Velvet Revolver's Contraband returns in a 20th anniversary 2LP edition with bonus tracks, revisiting the 2004 debut that proved a supergroup could live up to the hype.

The lineup was a hard rock fantasy: Slash, Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum from Guns N' Roses, guitarist Dave Kushner, and Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots out front. On paper it could have collapsed under its own egos. Instead it delivered a lean, hungry record with real songs at its core.

Slither became the calling card, a snarling riff and a sneering vocal that earned a Grammy, while Fall to Pieces showed a more vulnerable side, Weiland laying his struggles bare over a sweeping ballad. Sucker Train Blues kicks the door in at the start, and Dirty Little Thing swaggers with pure rock and roll attitude.

Slash's guitar tone is unmistakable throughout, and the rhythm section of McKagan and Sorum swings harder than most of their peers managed at the time. Weiland's voice, elastic and theatrical, ties it all together. Nothing here sounds like a side project.

Spread across two discs with extra material alongside the original album, this edition offers a fresh look at a short-lived band whose debut still hits like a freight train, two decades on.
