It's not rocket surgery.
A strong lead single ("Better" quality) plus your basic marketing package (iTunes, social, music/typography video, press).

No new music.
The boycott will be enforced.

Gn'R can sell tickets internationally without much effort.
It remains to be seen how much media they'd do for a new album but a businessman would want the product as visible as possible.
The problem is that's the antithesis of the NITL tour and Axl's general modus operandi.
Do they return to the VMAs in August with a new album and a next week release, as was once planned in 2001?
Time will tell.
P.S. A lot of money will be flying around Miami in late January/early February. I wonder if that's a recruitment date.

There is intention to release a new album this year and none of the current gossip since the new year is correct. Slash source.
Thanks for the inside baseball, sp1at!
For what it’s worth. “Drop” is only used as slang for “release music,” so this is either close to a confirmation or the GNR social team sucks.
True but imma take the latter.

2019 brought down a rainstorm of leaks.
Will 2020 be the year that Guns N' Roses finally releases new music?

At least it had character development and wasn't structured like a video game.
I don’t entirely disagree but really the only character development was Luke and Luke in addition to not being the focus of the trilogy had questionable development at that so it’s pretty much nil.
The way everything is staged is passive and boring. Rey, join me! Why? Uhhh... because... reasons.
I like ROS but I’m not blind. It’s heavily flawed. There are gigantic plot holes and just garbage decisions.
But TLJ, despite its baby steps of progress and improvement, consists of leaps and bounds in the other direction towards gleefully terrible movie making.

I was always against a new trilogy. The story was told. It was done.
I approached TFA with an open mind but it turned out to be an uninteresting nostalgia trip with some good characters that were woefully underutilized. I was mad on behalf of the better movie dying to get out. This mistake pretty much set the table for E8 but it did have some good elements.
TLJ is an unredeemable abortion of a movie. It’s stupid, incoherent, and self-important.
ROS has a handful of story issues, abrupt pacing and plotting, and questionable decisions but it’s emotionally engaging and rich with humanity. But the damage was done in Episode VII, let alone the Hindenburg tier Episode VIII, and while it sticks the lending, its climax more or less should’ve been Act 3 of Episode VII.
TFA 4/10
TLJ 1/10
ROS 6/10
Flawed but merits a recommendation.

I don’t care. I want good songs.
I’d be a bit disappointed not to hear Soul Monster or The General though.
#500 Re: Guns N' Roses » It's happening. » 288 weeks ago
I disagree quite strongly.
The public has the attention span of a goldfish.
Between that and past history, it’s an immediate attention grab with lead single dropping and the album the next week if not immediately.
The tour can be viewed as a big payday if things were to implode (doubtful, big money loves liquidity), The Band LLC getting money for marketing expenses, or just another year another tour.
