Re: Chinese Democracy Starts...(Rumored GH Re-Release in June)
Ok...now i'm pulling this out of my ass...but like rather than evade his deal...might this not be a wind-up to actually releasing Chinese Democracy? Like couldn't hurt to remind a causal listener why GNR was a good band...then release a new album...a few months after. A GH album isn't for the fans like us who already have all the records. Its either gets bought by those reliving their youth who dont follow the band - who then might pick up the new album for the hell of it after re-enjoying the tracks they grew up hearing...or by new kids who might check it out cos they've heard their parents talk about the band (same reason I checked out the beatles as a kid)...if they then dig the music then they might be interested to hear a CD follow up.
Not saying it will happen.
But It helps to keep the brand alive I'd have thought.
When you spend 15 years on a record and your best idea to promote it is releasing your old band's hits, then it cannot get more pathetic. BTW it really can't get.
Re: Chinese Democracy Starts...(Rumored GH Re-Release in June)
maybe this is just a new pressing...but somehow its getting received differently? i cant find the news anywhere else so seems kinda weird
It's already on Gigwise, The Element, and NME. Give it a few hours and it'll be all over the net. I don't think it can be a new pressing... they're constantly pressing copies of albums and they never make news like this. This is getting retarded.
Re: Chinese Democracy Starts...(Rumored GH Re-Release in June)
I wonder if this could be that double disk thing "Welcome to the Jungle:The Very Best of Guns N Roses"
but NME has gotten their lines crossed...if Axl gets to release his own version of GH it would make much more sense to me
anyone got those pics of the artwork of that double disk GH?

It probably just means there'll be a new promotional push for the album, press a few extra copies put a couple of the adverts on the tv etc and you can cash in on the fathers day gift rush.

For the record, I also love GN'Rs cover of SFTD, but on topic this is stupid if it's the same GH.
