Wednesday, October 22, 2008 - Guns N' Roses - Official Statement From Geffen Records; Official Site Updated
"For the first time in a long time the official Guns N' Roses website, GunsNRoses.com, has been updated. No official statment or letter from Axl Rose, but a text on a black wallpaper confirming the November 23rd release date with the title track 'Chinese Democracy' pumping in the background. It's time for Round 2!"

Another post reads:

Chinese Democracy has finally arrived. One of the most highly anticipated albums in rock history, the long-awaited Chinese Democracy marks the first album of new material from Guns N' Roses since 1991's simultaneous release of Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II. With a frenzied energy, Guns N' Roses arrived on the music scene in the mid-'80s and rock was never the same. Now the enormously influential G N' R is ready to rock once again.

Chinese Democracy (Black Frog/Geffen Records) will be available globally on November 23rd on CD and vinyl (accompanied by a free digital download of the tracks), and as a separate digital album.

Produced by Axl Rose and Caram Costanzo, Chinese Democracy includes 14 tracks. The title track and first single from the album, 'Chinese Democracy', will be released to radio at 5 AM (EST) today. Two of the recordings have been recently released - 'Shackler's Revenge' debuted September 14th in the Rock Band 2 video game and 'If The World' debuted October 11th in the film Body Of Lies.

"The release of Chinese Democracy marks a historic moment in rock 'n' roll," said Irving Azoff and Andy Gould, Guns N' Roses' co-managers, "and we're launching with a monumental campaign that matches the groundbreaking sound of the album itself. Guns N' Roses fans have every reason to celebrate, for this is only the beginning."

Thursday, October 9, 2008 - Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy Release Date Confirmed
According to Billboard.com, more than a decade after its conception, Guns N' Roses Chinese Democracy will finally see the light of day before year's end, sources close to the situation confirms to Billboard. The set will be a Best Buy exclusive and will be available Sunday, November 23, rather than the usual Tuesday.

Beyond enticing pre-Thanksgiving shoppers, the move is tied to the structure of Best Buy's sales week, which runs from Sunday to Saturday. As such, "Chinese Democracy" would not be eligible to chart on The Billboard 200 until the week of Dec. 1, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

In the run-up to release date, album track 'Shackler's Revenge' will debut in the video game Rock Band 2, while a portion of "If the World" is playing over the end credits in the new Leonardo DiCaprio/Russell Crowe film "Body of Lies."

In addition, GNR's seminal 1987 debut, Appetite For Destruction, will be reissued on vinyl on October 28 via Interscope.
