We’ve Got Chinese Democracy, And It’s Worth The Wait

June 18th, 2008 by Skwerl in Features

Well, to say that I’m living up to my reputation today is an understatement. I’d like to share with you 9 tracks from the new Guns N’ Roses album, Chinese Democracy. These are mastered, finished versions that you probably haven’t heard. I always said that the more that Axl and Geffen jerked around trying to figure out how to release this finally finished album that we’ve all been waiting over 13 years for, the greater the chances would be that it would slip out of a pressing plant or office somewhere and wind up in the hands of some asshole with a blog. So… Hey, I told you so.

THE PLAYER HAS BEEN AT LEAST TEMPORARILY REMOVED, BECAUSE IT BASICALLY BROKE THE ENTIRE INTERNET. ALSO, WE GOT A CALL FROM GUNS N’ ROSES. STAY TUNED.

I’ll let you all decide for yourselves, but if you ask me, Guns N’ Roses are fucking back, and they’ll be just fine.

    Absofuckinglutely.

    To call this groundbreaking is like saying outer space is “big”.

  46. axlchristl Says:

    The songs aren’t up here, but I tried Limewire and all the new songs are at 320 kbps mp3. I compared them to the older downloads I’ve had. The new songs are… there’s no word for it. Pulchritudinous. Gelatinous. Mind-bendingly awesome. This is the FIRST time I’ve been excited for ANY album in the last four months.

    Axl, my man, you’re back.

    actually, I lied about everything, just like this stupid website is. one big lie. OBL. Write a song with that initialism and go buy yourself some Kalmah. That’s real music.

  47. David DUPONT Says:

    Yeah, IT’s a great GUNS N ROSES come back. I’m totally agree with us…..Axl Rose is a fucking genius …. I Would hope that Slash,Duff and Matt joins with band for the most news of the years.

    So Don’t Cry…..You could be mine.

  52. dosabus Says:

    I’m on the fence. Some good songs, some bad songs. Only slightly more impressive than anything Velvet Revolver put out. I’d really like to hear the original members of GNR add their signature sounds to The Blues and There Was A Time. Axl sounds good, but everything else sounds overproduced and canned. Give me that old GNR sound to back up Axl. I’m glad to finally hear the new mastered songs (not like I haven’t already been listening to them for 5 years in demo form anyway), but my joy is tempered by the sadness of how, in my eyes, they could have been even better.

  53. s1998 Says:

    The Blues, Better = Very good.
    TWAT, IRS, Madagascar, If the World = Good.
    All the other tracks = Average.

    Interesting to hear, but 14 years? 10+ Million?
    Bring back Slash, hit the road, and play AFD :)

  68. Dave Says:

    Some of the songs i heard need to be mastered. The ones that sounded mastered were great, and fresh. Good artists mature, and always do someting different. i.e. Appetite - lies - Use your illusion - all different! That’s what makes Axl so good. I love his music then and still today. Sounds like a lot of people listen to all the new Crap! that comes out from bands, and punk ass bands. I think they don’t know if their men or women and just alot of hazy guitar and bass sounds all mashed into what they call songs. They just sound like cheap versions of all the great bands before them. Oh, and by the way, who mixes and masters this new shit anyways. They should lay off trying to get so much onto one track. (you get paid by the hour, not how many tracks you can fit into a song.) Rock On Axl Rose!

  69. NotquiteAXL Says:

    Look, we’ve waited this long for the album. Are we all gonna try to download all this music for free or are we gonna give the artist (in this case, Axl) what he deserves and purchase the “finished” product when it is released? I want to hear the finished product as much as anyone else but come on. Would you work 12 or 13 years on a product, only to have it taken away from you and not be compensated for all your hard work and time?!!? Here’s an idea: Wait for the album to be released, BUY IT (some of that money will go to the man some of us have loved since the beginning), listen to it. If you like it, GREAT! If you don’t, those that do won’t care anyway. These are just my thoughts that don’t amount to much but I for one will pay Axl for his time and effort! (even if it’s been an eternity! Ha-Ha!)

  70. Skwerl Says:

    sooner or later, everyone will realize that downloading music and supporting an artist are far from mutually exclusive. downloading music most often directly supports an artist financially, and it would even moreso if the labels understood and embraced the internet as much as the industries that are flourishing there.
    all the positive hype surrounding these leaks will do more for chinese democracy sales than any billboard or corporate media review.
    i for one, will buy the album when it comes out, as i’ve bought every guns n’ roses album that has ever come out, including spaghetti incident (ha), and i will also surely pay to see the band do these great new songs live.

  71. Dave Says:

    Axl will definately get my money. What if it was true what Sabastian Bach said, and Axl has enough music to release 4 albums? (I’d still buy them all!) Probably not true, but the nay sayers will get their chance to follow the rest us Axl supporters. I agree, let it be finished, then judge. You’ll be hearing alot of it, so you “Better” get use to the songs!

  72. Rob Says:

    OMG!!!!! THIS CD FUCKING SUCKS….. It makes me want to cut my ears off.. I mean really I wanted 13 years For that shit I’m sorry but Guns and roses should just shoot them selfs really this was a horrible CD

  73. Tyler Durden Says:

    This CD is awesome. My favorites are Chinese Democracy, IRS, and Madagascar. I also like Crash Diet, but that wasn’t leaked on antiquiet. I suggest GNR fans DL it somewhere; its awesome.

    What we’ve got here is…failure to communicate.

  74. want it now Says:

    I hope it comes out soon. Waited long enough.

    I don’t know what the cause of it is, but the spelling and grammar of the people commenting on this site are worse than anything I’ve ever seen. No shit.

  76. sam Says:

    everyone who is jus saying its crap without any reasoning obv jus dont like the style of music, im def gonna buy this album, i got every album and dvd made by guns and from what iv heard of leaked tracks this album although very different is still awesome. axls voice is amazing and the rest of the band sound good just very different from afd days. would i like old guns to reform of course lol but why sit complaining it aint the origional lineup when theres an awesome band here making great songs better then most of the crap new bands are puttin out there

    NO.

  80. ty Says:

    when is the cd going to come out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  81. Andy Whorehall Says:

    First off, I’ll restate the obvious. Axl Rose is an american loser. He joins the ranks of bonafide retard status occupied by fellow american tards like George Bush, his brother Jeb, the guy that runs the FOX Network, all NASCAR fans, anyone who thinks KFC’s bowl of shit is a bowl of chicken, Michael Jordan, Aerosmith, fans of both those american atrocities. There’s many more, I have a list because I think about bonafide spoiled american retards all day long. Axl is a bonafide retard. He’s just like the Avrils, the Maroon 5s, worse than the Backstreet Boys, financially pathetic like a hip hop star on Master P’s label. Seriously, it doesn’t end. If you gave me 13 million dollars to make a record, 1) I’d pay off my student loans you fucking jerk AXL. I can’t even pay back 30K, how can that fucking retard pay back 13 million? That makes him again, an american retard. Someone, like many white americans, who are given everything, and take advantage of the system by pissing on the hard working people- us. 2) With 13 million, I’d pay back my mistake, 30K, and then with the remaining 12.97million, I’d make a fucking record, and it’d be better than any God forsaken shit song he’s releasing on Dickhead Democracy. I’d hire Cheap Trick, Paul Westerberg, rescue Tommy from Axl, then, I’d have the Hold Steady along and Robert Pollard and M. Ward for kicks, oh, and how bout Neko Case on harmonies, or lead, and you know what? I could make a fucking record with my songs Axl, and pay every member I listed not only for their services but to prove a point that you a re a bonafide american retard. And, 3) My songs are better than yours Axl, 2) A record would be done, performed, engineered, recorded, mixed and released in 15 less years– and it will be better than anything put out by any band this year– except of course for the Hold Steady or R. Kelly’s next record. I am a music geek and I love Appetite for what youth is left in me that that record helps represent, but, this Axl Dickhead Democracy shit has to go. Honestly the smart move for Geffen would be to ban the release of this record, hold it hostage, then, wait till Axl dies, and release it. That’s fair game- do to him what he did to Geffen, and to his fans. Axl Rose, you are a BONAFIDE AMERICAN RETARD.

  82. DustNBones Says:

    i think that’s a bit harsh Andy Whorehall.. WTF? R.Kelly ? R. Fuckin Kelly? that made your whole argument obsolete

  83. Andy Whorehall Says:

    You obviously didn’t get the joke that I put R. Kelly’s well documented recorded yearly release output above Axl. That makes you– obsolete ; ).

  84. A. Sinatra Says:

    I heard the tracks and they’re nowhere near Appetite level of good. Some aren’t even close to Lies. It would be great if we’d finally hear a new GnR CD soon but its’ beginning to feel like wanting to see Farrah Fawcett naked. If you grew up in the 70s you wanted to see it. Sadly it took 20 years and by then you look more out of morbid curiosity than desire to actually touch it. Axl and his cosmetic surgery is getting less relevant. It has been 20 years since Appetite came out and it has held up well. Something tells me that when/if I hear a pressed Chinese Democracy CD that it will not sound as relevant despite the freshness date. Music evolves too guys. Try putting something out that people will care about listening to twice since MTV won’t play anything except “The Hills” now. You’ll have to rely on good grace of fans. Don’t be like Van Halen and wait to reunite until it was a little embarassing.

  85. Jake Says:

    Of course I discovered this website AFTER the tracks have been removed. But aside from that, I have deep mixed feelings about Axl Rose. I think he’s created this mysteriousness about himself for a reason, on purpose if you will. I mean the guy is like a walking enigma. Personally I think he’s just trying to build up a hype. True, there’s no hype that deserves 14 years of creation so it goes beyond that. I’m not sure what he or the label he’s with are trying to do but frankly I’m frustrated and my once high regard for the man has dessipitated. I’m really bummed out about this guy. He had the potential of being something really great (greater than the mythical persona he has become which has surpassed his musical greatness). But no matter if he releases this album or not, he will never acheive that greatness which he once had. The old sound of GNR was something to be reverred, awed, blown away by but that was then, this is now. The kind of rock put out by bands that were popular 10 years ago is no longer viable in this market except for those who hold nostalgia for the past.

    like many of you, I grew up listening to GNR. AFD is a great album- one of the best- and whoever is praising Chinese Democracy is a fucking retard! I’m not even comparing this to Appetite, I’m just basing this opinion on whether the music is good. And seriously, this album is an embarassment. It’s some of the worst music I’ve ever heard. I really hope this isn’t the album because Axl is flat on half of these songs. If you like this album, you most likely have Britney and Timberlake in your collection as well, for you have zero taste.

  95. Rich Says:

    After listening to this “album” for the past month, I can only say that it has grown on me just like the previous albums. Every previous GNR album took time, one to understand what the hell he was saying, but two for the melodies to penetrate, to never leave one’s mind, and that’s what has happened with most of these tracks. IRS, eh, I could do without. If he dropped the chorus, the song would rock. I’m just hoping that these songs don’t appear on the final product, or if they do, they are a subset of a greater collection. I will buy the album(s) regardless. While I wish I could hear the original line-up again, I’m glad he moved on. He’s a master at this stuff. I think we’ll see a reunion some day, but not until it doesn’t matter anymore, not until we’ve fallen in love with the new GNR.

  96. UGK Says:

    Is it too much to hope that someone has these tracks and is going to post them on a torrent site? I get where he’s coming from with only wnating the finished piece to be heard, but cut us some slack axl, 14 years, a few leaked tracks is a deserved tit bit from the table of chinese democracy when we rarely get to see you live.

  98. Bill Milton Jr. Says:

    I’ve heard an also deleted afterwards the new songs plus last night I found and after listenig deleted Schacklers revenge on Shareaza (an hour later no version anymore to find…lawyers?) and all numbers are different but man!! that voice, those lyrics !! I will buy 14 albums and give to myself and my best friends. I do wish that Axl releases part 1 of the 3-part albums this september. Patience…..I guess.

    At the slight chance that Axl or his lawyers read this…please release the album in stores in Belgium, Holland and France and the rest of the world also ASAP !!
    We have no wall mart here.

    thanks and all the best.

    P.s. My friends from Holland tell me that GnR will be back at Nijmegen in oktober. Is this true?????

  99. Jdiggity Says:

    For all you guys comparing this stuff to AFD you’re going to be let down, AFD is one of the best rock albums of all time. This new stuff is still great though, compared to other music being released these days this shit is awesome! Chinese Democracy will be worth buying.

  104. JP from the uk Says:

    continued from above

    evolve and explore. while bands that once sounded unique and fresh (oasis for example) become tired and stale. afd was fresh gnr kept it that way. so just a suggestion for the moaners pop in appetite hit ur repeat play function an see how long it takes t get bored or go insane. and finally did sum 1 really post a msg commenting on the grammar, JESUS, GO T UR DOCTORS , i sat my school exams 14 years ago. i dont really care wat my grammar is lyk on ere or any other noticeboard.

CUT a new album with the old MATES and CALL A TRUCE ON THIS CIVIL WAR! LEST You realize your ultimate fate. GNR was the greatest ROCK N ROLL of all TIME. TIME. TIME is all is takes to make ammends. AXL if you see this contact me. I have some Inspiration for you and the band doesnt really give a shit about what happend in the past, ALL you got to do is make it right now. THEY have moved on WHEN will YOU? Join Them, They are awaiting your presence behind the MIC.

    izzy was a bigger loss to the band he provided the rythm and the grooves that make great songs, slash simply painted over them(albeit with great effect) and y shouldnt axl keep the gnr name? he didnt leave the fuckin band( a fact all the axl haters/slash lovers seem to forget) slash left, slash is now a fuckin sell out (supergroups/video games) whilst i feel axl deserves to b admired, how much money could he have made in the last decade or so, by releasing anything, regardless of whether he liked it or not? well a lot more than vr has anyway! so whilst the delays of chinese democracy have become ridiculous, u have to admire his integrity

    According to multiple news reports, a blogger suspected of posting songs on the Internet from the forthcoming Guns N’ Roses album Chinese Democracy was arrested Wednesday and appeared in court, where his bail was set at $10,000. FBI agents arrested 27-year-old Kevin Cogill on suspicion of violating federal copyright laws by posting nine unreleased Guns N’ Roses songs in June. According to an arrest affidavit, Cogill admitted to FBI agents that he leaked the songs.

    “Guns N’ Roses representatives have been made aware of the arrests and are leaving the matter to the authorities,” said band spokesman Larry Solters.
