gunners2roses

This was his face expression when he heard a fan singing allong with "better"

LMAO!

I'm not sure about it being on TV but I think it's being streamed on the net if that helps

Relieved

Axl didn't want to live his career through Appetite so he took a new direction, he's gonna take a new direction with CD from the illusions cause theres no point in doing something you've already done, its pointless and uninteresting.

Velvet Revolver's Slash and Duff are rumoured to be returning to Guns N' Roses for a summer tour, but that's not stopping the band from working with an unlikely collaborator: Pharrell Williams. The Neptunes/N.E.R.D. superstar is also set to work on Scott Weiland's solo album, plus projects with Slim Thug, Snoop Dogg and Jay-Z.

is this shit?

The Pharrel bit isnt false, Sorum mentioned it a while back

Out of that list i'd say MTV/Rolling Stone

Can someone summarise whats said on that podcast...it'll take me all day to download it...

Around 2 pounds I think

... and re-visiting Guns N' Roses most outrageous interview ever, "

In other words...it's a rehash.

Oh for God sake why do Kerrang even bother...

?????

Smells like Newbies...

*Yawn*

I love to see Slash playing with Guns again but only if they had mutual respect for one another and it wasn't about money or whatever, but yeah it'd be nice.

Don't worry about that, it was a fake.

I'd hazard a guess at it being the 10th of June, just my speculation though.

"NME understands that a second live date around the same time (as Download Festival) is also planned - possibly a London club show"

Also NME said it would be a club show Sounds like there might be a little substance to this after all...

I'd of thought this is realistic as every band plays London, secret or not...even Guns.

Yeah April 1st is just gonna be full of fakes and crap, I can just imagine it tomorrow threads will read:

"SLASH "It's Official I'm Back!"

"CHINESE DEMOCRACY OUT IN..."

"LOST ALBUM FINISHED TO BE RELEASED WITH CD!"

"GNR ANNOUNCEMENT!"

"MASSIVE 5 YEAR GNR TOUR!!"

I put this down as an April fools joke...unless theres any news on the actual Gn'R site

My PC is being crap and not loading stuff properly...whats in this email?

For those who want to know what was said in the article, here you go:

Guns N' Roses - NEW SONGS FINALLY APPEAR

Tracks set for "Chinese Democracy" leak - and NME sneaks a listen.

Songs set for GunsN'Roses' long-awaited 'Chinese Democracy' album have leaked online – and record label sources are saying it's looking increasingly likely there'll be a release this year. The titles of the tracks, 'IRS', 'TWAT (There Was A Time)', 'The Blues', 'Catcher In The Rye' and 'Better' have been circulating for a while. But last week audio files appeared, giving fans the first real taste of the record. 'Chinese Democracy' will be the first Guns N'Roses album since the stopgap covers project 'The Spaghetti Incident?' in 1993, which followed their last 'proper' albums 'Use Your Illusion I' and 'Use Your Illusion II' in 1991. A band insider told NME: "I don't think the leak was deliberate on AxI (Rose]'s part, but my guess is that he'll want to see ~ what people's reaction to the music is. If it's positive, then there's a very good chance.. the album will be released this year." The band have already confirmed details of a European tour to premiere the album. The only date scheduled for the UK so far is a headline appearance at the Download Festival at Donington Park in June. NME understands that a second live date is also planned around the same time - possibly a club show in London. Rumours continue to fly about the album - the latest of which is that 'Chinese Democracy' could actually be a triple album. According to an American newspaper, Rose was at the Roxy Theatre in Hollywood recently, where he hinted that the album would be the band's longest. There’s definitely no shortage of tracks. Rare live appearances in recent years have showcased other new material with working titles including 'Madagascar', 'Silk Worms' and 'Rhiad & The Bedouins'. However, this contradicts earlier statements made by Rose that of the 32 songs that are being worked on, only 13 will feature on the final tracklist. One unnamed track features former Queen guitarist Brian May, who said working on the album was "a blast".

Chinese Democracy: The First Listen

IRS:

Over a trip-hop beat and a riff similar to classic GN'R single 'You Could Be Mine Axl vows revenge on an ex-lover by setting not just the Inland Revenue on them, but also entire US federal justice system (including the President). Sounds like classic late-period Guns N Roses - rooted in early '90’s excess.

TWAT (There Was A Time):

Despite the unfortunate title, this reassuringly overblown six-minute mini-epic is easily the best song in the batch, not to mention the only genuinely new track – since others have been played live. Very much in the “Estranged”/”November rain” mould, its Slash-like guitar hooks, soaring strings and falsetto vocals build to an agreeably grandiose climax tailer made for a windswept, edge of a cliff-style promo clip. Take that, Justin Hawkins!

The Blues:

The leaked version of “The Blues” is rumoured to be a re-touched live recording from 2002 and combines plaintive piano parts, glam-rock riffs and glistening guitar solos that variously recall Elton John, David Bowie and Brain May. Sadly, it’s not actually as good (or gloriously awful) as that would suggest.

Better:

Another heavily-processed beat quickly gives way to a grinding guitar riff ironically reminiscent of Velvet Revolvers frontman Scott Weiland’s first band Stone Temple Pilots. Unfortunately, the leaked version of the track stops just as a much more interesting sounding chorus kicks in.

Catcher In The Rye:

Based around melodic piano, this song, which takes its name from the novel by JD Salinger, is the one that takes longest to get under you skin. Constantly evolving, the best bit is the outro – which features a Beatles-style singalong chorus.
