Full story by Blabbermouth:

“DUFF MCKAGAN’S LOADED will release “The Taking” on April 19 via Eagle Rock Entertainment. The CD was recorded at a Seattle-area studio with veteran rock producer Terry Date (SOUNDGARDEN, PANTERA, DEFTONES).”

“On Tuesday, three of [DUFF MCKAGAN'S LOADED's] new songs and the cover art from our upcoming record, ‘The Taking’, were leaked on BLABBERMOUTH. A few years ago, digital streams as leaks spelled doom for a band’s future record sales; now they are looked at as almost a good thing, something that can get a prospective audience pumped and talking about the upcoming release of the full-length. It is almost like it is free advertising, like ‘Here, check out some of THIS. It is so good and precious, that someone figured out how to hack into the label’s mainframe computer and unleash this new kick-ass music.’ Hey, for me, and everything that I have seen over the years in this business, who cares? As long as people are talking.”
