He has a great voice. Unfortunately with slash he goes to the Mickey Mouse voice far to often

Yeah I enjoy his voice with Alter Bridge, but not on most of the Slash stuff.

I?m not a huge fan of Myles voice.
The guy can definitely sing, he?s got range, it just doesn?t do a whole lot for me.
The bigger issue for me though is his songwriting. His lyrics on a lot of songs bore me to tears, and at best, they just don?t get in the way. Doesn?t ever seem to really add anything.
Unfortunately seems like some of Slash?s efforts are wasted, because Myles just isn?t on his level.
Anastasia for instance could be a great song, but Myles mind numbingly boring lyrics/story just won?t allow it to be.
I like his ability to handle the broad range of covers, and new stuff live, but overall, I would never feel compelled to listen to Myles if Slash wasn?t playing guitar behind him.
It?s a shame. I?ll buy the new album when it comes out, and hopefully Myles will surprise me, but have a feeling he is what he is at this point.
Slash still clearly has more to offer, but his playing can only carry the songs so far in my opinion.
I would have liked to have heard more from the Slash/Stockdale pairing, but Myles doesn?t seem to have lead singer disease, so this lineup is probably in it for the long haul.
I will say I think Myles voice sounds pretty great on Nothing Left to Fear.

Whilst reading your post, this was something I was going to point out as well. For Slash, it's obviously not strictly about talent. Myles isn't the strongest singer Slash could find, but I'd bet dollars to donuts that Myles is indeed a singer that Slash can actually tolerate having around him 24/7 in the studio, on the road, etc. We'd still be hearing from Velvet Revolver if the singer could keep his shit together, and given Slash's comments about Scott, it's obvious that Scott's talent means zilch to Slash in favor of having a singer that Slash can actually stand being around. I can understand that.

Yep, Myles' crowning performance with Slash so far. Fantastic song.

As someone mentioned, the single sounds like the generic boilerplate safe rock song you would put out these days, but let's see how the rest of the album goes.
I hope Myles uses his 'other' voices as on AL.

I like "Bent to Fly" as well, not sure if I like it better than "World on Fire".

Sounds good. Much prefer Myles singing in that lower register. I think on the basis of the two songs the Album could be a big commercial success.

^ I gotta say, it just seems wrong to see anyone but Axl sing this song. It is supposed to be sung with anger, if not rage, and Myles does not have it. It's a song about getting screwed over by your significant other and you are pissed off about it, and Myles just does not convey that emotion.
On the other hand, in response to quite a few posts above, some of his lyrics are really good. "Not for me" for instance is very personal and strikes an emotional cord, as does "You're a liar." I like those two songs quite a lot.

Yeah, Myles nails all the right notes live, very impressive. However i agree he does not convey the emotion of the song, but really how could he, its not his song or his lyrics. Myles serves his purpose as an excellent live singer, I just don't enjoy the music he writes with Slash. Best case scenario for me would be Slash doing more records like the 2010 album with multiple guest singers, and having Myles actually tour the record as he can pretty much nail everything he tries to sing. Myles doesn't need to have a good stage presence live, Slash is the show.

I agree that Myles doesn't have Axl's rage, but then again, he isn't trying to replicate Axl. He's just singing the song with no other agenda. I appreciate the fact that Slash is constantly incorporating different songs into the setlist.

If you haven't heard "Bent to Fly" on YT yet, I suggest you check it out.
IMO it is the best of the new songs so far.
