Nine songs from Guns 'N Roses widely-anticipated album Chinese Democracy leaked onto the internet Wednesday in "mastered, finished" form.
"Skwerl" of the Antiquiet blog didn't say how he or she came to be in possession of the tracks, which are already spreading quickly via torrent tracker sites and other means, but the post's title says it all: "We've Got Chinese Democracy and It's Worth the Wait."
Fans have waited about 14 years for this album. With at least nine songs in the can, the odds were always stacked in favor of their eventual leakage, and now that it's finally happened, the tracks cannot be unleaked.
