Is it just me or is it a bit odd that not one interview has been done with any band member? Especially Axl?

Wouldn't it be the time to call Rolling Stone and say "I'm ready to speak now", and promote this album thru some interviews?

I just find it a bit strange...

The album is coming out and not one word from anyone in the band besides Robin Finck in a parking lot or something saying "yeah I hear it's coming out".

It does seem really odd. Let's hope this is part of the plan, and there will be some major interviews and information from Axl in the next few days.

One thing to understand is that with the heightened excitement for the albums release, they don't want to spill all their beans at once. Do a big interview with Axl one day, then a few days later announce the tour, a few days after that announce the new touring lineup, etc. If you announce everything at once, then you can't milk the free promotion for all it's worth.

No need for it. The free promo is flowing like water. Save it for a few weeks down the line.

They don't have to do it now, and they can save it for later, but it has to be done before the end of the year.

The only people who have gave interviews has been Pitman and Bumble, and they are also promoting solo stuff, which I'm a bit aggrieved about. I'm sceptical they would even be out giving interviews if they wernt plugging other projects.

Unfortunately we both know that would never happen. There format is too full with articles on Trivium, Avenged Sevenfold, and that elusive three millionth piece on Hendrix.
