Im not going to pretend I ordered it. I didn't. I have no issues with production or unforseen delays, but the fact its left the day before to announce or no official word what is going on. No way they didn't know about it before then. It's highly embarrassing, unprofessional and amateurish. Again the biggest thing is I don't think anyone is at all surprised, which shows the kind of operation that runs this machine.

Is there any info from the band on what the plan was with digital release of The General?
The only answer we got from the genius management: "Perhaps"

again.
Point!
At first, I felt as if this was a whole new eclipsing all others biggest letdown from this band. But then reality showed up and the memory of December the 6th, 2002 reappeared.
So, you know, same shit different decade.
Doesn't change the fact that GN'R is the greatest rock 'n' roll band to ever grace this planet.

If it's delayed we gonna have a leak before the release. History says that.
Yep.
And they will have no one to blame but themselves.

Agreed, in general principle. Once again, this band can't do something that literally every band does literally every week of literally every year.
But, given the history, total shock is a bit of a hard sell a well. We know what we signed up for with this ramshackle operation.

People pre ordered something and it got delayed. Not a big deal. Happens from time to time. The product is not time sensitive where your life is now in shambles because it's not at your front door

The delay is not a big deal. The lack of communication is the problem.

Agreed about the communication , or lack thereof, from mgmt. But that should be expected and built into the overall expectation/experience. Everyone already knows that this band is generally not capable of doing things "smoothly". It's not like they won't be releasing it. What's a few more wks?

Now maybe it will come on digital platforms before vinyl. As fans anxiously await that sadness, but it's part of the Guns n Roses world, they have the most boring fans on the planet. It's us lol

one thing is almost certain it will leak before people can buy it.

Standard GnR. Gotta laugh. Or you will cry.
Vinyl releases get delayed all the time. Had a Pearl Jam vinyl just ship this month that I ordered in February.
/jarmo
Bands take 400 years between albums all the time
Bands announce then de announce then re announce singles all the time
Bands have 17 producers all the time
Bands have their managers releases statements that they “booked a tour by accident” all the time
Bands hire dudes who insist on chicken coups in the studio every day
Bands bite the ankles of security guards all the time
It’s all standard industry practice guys
Come on…
Hahahahahhahahahahhahaha
The management of the band makes the Four Seasons Trump press conference next to a dildo shop look like a fucking PR master stroke
GnR management is and always has been an omnishambles

If this ridiculous album ever comes out, I'm going to buy it 3 times.

Tomorrow is Friday in the states , when new releases come out. Maybe a digital version still comes out on Apple, Spotify etc..
It just leaked along with another one called monster. Both are good, but Monster is better.
I had to edit this as i just played it through my 80's system with the big speakers. Monster is REALLY good. This song needs to be released properly. Axl sounds great and the guitar work is awesome

That’s encouraging, still such a shame it’s been delayed with no notice.
Like others have said, delays happen, but there’s usually better comms. Can’t wait to hear them and have them officially out there!
