Rovim Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) It's November 23, 2014.6 years since Chinese came out. After the Axl chats I remember thinking that maybe, just maybe he'll release another album in like 2 or 3 years. That obviously didn't happen.Now, it's been 6 long years since it came out and while there is some talk about it coming from Axl, Fortus, Dizzy and DJ, the feeling is still the same: mostly kept in the dark, no details about why CD ll, a finished album, remains unreleased.What are your thoughts about the near future, like the next year or 2? do you believe there's a chance we'll get a release date or at least a real update? will they tour without releasing CD ll, or even playing a new song?It's hard to believe it's been that long. Kinda a weird situation cause you don't really know who to believe or what piece of info is true. Point of this thread is to better understand what the fuck is going on with Gn'R's future plans.

DirtyDeeds Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I expect nothing, and we'll get nothing. Maybe some South American tour I don't give a shit about and probably won't even notice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhazUp Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I expect the next two years to be the same as the past two years. Same old shows, not much else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoGer99 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 My guess is November 2015.There have been a few rumors of Axl staying in Vegas after the residency to finish the new record as he also said in the Revolver interview so I guess there could be some thing true with does rumors. So yeah it's 1 more year for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He showed interest in releasing it, saying he would "love to" do it.Sure but Axl also expressed interest in Chinese Democracy coming out in 1999/2000, so at this point I am in the "I will believe it when I see it" group. Well I have been in that group for a couple of years now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Summer 2015 but will ultimately be delayed until the end of 2015. The touring is out of gas. Axl knows it, the band knows it. An album has to be on the horizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An album has to be on the horizon.And it's done, so how hard can it be? unless there are issues with the label. The real issue here for me is Axl's refusal to let us in on what's the exact status of the album right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Bird Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) I expect the next two years to be the same as the past two years. Same old shows, not much else. Even Axl can't tour forever without releasing new material. He showed interest in releasing it, saying he would "love to" do it.If it's really finished why the fuck he doesn't release it? I don't believe it's finished. I do believe that it's in the works. I do believe it's almost done, but almost done for years now and Axl's perfectionism and his mental issues just won't allow him to release it anytime "soon".This guy isn't the only person in the world who has to deal with record labels and what not. But it's like ... nobody else gets stressed more by this kind of shit. Edited November 23, 2014 by Free Bird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncivil war Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) IMO the only issue could be with the money. The label already threw so much cash at the Chinese sessions, and if most of these songs are from then, then the label feels they have already paid for them. Axl feels that a new album is a new album and wants to get paid. It's a stand-off.This and song writing credits. That's IF we believe that the songs are done, of course.

It's the only thing that makes any sense at all. Of course, nothing to do with GNR has ever really made any sense, so at this point all bets are off. I guess we're all just waiting for somebody to dive in and find the monkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's like ... nobody else gets stressed more by this kind of shit.Axl said in 2006 that 26 songs were done out of 32. Take out what we have (14 songs) and it's at least 12 unreleased songs that are done, probably 18.Axl also said recently CD ll is done. He has no real reason to lie about that. It will only cause more backlash and expectations from the fans if it's not true so it doesn't really seem likely imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dando Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 To be honest, I never expected to have chinese released ever so kinda pleased it was so not holding much hope for cd2, sure they'll claim the Vegas DVD/cd release as new stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) A lot of album got released today. Live era, spaghetti, lies. Edited November 23, 2014 by Axl_morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Broue Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I will listen to CD now and remember NOT to expect jackshit from AxlA lot of album got released today.

guzzy Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) I honestly believe we'll receive the whole Chinese Box including the Remixes as Bumblefoot hintedat somw point. Its kind of "do it for the fans, close the chapter" type of thing. Axl wouldnt say it at Recolver mag if he hadnt the intention, timing is another thing! But hey we got DVD plus CD on stores now and it will hit Itunes on Dec. so things are a bit different now. 22 songs left from Chinese + few new things to choose from. Axl will manage the vault in order to have wealthy lifestile in the following years so we will always have iconic unheard songs to talk about and hope for leaking!If its not 2015 it'll be 2016. Once I got that I wont be as desperate as Im now. I will make peace and forget about reading daily news on this bastard!

wkuk04 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I'm thinking a 2015 release. He'll release the entire CD sessions in a Chinese take away box, you have to put the chopsticks in your ears to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I'll always love CD especiallly since it gave me my personal favorite GN'R song: Having said that, I have little to no hope of any more GN'R material coming any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronartest2004 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I honestly think the only way we will get a new album will be if we start seeing new leaks which will force axls hand into releasing it. It's sad, but I do think that will be the only way. Honestly, I think that's the only way we got CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
