The FBI is sending a message to those who would consider leaking unreleased music files. Either that, or Axl Rose is really well hung connected. When the blogger at Antiquiet decided it was worth the mad traffic hits to leak those Chinese Democracy tracks even before Guns N’ Roses released them, I guess he never figured anyone would care. Naturally, that assumption was wrong:

Two “Mulder and Scully types” tracked him down at his workplace and questioned him about where he obtained the nine unreleased Guns N’ Roses tracks that he distributed through his website, pictured to the right.

The agents also visited him at his California home at 7 a.m. Tuesday, according to Rolling Stone. “I wasn’t sure if they were going to come by with a warrant and trash the place, like in the movies,” Skwerl told the publication. “It was nothing like that.”

The authorities wanted to see the original files, which Skwerl had obtained from an undisclosed source. However, he had already deleted them per Axl Rose’s legal staff. So he directed them to copies of the songs that were copied all over the internet after his blog first posted them.

This guy is lucky that the FBI didn’t seize his computer’s hard drive. This blogger had even attempted to justify leaking those music files because the fans were just tired of waiting. C’mon, dude… Axl may be a huge primadonna, but that’s still a total dick move.
