Former Guns N' Roses manager Alan Niven has filed a lawsuit against the band, claiming that they've made "repeated threats" against him in order to halt the publication of his memoir, Sound N' Fury: Rock'N'Roll Stories.
The biography, which Classic Rock described as "like Mickey Spillane stubbing cigarettes out on the hard-boiled corpse of James Ellroy," was originally scheduled to be published in July before moving back to September amid rumours that lawyers for frontman Axl Rose were trying to block publication. The book is still available to pre-order on Amazon, now with a publishing date of March 2026.
