Two big releases have been announced for March of 2007. The first is the eternally delayed, endless parodied new album from Guns'n'Roses. The important news? It's still called Chinese Democracy, it cost more than $13 million to make, and features only one member of the band - frontman Axl Rose. Mr.Rose wrote an awful lot about it on the band's website:
To say the making of this album has been an unbearably long and incomprehensible journey would be an understatement. Overcoming the endless and seemingly insane amount of obstacles faced by all involved, notwithstanding the emotional challenges endured by everyone -- the fans, the band, our road crew and business team -- has at many times seemed like a bad dream in which one wakes up only to find that they are still in the nightmare. Unfortunately, this time it has been played out for over a decade in real life.
But Guns'n'Roses isn't the only multi-platinum act delivering a new album in March. The month will also see the return of the Madden brothers of Good Charlotte and their album, Good Morning Revival. The album will feature collaborations with members of Avenged Sevenfold. Two of them also appear in the video for "The River," the first single from the record.
