Dr Pepper's horrible. Plus, it's only in America. And it's a bit cheeky not giving Slash one considering how Axl has screwed him over the years. Balls to this, says I.

True, but they're obviously kissing Axl's ass, and since Slash apparently shat all over him in his biography, it's not surprising.

Vegas seems to have odds on everything. I wonder what line they're giving on Chinese Democracy being released this year? No matter, unless its the single greatest collection of music ever released and the cure for AIDS, it will surely be the most negatively reviewed album since St Anger.

Does anyone actually like Dr. Pepper? I think it's disgusting.

And rightfully so. He's blown upwards of $14 million on an album that basically doesn't exist. He's hired, fired, re-hired, and then re-fired musicians with breathtaking regularity. There's even been accounts of musicians trying to get into the studio with him and help him out, and he inexplicably refuses their help. He's trashed and recorded around 3 albums worth of material, and produced what, one song? One song that was terrible. I hope this bombs, bombs big, and Geffen sues him for every penny of their's he's wasted on this.

Dr. Pepper takes like flat soda and Axl Rose looks stupid with corn rows in his hair obv.

Dethklok made me laugh mimicking Axel Rose by deleting their albums to start over causing their fans to commit suicide while waiting.

More like making a mockery out Axl, actually. They'll give out free Dr. Peppers IF AXL releases CD. It's like they're making fun of him and his delay.

Press Release from Axl Regarding Dr Pepper

We are surprised and very happy to have the support of Dr Pepper with our album "Chinese Democracy," as for us, this came totally out of the blue. If there is any involvement with this promotion by our record company or others, we are unaware of such at this time. And as some of Buckethead's performances are on our album, I'll share my Dr Pepper with him.

Axl Rose


And The Guardian's sarky take on it.

well the plan is surely that he wont come out with it and they all will have a good laugh. Like the taco bell owner offering to give away free tacos if the red sox won the world series because he was so confident that they couldn't

They should give out free product to prevent the release of such bullshit.

Fuck Axl Rose and no, no one is going to be able to defend him against my intense dislike for him and GnR.

I read a review of it sayng it was good, but nowhere near as good as it needs to be to warrant the delay.

This is the most overrated band ever. ONE decent (and I mean just decent) album? Are you kidding me? They never deserved the fame they got.

Other bands with one decent album better than GNR:

Saliva
Godsmack
Mushroomhead
Beautiful Creature

...get the idea...
