Now that’s the Axl I know and love. Nobody got their free Dr. Pepper when GNR released Chinese Democracy; the website crashed, you couldn’t get through on the phone, so Axl’s lawyers are filing pissed off litigious complaints: “In and of itself this campaign brazenly violated our clients’ rights in numerous respects. Unfortunately, Dr Pepper has now magnified the damage this campaign has caused through its appalling failure to make good on a promise it made to the American public.” That’s called getting bitch slapped. Surprisingly the lawsuit didn’t take 17 years. [AdAge]

I love when Axl runs into this song like WWE outside interference about 3 minutes into the song. And yes, I’ve been searching YouTube for Axle Rose/Guns N’ Roses songs all day in light of Chinese Democracy finally being released.

Well, we know that Rolling Stone gave it four stars and now it seems like heavy metal-pop culture savant Chuck Klosterman is drinking the kool-aid too. Is it possible that the album is actually good? Well, if it’s more polished than the version we’ve been listening to and trimmed away the fatty bad songs, then yes, it is possible that Axl’s magnum opus is good. As they say, “no one is more exhaustively qualified to review this album.” [AV Club]
