Axl Rose Guests on Sebastian Bach's New Album, and Vice Versa

Seems that Axl Rose will do anything to put off the completion of 'Chinese Democracy' -- and that includes making an appearance on his bosom buddy Sebastian Bach's upcoming album. The Skid Row frontman turned Broadway musical mainstay will release his first solo LP in eight years, titled 'Angel Down,' on November 20. Bach and Rose, who have toured quite a bit together in recent years, team up on two tracks -- the first single, '(Love Is a) Bitchslap,' and a cover of Aerosmith's 'Back in the Saddle.'

Speaking of the long-awaited sixth Guns N' Roses album, as a result of Rose playing it for Bach, the two singers appear together on that record as well. According to Bach, while he was listening to the recordings he instinctively started singing a high harmony alongside Rose's vocals on one track. "He goes, 'I want you to sing that on the record,'" Bach said. "So in January, I went to Electric Lady [studios in New York ], and I sang the chorus of this song, 'Sorry,' and it came out really, really amazing." This anecdote illustrates one crucial point: Axl Rose actually is releasing 'Chinese Democracy'; he's just doing it personally, and to only one individual at a time. No worries, though: He'll arrive at your home on March 12, 2026, between the hours of 9 and 1, or between 2 and 6 -- your choice.

Now, how can anyone not support this hard-rock mutual admiration society, especially if Bach's next move is to use his considerable Broadway juice to get 'Paradise City: The Guns N' Roses Musical' on the Great White Way?
