Probably the most controversial and eagerly awaited rock album ever it may be, but the wait may be over for hardened Guns & Roses fans, as the band have announced they will release 'Chinese Democracy' on November (23rd), in America.

Work on the record is reported to have began fifteen years ago, following the release of 'The Spaghetti Incident' in 1993, with 'Chinese Democracy' also supposedly costing in excess of thirty million dollars to make. The record looks set to be an overblown extravaganza of US rock which will feature Brian May, Dave Navarro and a eagerly awaited 'rap' sequence featuring NBA star Shaquille O' Neil. The album is thought to be a the first installment of a trilogy, which Axl Rose hoped would be complete by 2012; although if logical mathematics are anything to go by, the third offering should be out around 2038. When the album was leaked onto the internet this year, FBI arrested a US blogger named Kevin Cogill after suspecting him of uploading the tracks. We wait with bated breath.
