Guns N’ Roses member Slash commented on the current state of rock music, saying that the genre is “turning over a new leaf.”

Speaking in a new interview with Billboard Radio China, the Guns n’ Roses member said, “The commercial approach to rock and roll that the industry forces on bands, or forces people to think that this is how they have to go about it to succeed…it just turns into this generic mishmosh that manages to get on the radio but doesn’t really turn anybody on, and it’s just dull and boring and people start looking elsewhere.

“And, obviously, Greta Van Fleet have done amazingly well and made everybody perk up and go, ‘Oh, wow!’ Now there’s people out there looking for young, teenage rock and roll bands to sign.”
