		[U.S.] [1913 Webster] {Contraband of war}, that which, according to international law, cannot be supplied to a hostile belligerent except at the risk of seizure and condemnation by the aggrieved belligerent.

		Contraband of war, is the act by which, in times of war, a neutral vessel introduces, or attempts to introduce into the territory of, one of the belligerent parties, arms, ammunition, or other effects intended for, or which may serve, hostile operations.

	Velvet Revolver: Contraband Review @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
		This band has a very hard rock sound, and although very raw and powerful, it can be melodic, such as in the songs "Fall To Pieces" and "Loving The Alien." Slash is stilll rockin', dishing out one awesome riff after the other.
		This bands music is not the combination of either, so if you go and buy the album thinking they are then you will be surprised because all your going to hear is a new band named Velvet Revolver.
		Scott was in rehab while the band recoded the songs and then he came to finish the lyrics, and you can tell on some somgs that he fought drugs, on songs like "Slither", or "Fall To Pieces" or "Superhuman".

		Obviously the other guys in the band are awesome as well, and i was particularly impresed with Dave Kushner, who often plays the riffs with Slash playing simple melodies over the top: excellent guitar work.
		Stone Temple Pilots are very similar to bands such as Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and Nirvana and it is this kind of music which eventually signalled the demise of Guns n Roses so it was a strange choice to pick Scott but I think an interesting one.
		Before buying, this "digipak" version of contraband appears to be nothing more then a bonus disc with an extra track on it, so naturally, it had more appeal to me then the normal version.

	Velvet Revolver: Contraband - PopMatters Music Review
		Contraband is a pretty good record of unpretentious rock and roll that suffers from inevitable comparison with the best efforts of its parent bands.
		Some of the songs on Contraband sound restrained, tentative, as though the band was trying to deny its own musical genetics and forge a new identity on the fly.
		Contraband is at its best when the band's players stop thinking about trying to sound different and just do what they've always done.

		It may be strange to say it but this band does not sound like guns and roses or stone temple pilots they sound like velvet revolver a new rock band thats hopefully going to be around for a long time.
		This sees the band really in tune with each other - something which is noticeable in the band's live performances - they are united, and this is shown on the album.
		There's a lot of new bands these days trying to sell themselves in the charts but these old rockers have dusted themselves off and really show the younger generation a thing or two about good music.

		It was only later that the newly formed rock band became official and adopted the Velvet Revolver name—all in the midst of yet another drug possession bust for Weiland.
		Contraband (co-produced by Josh Abraham & Velvet Revolver) doesn’t come as any surprise to me. It’s loud, it’s fun, and it is exceptionally high quality rock music.
		Contraband is as much as I’d hoped for—nothing more and nothing less.

	Music: Contraband
		Of course the mellow beauty is short-lived as the band immediately jumps back into the turbulent fray on "Slither," yet another grinding, surging blast of thunderstruck chugging metal mayhem.
		As I stated above, the major downfall to Contraband is that the band shows very little diversity—only three mellow songs out of a total 13—choosing instead to keep things amped to full tilt for much of the duration.
		But it's when the band lets their machismo reside in the shadows that things really begin to heat up, Weiland showcasing a voice that is both rich and commanding and Slash and Kushner unveiling some downright engaging six-string mellowness.

		Contraband is not a five star classic, but it is a very satisfactory meat and potatoes hard rock disc.
		When it was announced last year that guitarist Slash, bassist Duff, and drummer Matt Sorum were putting together a new band, all sorts of speculation came about as to who the singer would be.
		There are definitely times where the comparison can be made (as I did with Sucker Train Blues), but Velvet Revolver is their own band, just with more famous members than your normal band releasing their debut.
