Just found this at another forum and found it rather curious...

This is what the poster has to say for himself...

"Finally we get to see what it will look like well at least the actual cd. The album art is ready, it has been for a long time now, but kept in extreme secretly. Plans are to present it around mid to late september followed by late november CD release !!! "


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I was one of the electricians working with the road crew for this european tour, I have been a rodie for about 7 years and been on lots of big tours metallica, korn, RHCP, U2, moterhead, stones (thats how I got GN'R job) and Manowar in december.
After wembley 30 july there was a very big party thrown by Axl for everone involved with the tour.
Everone was asking about the new album and what songs would be on it, a girl working for GN'R who was a bit drunk (in her own self importance) Let slip everything new thats been played over the last few years would make the album except "Oh my god" that would be on the B side to the first single. She flashed the actual cd to a few of us and towards the end of the night when she let more of her guard down, we took it out of her brief case and took the photo !!.
She did not have any album art, as I said it has been ready a long time and as far I know it was shown on a prevous tour/concert, but i dont know where and when.
I dont know why there is no GN'R logo on it, but by the way she was acting, she was serious when she said this was it.
Working as part of a touring road crew we must sign a contract to say we must carry out all the duties asigned to us and what happens on the road stays on the road, so sorry to say I cant say anymore than that"

sorry if this has been posted before and I've missed it!

[Communist China]

Interesting. My first reaction is to think it's fake, but it is interesting to look at.

[BlowUpYourVideo]

Don't think this has been posted before. Looks promising.

[DunkinDave]

fake

[jimb0]

My first reaction would be to copy it. ?That's what I would have done if it was Real

[Steel_Angel]

where was this info posted?..

[sjgotnitro]

This pic floated around  atleast 2 months ago. Also why would the cd have universal on it?

FAKE

[Voodoochild]

Yeah, would make sense if a employer have the artwork and brings with her everywhere, while the album isn't even finished (that's what looks like).

[MJ23]

it was Saul from gnr-banned-nation who provided this picture and although we have put his head in a vice there were nothing more to get out of him than that what was copied here.

It looks interesting, but it is real?!

TSI-artwork is weird, even more than this one - so who knows

[Chief]

sure sounds fake to me but a good story!!!

FAKE

Because Interscope is part of Universal

Exactly. There are loads of record companies of whom Universal Music is the mother-company. Look on Wikipedia under "Universal Music Record Labels"

[Mysteron]

It's fake

The mention of Regatta Music and Gain surely gives it away. 

[Mr. Nik™]

IMHO it sounds like huge bullshit

It's fake

The mention of Regatta Music and Gain surely gives it away.

Its a shame people feel the need to make up shit like this especially as it was a cool lookin design as well. Ah well never mind
