It's getting pretty obvious now........

[bucketheader]

Look, with less than a two week period to go and no form of any release scheduled which of course a company would have to do for an album to be released successfully into the commercial musical market, Chinese Democracy is surely not going to come out this year.

I'm using this thread to voice and ask for the people's opinions on the non-release, which of course is true....

I've literally been a fan now for god knows how long, and it's nice and all to see our favourite band kicking ass and taking names, but no way is it possible of a release in this two week timescale in todays music industry

I know i'll get people going "zomg wtf it's coming this year" as replies but look realistically:

He has not said on tour that it's coming out comparing it to the use your illusion era:

This here is my favourite song from the new album, which of course you'll be hearing soon....this one is called Estranged

Also, the fact that there has been no PR as such except for "Chinese Democracy will be coming this year, says Rose" etc.....

Chalk this one up, it took Brian Wilson 36 years to release Smile, but he was a deranged babbling maniac for 25 of those years.


And so this is one diehard fan, who is taking it on the chin.

I'm not a happy bunny, because quite frankly I thought it would be this year for sure.

Shush  

It's be out!!

[SlashNBurn]

Let's hope you're wrong, but I too doubt it........

It makes no difference if it doesn't come out till next year, I reckon it'll still sell loads.....just because of the name GnR

[Robbie]

I think if it's not coming out someone should have atleast told us by now!!
Instead of having everyone waiting around for nothing!!

There is no question there dude wtf
It's just the fact that he knows about the fans waiting forever on this album and he wouldn't have said anythin if he didn't plan on releasing it!!

[bucketheader]

i have some severe doubts.....

lets look at Velvet Revolver's album

3x Platinum

"2004's Rock Record Of The Year-Kerrang"

the promotion for that was quite frankly a mass leviathan of promos and such, Slash on MTV2 and Duff on the NY Times

I noticed that other than Axl, no other members have been on TV, which is weird considering that they're a band and that they should be promoting that album that they've worked on for 7 years as well

Two weeks ago I would have said "oh sweet, it's coming at the end of the month", but no companies or distributers have information........

[Robbie]

Yeah but come on besides the die hard fans who is gonna care what they have to say!!
Axl alone represents GNR today!!
No one wants to hear from some replacment for Slash, Duff etc

It's not my opinion its the publics

[bucketheader]

having said that in 2002 we heard from Tommy and Dizzy

so that's a wrong point right there

[Axsalute]

The cd is coming SOON. Axl will not let us down my dear

[Robbie]

and who cared ????

Why don't you just relax? I personally don't care if CD is released the 21st or 28th or next year. I'm happy enough by seeing them on tour again and from what I've read they're doing great.

Don't get stressed because of a record release, there's many other important things to be concerned about... that I refuse to get worried by something (CD release) that will make me feel happy when it finally happens.  

[bucketheader]

and who cared ????
 

well i was saying to people "oh did you see the Guns N' Roses interview last night" and people genrally said "yeah, who were those guys", after telling them, they became interested and came with me to see them at Leeds that year, then this year I saw them 12 times, each with different friends

It's not as though i'm playing the spoilt kid who doesn't get what he wants i'm just saying a release this close to the end of the month with all the points I made is ridiculous.

An interview in Q or Rolling Stone this month would have made me believe, but it's ridiculous.

[Robbie]

What the hell are you on about you asked random people and after telling them they became interested??
This is some kind of proof that people are interested in the new members because different friends came with you to each show?

i'll wait till merck retracts his "thirteen tuesdays" comment before i abandon hope.
