In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Slash spoke about "Hard Skool", one of the first two songs he recorded with GUNS N' ROSES in more than 25 years. "'Hard Skool', in essence, was a completed song when I was first introduced to it," he said. "And Duff [McKagan, GUNS N' ROSES bassist] and I went in and redid the bass and the guitars.
