A Guns N' Roses fansite has been shut down in protest at the seemingly endless delay over new album Chinese Democracry.
The webmaster of GNRonline has released a statement explaining his decision to close the site, which comes after the mooted release date was passed yet again.
The new album from Axl Rose and the current incarnation of the Gunners is perhaps the longest awaited record in the history of rock music.
Last month it was confirmed that the album, which is now around 10 years late, would not meet its March 6 unveiling, prompting the decision by the Italian site, which explains:
"The never-ending saga of 'Chinese Democracy', the lack of respect, clearness and mutual loyalty are just some of the reasons that has brought us down to this painful conclusion. Until now our detractors have always accused us of being 'Axl fanatics' (and to a certain degree, it is probably true) but today we aren't able to sustain Axl's project anymore, neither financially nor economically. We just can't afford to waste our heads on a project that has never even taken us into consideration. We still want to believe in Axl Rose and his record and we greatly wish that 'Chinese Democracy' would see the light of day before February 2008. If that will be the case we will make our best effort to re-open the site otherwise our domains will be lost and that will be the end of it."
