NOT TRUE: New GNR Album handed in according to Bravewords.com

[axe]

"Universal Music sources" inform BW&BK that GUNS N' ROSES "fictional album" Chinese Democracy is done and has been handed in. All Universal BIG wigs were flown to Los Angeles a couple of weeks back to listen to it. The delay is blamed on frontman Axl Rose "not having the proper team in place" since he fired his manager, Merck Mercuriadis. As soon as he gets his "new team" in place the album will be released. September seems like the most likely scenario. Don't hold your breath.

this is stupid, september...

[GnR-NOW]

If the album is handed in, it's out of Axl's hands and the record company will make all of the decisions to when it's released.  However, I don't think this is true.

September?  No thanks!  I quit if that's true.

what a load of BS...
Allow me to post some off the wall shit about the album in some random website to stir the pot...

if universal has the album, they control the situation..

September?

And then November....

And then the Spring of 2008....

And then.....

Come on guys, if this is true it isnt bad news!  If its been handed over, it means EVERYTHING is done creative wise.  Which means that all we have to do now is wait.  And this wait isn't in vain since this time it has been handed over to tptb

Based on past behavior - If this is crap, I give it about 10 more minutes before thread is locked down

[PJ]

sounds reliable..
frame-wise
remember that the disc is only one part of teh shit.. cuz now after the habve been handed to UNIVERSAL.. they have to negotiate the promo, the money, the videos and shit.. that normally happens earlier.. but cuz this is a special case UNI said that they wont negotiate if they dont have the CD in their hands (this was confirmed by merck).. after they negotiate they have to start promo, do the single and shits..
and end of july-september date doesnt sounds so bad

You know, I trust the band to update their website. ?I wouldnt trust this untill we see something there.

I bet the guy got that info off his magic fax machine (sorry Danny, I couldn't resist stealing your gig for a second).

Ha ha.  Yeah.  This guy must buy his office products from the same STAPLES that I bought my fax machine.  Coincidently, this is the same place where the GNR camp buy their label-makers.

"The delay is blamed on frontman Axl Rose "not having the proper team in place" since he fired his manager, Merck Mercuriadis.

What does that have to do with the release ? If it's handled at the RC, then the album is no longer in Axl's control right ? Or maybe they (RC) want Axl to have a manager to book all that needs to be booked (promo shows, TV appearances, etc.)

Don't telle me they don't have 200 people ready to work on this huge thing.

"September", tell me that it's coming out of the blue ?

[Axlfreek]

If its not posted on the official web site i would say its bullshit.

[GNR4L]

I thought it takes 8 weeks to put out the album once its handed into the record company ? ?if its true shouldn't we see a late may early June release.

[Captaint]

Bravewords is a good site but they have given us false info in the past regarding CD.

[sjgotnitro]

Well in light of the other recent activity this morning I would say this is very interesting ?

[Neemo]

this sounds pretty cool...but crappy all at the same time...

GET A MANAGER!!!

[Lucky]

well... anything could happen.

the thing that makes me believe something like this is,
GNR missed the chance to participate on the european festivals this year, and if album is to come out in june last thing they'd do is go into silence mode.
