Axl brings (Chinese) Democracy to Wal-Mart?

Guns N Roses' "Chinese Democracy" is looking less and less like a joke these days, as leaks and various other news confirms the existence of actual songs that would make up an album. The latest, Billboard reports, is that, "according to sources," negotiations are on for the album to be exclusively unveiled at either Wal-Mart or Best Buy. Dude, way to keep rock and roll alive.

Joan Baez (and others) immortalized labor activist Joe Hill in song, John Lennon praised the "Working Class Hero" and Axl Rose is potentially partnering with one of the most notorious union busters of our age. Not to mention, Wal-Mart is terribly unhip.

— eh
