Longfeather is a mournful, piano-based rock song that comes with a dramatic black and white video, directed by Connor Ellmann, Kuj Durollari, and Arben Durollari. Reflecting on the lyrics, McKagan said:
"'Today is a good day to die' refers not to a macabre yearning for death, but rather a lust for life and the learned habits of a good and honest daily striving. Longfeather was protecting his home. He couldn't hold up ALL of the Western wave… but he did his everything to keep his family safe. O Longfeather is gone. And O, Longfeather is home. I see you. I see you. Thank you Longfeather for giving me hope and a solid place to stand."
McKagan previously teased 'Lighthouse', due out on October 20, with I Saw God On 10th Street and the title track. It's also set to feature collaborations with his Guns N' Roses bandmate Slash, Iggy Pop and Alice In Chains' Jerry Cantrell.
Guns N' Roses will continue their current run of North American dates with a show in Hollywood, Florida tomorrow (September 14). They'll also play a number of festival dates, including Sacramento's Aftershock in October.
