Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Why is the next new Gn'R album called Chinese Democracy?

Is it because the Chinese as a nation are over controlled?. Something about Tiananmen Square protests of 1989?. Does it have something to do with their shit attitude towards animals? Even Google can?t operation properly in China. Is Axl hopping with the release of Chinese Democracy then things might chance for the better.

A friend posted me this link today. Its secret footage shot in China. After seeing it, I kinda put me off fur and people who wear fur for life. Doesn?t Axl like to wear fur coats???

 :(  :(  :(

because the first was called 2000 intentions (for the year 2000).  when that came and went, Axl needed a name that couldn't possibly occur before the event happened, hence, chinese democracy : ok:

 :o

That's a hell of an explanation!

So far, so good, but you never know...

well i'm glad as hell that he didn't finish it for 2000 because that's the lamest album name i've ever heard  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

What does the album title have to do with the music?

Did I say it had anything to do with the music?  and hey, what's the point of this whole thread then? ;D

Remember Astro-Creep 2000?  :hihi:

No... it was a rumored album title

"Chinese Democracy" has been the working title at least since 1999.  That's when Kurt Loder first broke the story on MTV and talked to Axl by phone on the air.

As far as 'why CD', no one really seems to know.  And in my opinion he should've gone with something else.  While CD is legendary and has to stick due to the time that has gone by and limitless associations with it, I think the title itself as well as the whole marketing trip sucks.  I hate the new China-funked GN'R logo.

I don't think the album was ever titled 2000 Intentions...
Wasn't that just a rumour that came from Hit Parader, or something like that?

I could be wrong, but I don't remember 2000 Intentions ever being mentioned by anyone in the GNR camp.

Axl Rose - House of Blues, 1/1/01

I can't get that image outta my head, its going to stick with me for months. It goes beyond what my mind is capable of thinking of how much pain that dog must have felt.

ARGH!  Me to!!

Well, its better than no logo at all. ::)

Well  I liked the old one better... ;D

Axl probably just named the album after the title song, 'Chinese Democracy'. A lot of bands have done that...

i guess he liked the sound ot the words......

It's a pun.

China doesn't have any democracy and we don't have an album :peace:

OMG:

Clearer with sound:

That is without a doubt the most brutal animal abuse video I have ever seen.
Are these people human? Atleast they can kill the animals rather than skinning them alive.  :rant:

Perhaps Madagascar88 did the video and it is fake...






Just kidding. :peace:

NIN's Trent Renzor has got behind the saving of cats and dogs in China too. He's even made a made video:

Sir Paul McCartney slams Chinese fur trade, vows no future concerts in China. Nice one Paul.

I sure hope Axl's Guns n'Roses follows suit  :)

Because it's AXL Rose's Album. IF it is George Bush album, I'm sure he will name it " Iraq Invasion"
Hahahahahaha....just kidding...

Because Chinese Democracy is an oxymoron. Kinda like the thought of a new Guns N' Roses album :P

it?s a cool name=)

why not

yea i've been thinking about the title of the new album recently...

given what has happened politically in the last 5/6 years, I think it would be an appropriate time for axl to rename the album, to comment on the bush admin. and the war on terror, etc.

for example he could call it 'american democracy,' sort of a satirical and sarcastic comment on how the bush administration, like the communist party in china, manipulates the american public (e.g. war in iraq) for their own benefit.  americans think they have democracy but really, when like 66% disapprove of war in iraq, it's not really a democracy

if you think wearing fur from raped animals are bad, take a look at you own goddamn clotes, they are most likely made from real human beeings that suffers under the exact sam conditions.... suck on that.

I don't think the person that made my clothes or pretty much everyone elses was skinned alive by a fucking chink asshole. Go get fucked in the ass and come back once you wipe the white juice off.

On the subject of the album title, I wasn't that thrilled about it when I first heard it but it has such a long history behind it. If they change it, people will not know at first that it was the album that took a decade to make.

Thats one of the shittiest insults I've seen around here in a long time. Completely uncalled for. If thats all you can say to someone, then you're totally useless here. Why dont you do us all a favor and go back to mygnr.

Hey, I didn't mean to be that harsh, but I worte it right after I saw that video. I just had to put my dog down last week so i'm kinda in a bad mood and seeing that video, and that post made it worse. OK

Thats a really lame excuse for posting such garbage and insulting erose like that. The LEAST you could have done was send him an apology by PM. But you mygnr wackos are so used to constantly insulting each other that you think everybody does it. We dont. Oh well, I'm just gonna start ignoring you and some of the others who recently joined here and are trying to take this forum down to the level of the other forums. Hopefully, the other members here will do the same.

FYI, James, I have been coming to this site alot longer than mygnr but became a member here after I did there. I have been coming to this site for a good 3 years now but only started posting things in the summer. The only thing I have done in that site in the past few months have been downloading a few videos, and I look into the musician board. So don't think that just because someone makes a comment that you don't like makes them a person bleeding mygnr colors. I personally don't care for that site much either.

I remember someone on this message board telling me the song was inspired by a film: Kundun by Martin Scorsese.
I might be wrong but check it out. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119485/

chill man :hihi:    i don`t like mygnr either, but you are recently posting about this a little to much i think : ok:

Animal Help - Help Animal's
http://www.truecolor.741.com/ANIMAL_HELP.HTML

There are links to NIN's Trent Reznor's bit he did for PeTA, Sir Paul McCartney on the BBC and a Pamela Anderson poster.

my point is that we as human beings are so double talking when it comes to fur animal and shit like that... we eat meat, fish and pultry every day even tho we don't need to, we cut down the forrest and kill off lots and lots species even tho we don't need to, we buy and wear clotes from slave owners, even tho we don't need to etc. etc. I'm not saying i'm a fan of fur clothes, but i won't go around throwing shit at'em just because they have other preferences than most people. to me it sounds mostly like a jelous call, or just simple double talking jive, motherfucker!...

Animal right? Yeah, it's good, but what does it have to do with CD?



/jarmo

Maybe Axl plans on a release date announcement during a PETA commercial? :hihi:

Yeah, thats what I said...  but then I read the first post of this thread.  (and deleated my post) :yes:

Why is it that anytime I mention something more than once, somebody mentions it? Oh I forgot, I'm the only person here that has repeated themselves so I stand out. :confused:

no but you included the word "mygnr" in at least 5 posts the last days :hihi:

Well, I've noticed that more people from "insert word here" have been posting here lately, and none of their posts have been constructive. You can always tell who's from "insert word here", because their posts always have a negative, insulting, smart ass vibe.

Ok, so everyone from now on that says something you do not like is from mygnr?  ::)

O yea, by the way, don't your posts usually have a negative vibe?  :yes:

You haven't been here long enough to come to that conclusion. Even if they are what you consider negative, my posts are never insulting, and I dont attack other members. The extremely high amounts of class and intellect in my posts completely counteracts the slight negative aspect.

I have been reading these boards for a few (3) years now but started posting during summer '05 as stated above.

I never said your posts are insulting or attacking the other members.

That last line just shows you how much of a smart ass you are.

yeah but at least he isn`t insulting other board members like you?re doind right now : ok:
