While Velvet Revolver tour, the world of Slash and co's old Colleauges- AKA Guns N' Roses
- Is silent, amid rumours of writer's block. So what's the truth? Let's look at the fact...
. In four years between 1987 and 1991, GN'R released 52 songs, all but four of them originals. It's 12 years since the last proper Guns album- 1993's " The Spaghetti Incident? " - and 14 years since an album of new songs.
. Since 1997, the "new" GN'R album has had the title "Chinese Democracy". Word is that Axl has been recording and re-recording countless "Rough ideas"
. Axl is the only member left of the original GN'R. and appears to be the only permanent member, having hired a long list of sidemen- Among them Dave Navarro, Nine Inch Nails' Robin Finck and masked Buckethead- and producers, from Moby to Queen producer Roy Thomas Baker
. The last statement from Axl Rose, in March 2004, claimed he'd have the album out by " April 2005 "
. When passed, Axl will say only: "We feel really confident about the music that were working on... when it does find a wat into the light the time will be perfect."
. Slash says "I just wish the fucker would get the fuckin' record out so i could see why he took something so cool and systemically destoryed it. I want to hear where he was headed, what he was trying to communicate that none of us in the band could relate to."
. Despite the secrecy, some rough songs and rare live premieres have found thier way on-line.
