Guns N\u2019 Roses bassist Duff McKagan<\/a> blasts clickbait and media sensationalism on his folky new song \u201cChip Away.\u201d \u201cTalking heads are making dollars\/It\u2019s like doing crack day after day,\u201d he sings over acoustic strums and back-porch violin, later throwing out a reference to the Flat Earth movement (\u201cI hear it often nowadays\/The Earth is flat or so they say\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Chip Away\u2019 is somewhat of a rail against cable news and divisive agendas\u2026all for the almighty dollar,\u201d McKagan said in a statement. \u201cThe song also highlights the fact that history repeats itself over and over, and that we will all get past this, together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The song appears on McKagan\u2019s upcoming solo LP, the Shooter Jennings-produced Tenderness<\/em><\/a>, out May 31st via UMe. \u201cChip Away\u201d follows his recently issued title track<\/a>, and both are available as instant downloads by ordering the album.<\/span><\/p>\n

The singer-songwriter will promote Tenderness<\/em> \u2014 the \u201cmusical follow-up\u201d to his 2015 book, How to Be a Man (and Other Illusions)<\/em><\/a> \u2014 on a brief U.S. tour<\/a>. The 11-date trek, which features Jennings as part of his backing band, launches May 30th in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and wraps June 16th in Seattle, Washington.<\/span><\/p>\n
