More Chinese Democracy Info 2006-10-18 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 13 Comments | Rolling Stone magazine have posted further reports indicating that Guns N' Roses mythical Chinese Democracy album may be close to release.
Rolling Stone will run a feature on the album in their next issue, but earlier tonight a website posting revealed some unexpected pieces of news, including Sebastian Bach's claim that the album includes a doom metal-type number named 'Sorry':
* Following Guns’ headlining gig in San Bernadino, California, on September 23rd, Axl threw a party at his mansion and played the full album in his poolroom for visitors, including his friend Sebastian Bach, former singer of Skid Row. “It was mind-blowing,” says Bach, who is opening for Guns n’ Roses on their upcoming North American arena tour. “It’s a very cool album – it’s badass with killer screams, killer guitar riffs, but it’s got a totally modern sound. The word for it is ‘grand.’ It’s fucking epic. He’s reinvented himself yet again.”
* The album includes some tracks that have been played live or leaked onto the Internet, including the poppy “Better” and the hard-hitting “I.R.S.” “There’s this one song called ‘Sorry’ that’s almost like doom metal with Axl singing really clean over this grinding, slow beat that is fucking mean,” says Bach. “I cannot get it out of my head.”
* Veteran engineer Andy Wallace, who mixed Nirvana’s Nevermind, is working on the project, according to a source close to the band. “We’re absolutely delighted with the mixes,” the source says.
* On October 24th, the band will kick off its North American tour in Miami. Two dates — November 10th in New York and November 20th in Halifax, Nova Scotia — are already sold out, according to Mercuriadis. Additional U.S. dates will be added in early 2007, and the band will return to the States in the summer as well, he says.
* Though a source told Rolling Stone that the album is due November 21st, [manager, Merck] Mercuriadis declined to confirm this. “I don’t know that we will announce a release date,” he says. “You just might walk into your record shop one Tuesday and find it there.”

So what's the over/under on reviews for this album on this site within the first month of release?
8. I'll say More than 8.

Oh man, I never even thought about reviewing it, that's gonna be so much fun.
It's gonna be epic......

i think this will be an interesting release. then again, if it is released. It has been around a decade so....hopefully it comes out. Also, hopefully it sounds good.

You know what would be the ultimate twist?
China adopting Democracy before the album comes out.
