The pair of songs is the legendary rockers’ first release in two years, following ‘Perhaps’ and ‘The General’ in 2023.

Of the pair, ‘Nothin’ is the slower of the pair, taking on the form of a rock power ballad with thick, retro-sounding keyboard chords and a characteristically elaborate burst of soloing from Slash. Meanwhile, ‘Atlas’ is a mid-tempo stadium rock tune.

Check out ‘Nothin’ and ‘Atlas’ below:

Guns N’ Roses confirmed the two new songs were coming when they announced their huge 2026 world tour last week, shortly after completing a run of mammoth gigs across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America earlier this year.

New dates will see Axl Rose and co. visit Mexico and Brazil at the start of the itinerary, before heading over to Europe for more gigs. They will wrap up the dates by playing at stadiums across the US and Canada.

The dates kick off in Mexico on March 28, and continue into April with nine huge shows in Brazil. In May, the band will make two stops in Florida before continuing the tour with a series of European gigs in June and July. These commence with two shows in Poland, and are followed by a show in Dublin and a previously announced slot at the UK’s Download Festival.

Other gigs include stops in the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Belgium, before the ‘Welcome To The Jungle Hitmakers’ head over the pond again for North American shows. These kick off in North Carolina on July 23, and wrap up on September 19 in Georgia.

Meanwhile, guitarist Slash cast doubts on the band ever playing the Las Vegas Sphere, saying that it was unlikely as the venue is “not really rock and roll friendly.”

Before then, he hinted at new Guns N’ Roses music, saying that “everybody [in the band] is thinking about it”.

“There’s so much material at this point – it’s a matter of having the discipline to sit down and fucking get into it,” he said. “But the thing with Guns is, in my experience, you can never plan ahead. You can never sit down and go, ‘We’re going to take this time, and we’re going to do this.’ Every time we’ve done that, it falls apart.”
