Indies Sue Guns N’ Roses for Copying Songs

The labels say “Chinese Democracy” clipped music from a German musician.

Two independent record labels sued U.S. rock band Guns N’ Roses for $1 million, claiming the group used portions of two songs by a German musician on their last album "Chinese Democracy."

Guns N’ Roses and Universal Music Group’s Interscope-Geffen A&M label were sued by British label Independiente and the U.S. arm of Domino Recording Company, who own the licensing rights to songs by German electronic musician Ulrich Schnauss.
