where can i find this damn album im eager to listen to it!

izzy's got the original gnr sound, that man can play!

i bet if he had the job to rework the album, he would make it sound killer

nice and down to earth people respond to questions like whens the album comming out, NO MORE SECRECY

ITS NOT CHINESE SECRECY, ITS DEMORACY

Popped into our local HMV store yesterday, sure it was a Tuesday, sure i popped over to the Gn'R section, sure it was my fisrt visit to a record store in over 2 months and sure enough there was no CD and i walked out the store with a DVD and a The Best of Depechemode CD

Over in the Gn'R section it looked pretty poor. There was 1 copy of UYI and 1 copy of UYU 2 and no other Gn'R albums. It's a pretty big record store and the thought hit me that HMV are not expecting Chinese Democracy anytime soon as there simply wasn't shelf space and to make shelf space would have taken a lot of work (as was the design of the shelving).

I have only two questions:

Which is worse: The fact you thought you'd see Chinese Democray on the shelf, OR

The fact you purchased a "Best of Depechmode" cd (of which those three words should never be part of a sentance in that order!)

hahaha he was probaly depressed by the "no chinese democracy cd" that he went over to buy dpeche mode to drown in his sorrows..

write "IF YOU DONT RELEASE THE ALBUM SOON, ILL BE A DOWNLOADING MOTHERFUCKER

don't get me wrong, i love gnr, always have loved them, but 13years for an album.. i mean im not saying ive waited 13years, not at all.. ive honeslty been waiting since 2002, when they made that vma comeback, thats when i really had hope for the nugnr..

anything before that i knew wasnt really possible because i dont even think axl had his band together right.. i think only recently axl and the rest of the band has really glued as a band. sure they may have recorded so much stuff together, but there was never really a final product.. i think - today and this year is the year that the band really glued together and became a real band. and this is the time when their true music will come out, maybe not in a cd.. but in rehersals, and writing new material, i think once chi dem is out.. you would probaly see more albums more frequently from these guys.

well the longer you leave it(13years) the harder it gets to release i guess, all the hype, the anticipation. now he's gotta live upto 13years of anticipation, when you work on something for 13years, ppl expect it to be not just great, but a masterpiece.

im afraid the longer axl leaves it, the harder its going to be for him to please everyone.

yeah, a real good read, nothing but the truth, thanks!

Looks like we'll just have to hold Pitman hostage.

(J/K.)

HAHAHAHA imagine that, 6oclock news.. thats front page material! (photographer takes a shot)

it's cool.. its damn cool.

i love being a gnrfan

get da f0ck out.

wait but then it'd be all over the news......... hmmmmmmm.

exactly..

everyone in the area, or who can get in the area, to where the guns n roses album was apparently blaring from geffen records, should all meet up there and organise a day, where almost a protest should occur, signs, and chants for the album outside geffen records.

either that or just ignore the rest of gnrs activity.., its a simple pyschologigal thing..

you ignore someone, they want to reach out to you

you bug somoene, it pushes them away

an artist is always critical of his own work, i mean i draw pictures, and i know im good, but no matter what people say about my work, i always think it could be a little better.

i remember axl saying for the uyi albums he was going over it with a "fine comb" i think that habits just gotten worse as the years progressed., hes too critical on his own work, and strives for perfection in his own mind, not anyone elses opinion

my guess anyways

I understand striving for perfection, but there comes a time to just let it go. Would you as an artist, no longer show your work to other people because you don't think it's perfect? Even if 90 percent of people told you it's great? It just doesn't make sense to me.......

yeah i getya, i know as an artist even if your not totally 100% satisfied with your work, that you have to just get it out there, and say fuck it, here it is.., when people look at art, and say its perfect, they dont see the mistakes you think youve done, because they think in their mind, that was meant to be there..

i apologize for comparing my art to gnr music, but its one way i could relate to what may be happening..

i have a feeling it was that song called "checkmate" uploaded by frozeninferno on youtube.

and thats a rockin song, im sure its gnr

yeah, axl strives for something, which is almost impossible to do nowdays, i mean i know alot of people say, theres so much more you can do with rock, but honestly, its not just about the music, its about being in the right place at the right time, for the right movement..

music stores know as much as we do, the only difference is they get the album like 2 daysd before we can by it, and since we dont know shit about the album, neither do they..

any release dates that aint offical is all bullshit and nothing but speculation.

yeah, i agree.. that could be a possibility, once he said on the mtv awards that it was hard to replace what was once gnr..

he would have a high quality of expectations from the new guys, and it would be hard to once shock the music world with his music..

its just rarely done anymore..

what happened to the beatles?, led zeppelin you know, theres not any musicians out there nowdays that take the music scene by storm anymore..

i think axl is trying to become that.. someone who will always be remembered as a musical genius, in which he is.. maybe he just doubts his work

the devil is among us.

he looks at me from across the room and says.

CHINESE DEMOCRACY STARTS NOW

Yah, hes done quite a bit for us axl, BUT NO ALBUM!

AXL WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!
