AC/DC’s Black Ice - The Review

Come Saturday, I’ll be up at Erina to grab my copy of Black Ice. Sure, I know what I am in for but I am excited. And to get y’all excited, here is my track by track review. Rock’n'Roll Train This song has been kicking around for a few months now. A great opening track that reassembles [...]

AC/DC Australian Tour late 2009?

Note that I do not have any information, just speculation. With European tour dates announced for February and March, I don’t think AC/DC will get back to Australia till late 2009. A big reason for this is the possibility of shows at the Telstra Dome and ANZ Stadium. Now with AFL and the NRL using both [...]

“Black Ice” is in the wild

Not really a surprise but AC/DC’s new album Black Ice has been leaked and can be found if you are torrent savvy. I’ll neither defend or decry the leaking of the album. It is a fact of life now and bands and labels need to learn to live with it. Flooding the innertubes with fake [...]

You can’t sell out if you’ve never bought in

It would take me all night to link to blogs and forums discussing AC/DC’s move to limit Black Ice to only Wal-Mart stores. A deal that isn’t foolproof as non Wal-Mart stores have gone to grey importing. In all this is the amusing notion that, somehow, AC/DC have sold out via such exclusive deals. You [...]

AC/DC doesn’t need iTunes

Angus Young’s comments regarding why AC/DC will not sell their albums via iTunes has caused a bit of a ruckus. A google search will turn up many an article but here are a few to get you started. The amusing comments are those that considered AC/DC’s thinking old fashioned and not fit for the modern [...]

The simple science of AC/DC

The instance of AC/DC’s “A Long Way to The Top” being mistakenly played instead of the Australian national anthem (2nd item) reminded me of something I have observed at NRL games this year. Witness a game earlier in the season an Bluetongue Stadium. A sad blight of modern times is the seeming need to fill any [...]

AC/DC’s Rock’n'Roll Train on line

And can be found on YouTube believe it or not. You’d think Angus in his school boy get up would seem a bit odd now that he is over 50. But the image is iconic and stills works. The vid is ok. Not sure on the lighting effects and the band seems “hidden” for most [...]

AC/DC’s Rock’n'Roll Train video released on Friday

The video for AC/DC’s Rock’n'Roll Train will be released on Friday. A 30 second preview is doing the rounds at the moment. I’m loving the song still. Makes me smile in a good way.

That light at the end of the tunnel? Its a rock’n'roll train.

Around 3:00pm today it was as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in joy and were suddenly rocking once more. After 8 years in the wilderness the lads are officially back. The new single Rock’n'Roll Train has been released and it is everything we could have hoped for. You can hear it at ACDC.com [...]

30 Seconds preview of new AC/DC track

Up at AC/DC’s MySpace page, there is a 30 second preview of a track off the new album. What does it sound like? It sounds like everything they have done before. Which is exactly how it should be. A plague on the house of critics who think they will be clever in pointing out that the [...]
