As promised, Guns N’ Roses have unleashed two new songs — “Nothin’” and “Atlas” — although a couple days later than expected.
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band announced a 2026 world tour last week, while teasing that the two new songs would arrive on Tuesday, December 2nd. Thankfully, the delay wasn’t too long, as fans can now listen to both songs in the players below.

“Nothin’” is a ballad that features Axl Rose singing over bouncy piano playing, along with a lengthy guitar solo from Slash in the middle of the song. “Atlas,” meanwhile, is a mid-tempo guitar-driven rocker with Axl singing in his upper register throughout the tune.

Like previous singles “The General” and “Perhaps,” the new tracks “Nothin’” and “Atlas” are believed to have their roots in the sessions for GN’R’s 2008 album Chinese Democracy. And like those other songs, they’ve been updated and re-recorded with Slash and Duff McKagan, who were not in the band at the time of the original demos.
As mentioned, Guns N’ Roses will embark on an extensive 2026 world tour that includes a summer North American leg. Tickets go on sale to the general public this Friday, December 5th, at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster, with various pre-sales already underway.
