New Guns N Roses Album In November

2008-09-25 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 60 Comments
According to sources within the retail industry, Guns N' Roses' mythical Chinese Democracy will finally drop on November 25.

Following long-standing rumours of a bidding war between Wal-Mart and Best Buy, the album will apparently be released exclusively at Best Buy stores, thereby avoiding Wal-Mart's censorship policy.

It is also expected that one of the album's tracks will play a part in Ridley Scott's upcoming movie Body Of Lies, starring Russel Crowe and Leonardo Di Caprio, which is due for release on October 10.

No fucking way.

first post ftw.

Can't wait for people to start posting about how the demos that leaked online sucked, then to only have other people claim that demos are not indicative of the album as they were unmixed/mastered.

It wish i was hyped, but in all honesty, the only remaining member is only axl. i can't get hyped about a "guns n roses" album without Slash, Duff and Izzy. It just isn't guns, its an axl rose solo album

now if a reunion happened, boy would i be hyped!

I think it's hilarious that they had to do an exclusive retail release in order to keep the record label from losing money over releasing the album.
There was a huge article about all of this like 2 months ago in guitar world.

To be honest, Axl's voice has really sucked in recent years. I'm not looking forward to this too much, but considering how much I liked the Use Your Illusion albums, I'll probably pick it up.
I really don't like the way Axl thinks that he's Guns N Roses on his own, either. I really wish he would just decide to shut up for once, he's really not doing himself any favours.

"To be honest, Axl's voice has really sucked in recent years"
Do you mean live? If so his voice was always pretty hit or miss. I haven't heard any of the new stuff so I can't speak on that.
All I know is that Buckethead's version of nightrain makes slash look like he just picked up a guitar for the first time...well not really but Buckethead's is insane.

Yeah, not holding my breath. But if it does come out, I'll buy it, not for the music really, but mainly for being part of musical history. But in all odds, will it really come out on the 25th of Nov this year? It didnt when it was supposed to come out Oct 28th last year. Who knows. I will wait until Geffen confirms this one.

Yeah, I did mean live, though I guess it has always been hit and miss. However, I just can't see his voice being anything near what it was before (not that I particularly liked it very much, but it had a certain appeal) and I'm afraid that'll serious compromise this album. Yeah, I think this album may well sell loads of copies, but not necessarily because people are incredibly excited so much as waiting desperately to rip it apart. We'll see, I guess.

Check out the recent vid of "Nightrain" on Youtube about a year or so back... dude can definitely sing again. This album will probably be pretty good.

Than I can walk by it, pick it up and say "wow it's finally out." than put the album back down and walk away because it's gonna suck.

I love how so many people practically worship this band when they really only made ONE good album and then a few sucky ones. Plus, Axl's vocals are terrible.

Well, at first glance it certainly appears to be on quite a few torrent sites, and the comments are all saying it's the real deal. Don't think I can be bothered to download it, though.

Why? Because I realize that Axl Rose is a terrible singer. Yes, that makes perfect sense. I don't like Axl Rose (who is a huge dickhead BTW) so I must hate life. EXCELLENT LOGIC!

Illusion I & II = great, if bloated rock records

Pretty good track record to me
