Hearing the band has already recorded is...FANTASTIC news. That leads credence to them recording again later this year.

Wouldn't it be great if they really came out with a new album surprisingly fast? I'd love it for sure.  :thumbsup:

If it was DJ with his "I got 12 songs" or "Axl's got a lot of stuff up his sleeve" stuff he's been spewing out for the last 2 years, I wouldn't give a shit.

But Richard? Now that's what makes it more interesting.

It would be great and even more surprising. I just chatted with Richard, he confirmed they are trying to get a record out this year.

That's good news but we all know it will come down to Axl. 

I just really hope that Axl is in the mindset of wanting to release a record this year, it would be great to hear something new from these guys.

Having Richard repeating this, makes it even more interesting...
Let's just hope the record companies or any other shenanigans won't get in the way.

And that will almost certainly happen...

Most certainly not, but it WOULD be a real scoop!

there surely wont be a new album this year! there ALWAYS was smth. coming in between delaying tentative release dates multiple times. given a pretty heavy tour schedule and more touring in the fall i really cant see them doing all recording, mixing, mastering in the free time...

"I’ll be out with Guns in May, June and July and then we have to finish up some more recording and hopefully get the record out and be on tour in the fall in the States I’m hoping."

 :rolleyes:

This old gag...  haha, I remember getting all hyped when hearing this type of stuff way back when  :shy:

Good on Fortus though.. dude seems like he's keeping busy.

GN'R to tour Europe, release follow-up to CD, then embark on Fall US tour?

You’ve been out a long time with GNR, haven’t you?

Yeah and I was out with Thin Lizzy last summer. Then I came back and did three months with them in Europe, came straight back and I’ve been out with Guns since then. We went straight in to rehearsals and recording and down to South America for six weeks and then started in the US and we’ve been gone the whole time. So I just got home.


So contrary to the official line of 'no studio time', Fortus has revealed the opposite, that GN'R have indeed to some extent been engaging in studio exploits. Whatever that means.

So what else do you have going on for the rest of the year?

In May, I go back to Europe with Guns and luckily, Thin Lizzy is going to be out with us, which is going to be awesome. They’re going to be supporting us so I’ll be able to play a couple of songs with them every night. But I’ll be out with Guns in May, June and July and then we have to finish up some more recording and hopefully get the record out and be on tour in the fall in the States I’m hoping.


Later in the interview Richard again alludes to further studio time (this again acts as confirmation to studio efforts happening already), sometime in the immediate aftermath of the European tour GN'R aspire to complete the follow-up to 'Chinese Democracy' and release the 7th installment in the Guns N' Roses discography.

Why wouldn't you hold your breath?!  A GnR member said whats going on! How could you not be totally convinced that the album WILL be out this fall?
