Loaded (also known as Duff McKagan's Loaded) is an American hard rock supergroup that formed in Seattle, Washington in 1999. Originally comprising vocalist, bassist and songwriter Duff McKagan (formerly of Guns N' Roses), guitarist Michael Barragan (formerly of Plexi), guitarist Dez Cadena (formerly of Black Flag et al.) and drummer Taz Bentley (formerly of The Reverend Horton Heat), the band released Episode 1999: Live in 1999 and Dark Days in 2001, before splitting up in 2002 upon the formation of Velvet Revolver.
Loaded reunited in 2008 with McKagan on vocals and guitar and new members – guitarist Mike Squires [formerly of Alien Crime Syndicate and Nevada Bachelors), bassist Jeff Rouse (formerly of Alien Crime Syndicate, Vendetta Red and Sirens Sister) and drummer and backing vocalist Geoff Reading (formerly of New American Shame and Green Apple Quick Step). The band released extended play Wasted Heart in September, with their second studio album – entitled Sick – due for release on April 7, 2009.[1]
