(antiMusic) The release of Guns N' Roses "Chinese Democracy" is just a few days away, and with such a historic release there is a lot of news coming out about the group. So we put together another round up for GNR related stories to keep you up to date on what's going on in Axl's world.

GNRDaily.com reports that Guns N' Roses new album "Chinese Democracy" will be available for streaming in its entirety on the official Guns N' Roses MySpace page today November 20. Check it out here

There are also rumors sweeping the internet that Chinese Democracy has leaked and is being shared around torrent sites. more

To think, it only took 14 years and a budding UK filmmaker named Jimmy Reay to get Axl Rose and Slash to appear in a video together. Well, kinda. Reay and his friend Jamie DeBarge both donned costumes to appear as Gun N' Roses members past and present to appear in this video, to the new GN'R' song Chinese Democracy. You gotta see it

Speaking of videos. Chinese Democracy's impending arrival has VH1 digging into the MTV News vaults for gems from the Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose. Topping the list: October 24, 1987: Guns N' Roses Trash "Headbangers Ball" This is GN'R's first-ever appearance on MTV, and they definitely made a lasting impression, especially on "Headbangers" host Asher Benrubi (who, incidentally, looks like a cross between Ron Jeremy and your aunt's pontoon-boat-owning boyfriend). After a perfunctory interview (Axl mostly just scowls and wears a leather fedora), GN'R are given 30 seconds to "redecorate" the studio, at which point all hell breaks loose. Axl displays his superhuman strength by hoisting a casket-shaped riser above his head and tossing it at Benrubi, nearly killing him (OK, so Slash helps). Check out the full article

Now for some more fun. Our friends over at Music Radar put together a special look at "33 insane facts about Chinese Democracy," which is a must read for any GNR fan. Here is just the first fact:

It's taken a third of Axl Rose's life to record Chinese Democracy Lest we forget, the making of Chinese Democracy began at LA's Complex Studio in 1993, when Rose was a fresh-faced enfant terrible of 31. When it's released on November 24, he will be a middle-aged recluse of 46. If you'd had a baby when he hit 'record', your kid would now be sitting exams and stealing your cigarettes.
