Date set for Chinese Democracy
Chinese Democracy has now entered the public lexicon as ‘promise that never delivers’, but in November Guns N’ Roses will finally drop its embattled sixth album. FasterLouder has received confirmation from Universal Music Australia that it is indeed on its way, although an exact release date has not been set.
The (multi)-million dollar question, though, is will it be worth the wait? Chinese Democracy certainly has a cracking back-story. Axl Rose began work on the album way back in 1994, allegedly chalking up more than $13 million in production costs along the way. A long list of executives and producers has been called in to steer Rose towards completion, but the frontman has been distracted by lengthy lawsuits and personal upsets. The album has been so shrouded in secrecy that an American blogger who leaked some of its tracks in August was arrested and charged.
It’s hard to believe that after such a tumultuous (and not particularly fan-friendly) history, Chinese Democracy can shed its baggage and go gangbusters. In November, we’ll know if the Gunners have still got it…
