HMV CD out 13th nov

[oneway23]

Don't think I recall seeing that one...anyone have it?

[Bumblefeet]

They are giving the same date in Ireland too

[Skinflick]

Jesue Crist....the mixing IS done...it is just changing hands before getting shipped to the stores across the world....think about what is included on a cd when you buy one....artwork, cover, credits, thank you's from each and every band member....then copies have to be made......I'll bet anyone on here that the mixing for CD was finished over a month ago....I am sure most of you realise that. I can see how people will still doubt that it will be released but it will be out this year....way too much has taken place for it not to......thank God...

[Sparksry]

I still think there would be a big announcement and the GNR site would say right on it

mixing only takes a week or two usually..

13th is a monday... so its impossible

HMV are clueless  , but albums are release on a Monday in the UK

Based upon other artists, would you expect Chinese Democracy to be released on the Monday before or after the US release in the UK / Europe?

the guy mixing the cd said "we are very pleased with the mixes" I take it its done..

and why would axl play the whole cd for a party if it wasnt the mixed version

well, then i guess, its just the mastering left. If they havent dont that thing by no also.

i actually dont know. But i think mastering is the "final touches" fading and stuff, and it can be done in a day or so...
correct me if im wrong

[oneway23]

Mastering involves things like track sequencing, as well as assuring that the volume levels are consistent between tracks, and other small final touches...Usually takes a day or 2, but again, this is Axl here, who I'm sure is right over the guy's shoulder the entire time.

[Bigphil1]

It's been a month (just about....) since Axl played the songs at his house. And obviously his CD will have been mixed, even if it was just a rough one.

Theres been plenty of time between then and now for everything to be done

yeah, thats true.. I just pray for this album to NOT leak into the internet! I dont want to hear anything before i have the CD in my hands! Well the cover...

[The Dog]

I wonder if bookies are going to start placing odds on CDs release date...or if the album will even come out this year

[GnR-NOW]

I would not put any faith in what HMV says, they are probably just taking a guess, figuring they have a 1 out of 10 chance to get it right. Didnt they say April 25 2005 last year. I like what Merck said it will be of the next 10 Tuesdays, but again he said 2005 would be the year of GNR, so who the fuck really knows

i work for hmv let me tell u this....

the compony does it all the timeif they know its a massive realise they will add soem fake ass realise that on there to build pre orders

i stopped reading after compony

but in all seriousness i think HMV is just lying, the release date for chinese democracy keeps changing all the time for them

it would be the day before. so if the UK release was 13th the US would be 14th
