Best Buy is excited to work with Axl to make the release of Chinese Democracy THE musical event of 2008!” “Axl Rose is one of the most dynamic and gifted writers and performers in modern music.

Longtime fans will be rewarded for their patience and loyalty to this great band, while a new generation of fans will be blown away,” said Gary Arnold, Senior Entertainment Officer for Best Buy. “Chinese Democracy is one of the most highly anticipated albums in music history, and Best Buy is thrilled to deliver this explosive and previously elusive release to Guns N’ Roses fans. Guns N’ Roses fans have every reason to celebrate, for this is only the beginning.” “We’re launching with a monumental campaign developed by Gary Arnold and the Best Buy team that matches the groundbreaking sound of the album itself. “The release of Chinese Democracy marks a historic moment in rock n’ roll,” said co-managers Irving Azoff and Andy Gould. Chinese Democracy is the first album of new material from one of rock’s most influential bands since the 1991 simultaneous releases of Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II. The title track, the first single from the album, was released to radio today, October 22. 23 at Best Buy and on CD, vinyl, and digital downloads.
#DOWNLOAD ALBUM GNR CHINESE DEMOCRACY DOWNLOAD#
The official Chinese Democracy download portal can be found here.MINNEAPOLIS, Octo– Best Buy and Geffen Records announced that one of the most highly anticipated albums of all time, Guns N’ Roses’ Chinese Democracy, will be available beginning Nov. Geffen is proposing shutting down Guns n’ Roses’ official download portal because first-release rights were contracted to them, so grab it fast before it’s too late, or worse, Rose decides to yank it himself and put it on hold for another ten years. It’s $9 for the basic version and $14 for a version with an art PDF, but trust me, you’re actually getting your money’s worth this time, if only to hear some punchy, raucous rock the way it used to be, with glistening highs, thunderous lows, and every note in between. Of course, Rose has never been known as the most altruistic fellow, so don’t expect this to cost $5 or less or even “whatever you want to pay” like Radiohead did with In Rainbows last fall. Rejecting the loud and hot model of the most recent hard-rock releases, Rose and his phalanx of producers over the past 13 years have made something that even the most hardened of loud-rock haters will begrudgingly admire. I say strangely because, in what may be the boldest move of all, the sonic detail even in MP3 form is stunning. These songs as well as “You Didn’t Hear From Me,” an epic ten-minute track feeling very much like “November Rain, Part 2,” are strangely well produced.
#DOWNLOAD ALBUM GNR CHINESE DEMOCRACY TORRENT#
Rumored tracks have been leaking onto the torrent sites for well over five years, and several are found on the album (available only as a download for the time being) “Better,” “I.R.S.,” and “There Was a Time” are the most notable, as all have made their way into GNR concerts since 2002. This morning, however, a miracle happened.įollowing in the footsteps of Saints Yorke and Reznor, Rose released Chinese Democracy to an unsuspecting public. Geffen/Interscope/ Universal prayed that it might, but Axl Rose kept them at bay for more than a decade (much more!).
