Axl Rose Speaks

“People will hear music this year,” he said. “I’m trying to do something different. Some of the arrangements are kind of like Queen. Some people are going to say, ‘It doesn’t sound like Axl Rose, it doesn’t sound like Guns n’ Roses.’ But you’ll like at least a few songs on there.” Speaking about the progress of ‘Chinese Democracy’to Rolling Stone, Rose explained: “We’re working on 32 songs, and 26 are nearly done.” Of those tracks, 13 are slated for the final album, with Rose picking out ‘Better’, ‘There Was A Time’ and ‘The Blues’ as personal favorites.

Sex Pistols Hall of Fame

Paul Cook talked to Kick Down the Doors recently about the Sex Pistols induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. He had this to say:
“As regards the Rock & Roll Hall of Shame, I don’t know what to think really. On the one hand it’s nice to be honoured like that, but are we that bothered? I dunno. It don’t mean that much over here (UK), but it’s a big deal in the U S A.”
