Why is this frontman smiling? Because an anonymous tipster has sent us what is purportedly the first single from Guns N' Roses' delayed-far-beyond-the-point-of-hilarity Chinese Democracy album. All we can say at a time like this is, "Holy crap!" Also: "This thing better be real!"

It's not classic GnR (except for the voice) --- but that's a pretty damn good song.
Like Radiohead goes metal?

Sounds like Skid Row.

Not terrible by any means, though.

Sounds more like Axel fronting Filter to me. But still, not bad. Hopes are actually up for the album now.

Yeah, I tried that. Still nothing. So I'm taking that as a sign.

I dunno, both bands made two decent albums and are fronted by megalomaniac douchebags, more similarities than you might think, actually.

ouch, man, this hurts my ears, it doesn't rock or anything, it just sounds like noise with Axl singing loud enough to drown out the music, and the generic guitar solo towards the end...please...

I really wanted to like this. It really does sound like a solo disc where the voice is accentuated to compensate for the lack of quality playing and musicianship.

I guess the question I have is the one every smart-ass reviewer will have when this album eventually comes out: It took over a decade to craft this swill? It's not that it's that terrible, just so completely generically, boring. It's White on White.

I turned it off at 2:52.
