New Guns N' Roses song to appear on Rock Band 2


Guns N' Roses A decade and a half after releasing its previous album, GUNS N' ROSES plans to put out a new song in September — on the video game Rock Band 2. MTV expects to announce on Monday (July 14th) that the sequel to its popular Rock Band game will include 'Shackler's Revenge', a track from the Guns N' Roses album that has been in the works for more than a decade, said people familiar with the deal who spoke on condition of anonymity because the arrangement has yet to be announced.

The inclusion of the song on a game suggests that the Guns N' Roses album, Chinese Democracy, will come out this fall, after years of delays. Axl Rose, who has selected replacements for the other original members, has said that the album is finished, but a release date has not been announced.

MTV and Universal Music Group, Guns N' Roses' label, declined to comment on the deal.
