  1. My instinct tells me that this thread pretty much has what's gonna happen spot on.

    I would LOVE to see Chinese and its successor released simultaneously sometime this year. This time, however, Chinese will have the authorised artwork and will be the album Axl wanted it to be. I know it sounds crazy but I think in some respects Uncle Axl doesn't view chinese as being properly released yet - especially with how the band was fucked over with the covers, etc

    After all he did say he considers it to be part of a double - so upon the simultaneous release perhaps we will begin to see interviews, videos and stuff.

    Would be fuckin amazin....I'd better go drink some coffee and wake up :)

    Sure the booklet is full of errors / typos. I thought the plan was to have a bike on the cover all along?

    It was, but the track list was thrown together at the last minute. CD is pretty funny, it took so long to make and have come out by judging by the mixing of the album and the artwork, it feels like it was rushed out.

    That is why I think Axl did not promote the album because the label forced out the album. Why else would Axl not promote it.

    Didn't he also feel that UYI had been "rushed out"? Is there any particular reason why he couldn't have picked the cover art and got that settled in the years he was working on the album. As for the typos in the booklet, exactly how long does it take to proof read something like that?

  2. America Blows....Time to move to Canada!

    Canada is in north America.

    Where did I say North America? I meant the USA.

    You may have meant to say the USA but you said America. Canada is in America. Specifically North America.

  3. They're a very musical people.

    The bigger problem is that rock music has been stagnating for two decades. The lack of popularity that rock music has among blacks is reflected among teenagers among all ethnic groups. If there were really good rock bands out there producing new music that might change. I don't see it happening anytime soon.

  4. Axl and the rest of the band need to get out there and work with the media as much as they can to elevate the profile of the newer bad members and CD. The release of CD was a missed opportunity to do that but with a new album or single they could fix that mistake. Can you blame anyone for thinking that Slash and Duff are still in the band when there haven't been any publicity shots of the new line up released?

    Has there been a more recent studio shot of the band together since this one?

  5. Eminem is only famous because he's white. Beyonce is only famous because she has a huge ass. Nickleback are only famous because they are the biggest douche bags in the history of human civilization. They are the holy trinity of suck and the real reason why the music industry is in the toilet.

    Damn kids. Get off my lawn.
