LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - China's Internet censors are apparently trying to block fans from accessing a website related to Guns N' Roses first album in 17 years called "Chinese Democracy," according to AFP.

The website chinesedemocracy.com was inaccessible in China and searches for "Chinese Democracy" were blocked to China's largest Internet portal.

Fans in China were still able to access the music through the band's MySpace page.

"This is the first time we've heard about it," a ministry spokeswoman said, when asked about the album and reports that it had been banned in China.

"I don't know if they're banned or not," she said. "It might be a rumor."
