I think the full scope of Axl insanity will be revealed when one day the vaults be opened and the backups of everything he recorded but didnt release or whatever he erased come to light. The whole world will be like OMG thats amazing, not knowing its nowhere near the even better original tracks he worked on himself, but then the public will just hear stuff that has been tinkered with by whoever is in charge of releasing it.

I wish him nothing but the best but one day he will be dead like all of us and everyone left be eager to slaughter everything he worked so hard to create and held so precious and what for? For others to overdub, re-record or brickwall it (think Hendrix' unfinished works that were best untouched the way he recorded them himself) and of course the money, a little money, a little more money and then some money on top of that.

Instead of releasing it somehow and with grace and dignity while he still has control himself he let it all go down the drain for others to inevitably and ultimately tarnish his legacy forever.

The older he gets, the more a "Team Brazil Estate" Limited Legacy Edition of whatever could have been Chinese Democracy II + III becomes more likely than a new album put together by Axl himself with Slash and Duiff or whoever the fuck he likes to record it with.

Excellent points.

If you spin it backwards it says “soon” over and over again...

I personally think Axls estate and music will be milked the same as hendrixs back catalogue.

You know how in pop culture many will have some frame of reference to things like Pavlov's Dogs, Stanford Prison Experiment, Stockholm Syndrome, MK Ultra, etc?

We should get a team of psychologists to study us Guns fans!

We too could live on as a reference for a certain type of neurosis or mania

 

The term you're looking for already exists: masochists.

Chinese Democracy is exactly what it says on the tin - a Guns N' Roses record. 

There have been positive signs throughout the duration of these 4.5 years and while it is deflating with how long things seem to take in the GNR world, Axl has said that his intentions are releasing more music under the Guns N' Roses name. There is only so much Fernando/Team Brazil can say to us, they won't have anything to work with until Axl gives the green light to move forward. It's a double edged sword, at least that is my interpretation, as with one side of the coin, we criticise the lack of communication from management to the fan base and on the other, they may have, in good faith, been given info from Axl that they plan on releasing an album within a 6 month time frame to then only be vilified for when it doesn't come to fruition after we are given that tidbit of information. Nobody is perfect, but the approach they chose to go down via an open forum on Reddit is something I personally wouldn't have done, though it's always easier commenting from outside looking in. 

Those leaks last year only confirmed my beliefs that Axl is sat on a gold mine.

I have no idea why fernando goes on Reddit to discuss things with GNR. If he wants to know what the fanbase wants he only has to read the comments on GNR facebook, that all mention the 1 thing- new music.

Guys, I'm still in line at Best Buy. I thought there were other people in line for the new album. The couple in front of me where waiting for a 55" LED TV.  I thought it was the name of the new album, but it turns out it was just a 55" LED TV, and they are only here for Black Friday. It's 10:16. I have a bad feeling the album isn't coming out.  Fernando lied to us.

Go home, maybe comeback in... Let's say stay away for the rest of eternity. The record is probably inside Axl's ass.

we need to take all the energy invested in this thread and nonexistant album and make a cryptocurrency 

[El Guapo 1,135]

Is it out yet?

[MAD-McK 1]

I'm so tired of this BS. I'm starting to believe we're not going to hear any new material until Axl passes. When he does, we're going to get a large tribute album with Sebastian Bach on vocals.

Hopefully people can go to the records stores next summer =) You probably know what it MIGHT mean!

I like these positive speculations. They have been even occured also here in Europe, even when we are right now in a middle of hell. Just hope this would be already over. Too much stress and worry for your loved ones. Mostly the oldest ones who doesnt always give a fuck how to protect themselves

Where I live, might be a small change for vaccination to begin in 3 weeks! We had news today that even pharmacys might start to vaccinate the older ones.

The idea that record stores not being open is contributing to a lack of new material is quaint, if not a little barmy. As is the idea that Covid has had any impact. 

Once these two things have been resolved, there will be a whole new raft of reasons you can guarantee.

oh you're so rude!!! but it did make me giggle though *spilt my tea everywhere now! damn you  *

[fantomas 179]

The record never showed up. But best Buy never let me in, so it might still be in the stock room. I guess we're still stuck in round two.

I have been saying that forever.  Closed record stores and covid have nothing to do with new music.  Its just another excuse that came along to delay something that isnt happening.  They couldnt release ONE new song during this time?  seems all other bands who WANT to, have no isses at all doing it?

Totally. One song would have been so easy to do. But not even one song exists, in my view.

Therein lies the rub my friend, I don’t think they actually want to release music. 
 

By all accounts the rest of the band and the label had to pull UYI out of Axl’s hands to release it. And we’ve all heard the Axl sob story how the record execs too over during the release of Chinese. Now Axl has full control we ain’t gettin shit.

We'll be lucky if they can manage to release the UYI box set before it turns 31.
