MATT SORUM Says He Was 'Pleasantly Surprised' By 'Chinese Democracy' Single

November 24, 2008

The Rockerrazzi web site conducted an interview with former GUNS N' ROSES and current VELVET REVOLVER drummer Matt Sorum at VH1 Classic's Rock Autism Celebrity Bowl-Off, which took over Lucky Strike Lanes in Hollywood on Thursday, November 13. The evening benefitted three autism organizations and raised funds which will be donated to the charities: hollyrod4kids, ACT Today!, and The Doug Flutie, Jr. Foundation for Autism. Watch the one-and-a-half-minute chat below.

Asked if he's heard any new GUNS N' ROSES material, Sorum replied, "Yeah, I think it's cool. I heard the single ['Chinese Democracy']. I haven't heard the album. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the single. I like the way it was mixed. Axl's [Rose] voice sounded great. It wasn't a song I worked on 15 years ago. I don't remember that riff."
