Guns N’ Roses have finally released the track “The General” to streaming services after more than a decade. The band first recorded the song while making the 2008 album Chinese Democracy, and have occasionally talked about the song in interviews.

Guns N’ Roses fans heard the song live last month when the band debuted “The General” at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, with frontman Axl Rose introducing the song as one they had never played before and warned fans it “could be very interesting.” Additionally, the band released the song as a limited-edition vinyl single earlier this year.

Former Guns N’ Roses drummer Bryan “Brain” Mantia talked about “The General” with Rolling Stone in 2008, saying he reportedly co-penned “The General” in the early 2000s and claimed to be the one to give the song its title.
