They also announced the indefinite delay on the official GNR X page. Said the infamous SOON
Per the official Twitter page..it was in the reply fir f'd sake.
"Apologies for the delay in the music release today. Due to unforeseen technical issues with our distribution partners, the tracks Nothin’ & Atlas are not available everywhere just yet. We’re working diligently to resolve this ASAP. The songs will be available everywhere very soon."
I wondered where they were. I logged on to have a listen
That's a bit embarrassing for the band
#2 Re: Guns N' Roses » Nothin' » 2 days ago
Well, it is past 12:00 am in NYC… Come onnnnnnnn!!!!
The press release said 10am US time. So it'll be 5 hours at least
#3 Re: Guns N' Roses » Nothin' » 2 days ago
I was having a look to see if they were out, but obviously not yet
I note that the press release states the songs will be released in conjunction with the presale, so that is 10am US time tomorrow

Wait and see what happens
The one i told you guys about back in may ?
Also to clear the air.
My sources were wrong on the June 6th release date of Atlas and Nothing.
I went into detail and apologized for being wrong on badapplesforum i can link the the post or copy them to here if you gentleman would like.I was not trying to mislead anyone.
@sp1at if you're the same guy who used to run sp1at.com ? I imagine you would understand this more then anyone ?
I do find it coincidental that umg was expecting Chinese Democracy in 1999 but we got the orginal release of live era instead, Then again umg was expecting Chinese Democracy in 2004 but we got greatest hits instead. Now i was told umg was expecting a release from gnr on June 6th 2025 but we got a reissue/remaster of live era instead.
Notice a pattern ?Also why would Axl be talking about a marketing plan at the may 5th Japan gnr show on the iem recording for the new songs if they weren't ready for release ?
I am, and I believe you, don't worry
Guns are one of the most frustrating bands in the world for information.
But it's good to see new songs and another tour

I think the band should be looking at their end game now. Put GNR to bed
Axl should think about living a portion of his life without GNR, do the celebrity run, or just lead a quiet life.
Why do you say that? Lots of older bands still out there performing with large audience attendance. What is a celebrity run? What makes you think Axl doesn't already have a quiet life and a portion not connected to GNR? One in the mountains and one far away from the crowds. So quiet and removed, people think he's in a state of not being able to make decisions or create for GNR. Time off is different for a musician, work months on end and take months off for a good life balance, wouldn't you say?
Are we sure the band commission this guy and it wasn't the record company? I was under the impression the box set was the record company's baby and not GNR's. Something forced on them.
Yeah, you're probably right. In the moment when I read the story, that was my opinion. It is frustration I think. It's a shame
Every band has their story, and many still tour as you said. And as long as they are happy that's all that matters.
How Axl has managed to live GNR for 40 years, the mind boggles

It's fun being a Guns fan. It's a community like nothing else, it always has been

Ok…
I am, moreover was, a promoter working between Australia and the UK I know alot of people just from work over the years. I can contact management's of different people, I go between good then distant relationships with various people. People on my old website will know how I work.
It's just becoming harder to get information. This and that is supposed to happen and it doesn't.
I do alot more than here for other people, getting things from bands for people's birthdays, getting them to go.to charity events, I'm just getting to a point with GN'R where I'm struggling to do anything useful.
If that makes any sense.
That actually does make a lot of sense. I can relate to this from another profession's perspective. The most unfulfilling experiences I have professionally is essentially what you just described.
I'm going to ask you a question that may be difficult to answer in a public forum, but I'm going to try anyway. What is the deal with this band? Are they even a band? This version of the band since they reunited has just be a nostalgia tour imho. I guess what I'm getting at is why are they so unmotivated to do things that actual bands seem to do on a consistent basis?
The chemistry that was so special from 86 to 93 is just so different from the feeling I get from them now. They almost seem to just be going through the motions.
Primarily, it is a band, and they probably wouldn't say it's a nostalgia tour, but it is. Of course it is. And it's about money, it makes alot of people money, not just the band, but those around them.
I think for Slash and Duff, it's straightforward, they enjoy touring, and they can release their own music if Guns don't.
For Axl, I guess it's validation in some regard. He's had to spend years carrying everything, justifying everything. On the back of that, he has read these message boards and press stories, probably intensively, over the years. All the opinions and scrutiny. The big shows show that a few hundred people on message boards does not represent the millions who go to the shows. I'm guessing Slash and Duff probably said, let's tour, have fun and let's see what happens, no pressure. Of course, we've not had alot of new music. And it's frustrating. I've been here and about 20 years, it's a long time for just one album and a few songs.
Like you, I liked afd and the uyi albums. It was a good time for music. I've wanted to hear more music, but what can you do. I think every band has it's own story and we've chosen to follow GNR, and that's it really.
#10 Re: Guns N' Roses » New Album thread 2025 by sp1at » 20 weeks ago
And a friend of mine who went on do to even better things than me and has even better contacts, another source, he's remarried and settled down and doesn't do music much now either. He's gone on to become a DJ.
So, time has just moved on really
