According to an article on musicradar.com, 4 of the Axl 'N Roses Chinese Democracy tracks leaked on the Internet last week are still available on YouTube. At this writing "Message For You", "Rhiad And The Bedouins", and "If The World" are all available. There is now also a Buddyhead remix of "If The World" also online. So, if so inclined, there you go. My verdict? The tracks are okay, but nothing to write home about. Certainly not worth the $13 million and counting cost that Mr. Rose has fanagled the label out of over the past 14 years. But seeing how much the industry has pumped into such tripe like Britney Spears, perhaps they deserve it.
In other Guns 'N Roses related news, former Gunner and current Velvet Revolver bassist Duff McKagen has made his 2001 album from Duff McKagen's Loaded, 'Dark Days' available for free legal download at this location.
