Guns N' Roses have "three albums worth" of new material

Guns N' Roses are set to release a new album in the not-so-distant future, and frontman Axl Rose has written more than enough material to fill a full-length record. 

The band's guitarist, DJ Ashba, told Australian radio station Triple M that Rose has produced enough material for three studio albums:

"(Rose) has a lot of great songs up his sleeve. He probably has three albums worth of stuff recorded."

"He just sits down at the piano and plays. I'm like, 'This is amazing. People have to hear this song.' And he's like, 'Ah, this is something I'm tinkering on'. He's just a genius when it comes down to music and I just cannot wait to sit down with an acoustic guitar and just write. He's just got this gift that's very, very rare."

The band's last album, 'Chinese Democracy', came out in 2008 and you can watch part of their set from Reading Festival last year here:
