Guns N' Roses leak...

Billboard.com | Read Full Story >

Nine purported “mastered, finished” tracks from Guns N’ Roses’ 14-years-in-the-making album “Chinese Democracy” were leaked online yesterday (June 18) by the Web site Antiquiet.com, prompting a quick cease-and-desist from the band’s handlers and the removal of the links.

Six of the songs have already leaked in one unfinished form or another: “Better,” “The Blues,” the title track, “Madagascar,” “IRS” and “There Was a Time.” But these versions appear to be much further along on the path toward completion, and feature new touches like organ and tambourine on “IRS” and a beefed-up chorus with multi-tracked vocals on “Madagascar.”

The three previously unheard songs are “Rhiad and the Bedouins,” “If the World” and a track whose title is unknown.

People are saying it was leaked by Axl's wig.

#4 Hesus says:

Well, sounds like Axl knows he doesn't have a hit. These tracks are garbage.

#5 ?? says:

None of you morons would know compelling music if it came up and bit you in the ass. These leaked songs are by far the best, mst artistic music to be made in the past 15 years. It's thoughtful, poigniant and beautifully crafted.
