It's been 17 years since we heard any thing new from Guns & Roses, (you might or might not remember this band). After years of promising new material front man Axl Rose will release the new disc later this month.
Chinese Democracy will be available on vinyl, CD and as a download exclusively through Best Buy. Best thing about it, earlier this year Dr. Pepper promised a free soda to every person in America if Axl Rose released the disc.
Hope it was worth the wait.

Here's the commerical for the new disc as well as the release date.
