It's taken ten years and an unthinkable amount of studio time but perhaps the most highly-anticipated album of all time will finally hit shelves this fall: ladies and gentlemen, Guns N' Roses' long-fabled 'Chinese Democracy' will be released on Sunday, November 23rd. Before you pinch yourself, there is a catch of sorts: It will only be available through Best Buy. Hence the Sunday release date as opposed to the industry-standard Tuesday. Of course, we're just happy for a release date at all, at this point.

We'll see how going exclusively through Best Buy shakes out for Axl Rose and his hired Guns, but this move is certainly not GNR's first unconventional record release. Their previous two studio albums were both released on the same day in 1991 ('Use Your Illusion' Part I and II, respectively).

While you're at Best Buy, don't forget to pick up CD-R's. After all, your friends will want to hear this too. (We're kidding. Seriously.)
