[edit] Reverted previous edit
I've reverted the previous edit, because the "Use Your Illusion"-era refers to both UYI1 and UYI2, not just to UYI1, which is only half the era.

Since a clean version of IRS has now been leaked and so has Better...i edited it.
- Got rid of "supposed" release dates. No point in putting them up until there is a press release.
- Added that the song "Silkworms" will not be on the album, and referenced this to a recent interview with band member Dizzy Reed.
- I fixed the paragraph speculating about songs that will be on the album by removing "Silkworms", since that was contradicted by the following paragraph. Random89 01:02, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
In March 2006, the band regrouped at the home of Axl Rose to record a cover of the Faith No More song 'Be Aggressive' for inclusion on the soundtrack for the upcoming Texas Chainsaw Massacre prequel
What's the source for that??
- There isn't one, so delete it.
[edit] Longest article?
Is this the longest Wikipedia article on an album yet-to-be released?
- I guess so, but the most albums that still have to be released don't take ten years to go through the production stage ;).—♦♦ SʘʘTHING(Я) 07:02, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NIN is synth-pop?
Under the "Sound" subheading, the article refers to Nine Inch Nails as synth-pop. NIN is industrial rock, which sounds nothing like synth-pop. Is the new sound similar to NIN or synth-pop? Berserkeley 05:15, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Naming
It is quite likely that by the time the albumn is released the name of the albumn could be an actual fact rather than a political oxymoron. --mitrebox 03:53, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Press release
Axl Rose and producers said there would probably be no warning when the album hits the shops. Although the producer gave a hint which has made peolple believe the 21st.
[edit] 'If at all'
Could anyone considering changing the second sentence from 'When the album is finally released' to 'When, if at all, the album is finally released' please not! It seems pretty obvious that it will actually be released reasonably soon. While I'm here could I also suggest we agree on a genre, because that seems to be changed at least once a week. I think we should just leave it as Hard rock. Tangerine 03 12:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
It **does not** seem pretty obvious the album is coming soon. i know you people love Axl, but give up the dream. Until it actually does come, let's assume it's not coming. -Hoshq
- Don't be stupid, if the "$13 million" estimate is even remotely correct, then the album will have to be released just to avoid bankruptcy. And if it doesn't get released, then what will Axl do? He's been working on it for so long that his name will become a joke, or at least more so than it already is.
[edit] Broken/Any Given Sunday
Removed "Broken" from the rumoured titles, as it has supposedly been confirmed. Also mentioned in the leaks section that "Any Given Sunday" is just an unused track from the Use Your Illusion sessions.
[edit] Release Rumour
Removed the rumour that the album will be released on 12-12-06. Unless there are direct-quotes from reliable sources (i.e., Axl Rose himself, or the band's management), no 'possible release dates' should be posted. - Cig
[edit] Recording date
I don't think Guns N' Roses started recording this album in 1994 because their original members Slash and Duff McKagan were still in the band at that time. They didn't leave the band until 1996.

- Doesn't really matter what you "think" (no offense intended, but it's the truth). Wikipedia only wants information that is verifiable, so don't go changing dates to something you "think" is correct. You don't have all your info correct anyways - Duff didn't quit until August of 1997. And according to this article in the New York Times, Axl began recording in 1994.[1]. Thanks Yankees76 07:38, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
ah but the album recorded in 1994 wasnt chinese democracy, that was a seperate album which wen all the orignal members left, was scrapped and turned into a chinese democracy, i dnt belive any of the songs created in thoses sessions still exists.--77.97.136.18 15:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- Supposedly, but as per WP:VERIFY the threshold for inclusion of material to Wikipedia is verifiablity. If you can find a reliable source that says all of this, then we're on to something. Until then the starting year of recording is 1994. Yankees76 05:32, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
where is your sources that the recording started in 1994? if we should have proof then you should have it too. all you have is one article as a "source". thats questionable at best. oh and once again, you don't own wikipedia so you can stop giving people attitudes. thanks for deleting my other contribution but you're still a (personal attack removed). deleteing things to make yourself look better won't change that. 21:57, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Actually I removed a personal attack - and I was nice enough not to tag your talk page with a warning for it. However I will now for the one above since you insist on attacking other editors. Continue this type of behaviour and you'll end up blocked. Also with regards to tabbing the New York Times as a "questionable source" - please review again Wikipedia's policy on verifiability and the guidelines for what constitutes a reliable source. Articles should rely on reliable, third-party published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. The Times is a credible published source with a reliable publication process. You're more than welcome to introduce a source that states the album began at a different date - however saying that you "think" or you "beleive" something to be a fact is considered original research, and Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought.

[edit] Silkworms
I'm dropping Silkworms, because unless there is a link that is verifiable as Sanctuary or Geffen Records 100% then Silkworms is still off of the tracklisting. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.61.4.60 (talk) 15:06, 24 January 2007 (UTC).
- Silkworms WON'T be on the album. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.89.165.170 (talk) 21:34, 22 February 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Chinese Democracy should redirect to the album
I think Chinese Democracy with the D capitalized should redirect to the album instead of the Chinese democracy movement because when a second word is capitalized it always means that it's a title of something so it's more likely that when someone searches for Chinese Democracy that they're looking for the album article. Chinese democracy should still redirect to the Chinese democracy movement though. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Megadeth186 (talk • contribs) 20:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Is this leaked??
I know there are several torrent sites that have albums labeled "Chinese Democracy - Guns N' Roses" and they have the same track listing. I'm not going to download it but has anyone else? Real? thanks —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.237.195.219 (talk) 09:59, 1 April 2007 (UTC).
No, the whole album hasn't leaked. The tracks T.W.A.T, IRS, Catcher In The Rye, Better, and a small part of Chinese Democracy (song) have leaked. It's likely that the album labelled Chinese Democracy on torrent sites is just a compilation of these leaks mixed with live performances of songs which may appear on this album.

[edit] Bumblefoot interview
Ron Thal didn't say the mixing was completed on April 2nd. He was misquoted by a magazine. Here is a link to the interview if anyone would like to hear whart he really said. http://maximumthreshold.podomatic.com/
