AC/DC
- Black
Ice
It will
be extremely
difficult
for
these
Aussie
rock
gods
to release
an album
that
sucks.
If you're
a lifelong
fan
it will
fulfill
all
your
requirements.
If you're
still
wet
behind
the
ears
and
hear
them
for
the
first
time,
it may
well
be a
case
of your
expectations
not
attuned
to the
killer
old-school
hard
rock
sound
as opposed
to the
modern
rock
prescripts
promulgated
on radio
and
TV music
channels.
But,
just
because
these
guys
have
been
going
since
the
1970s
is not
enough
to simply
hail
them
as masters
- they
have
earned
that
spot
because
their
music
is a
brilliant
mixture
of the
pure
rock
ethic
with
a simplicity
that
is irresistible
(unfortunately
to the
extent
that
even
rock
enemies
like
Celine
Dion
has
covered
one
of their
songs!).
It is
also
no surprise
that
the
WWE
has
grabbed
the
track
Spoilin'
For
A Fight
for
one
of their
wrestling
events...
The
distinctive
guitars
of Angus
&
his
brother
Malcolm,
and
Brian's
unmistakable
vocals,
all
held
together
with
a rock
solid
rhythm
section
can
be recognized
from
a mile
away.
If you're
looking
for
15 tracks
of pure,
unadulterated
rock,
then
Black
Ice
is a
sure
shot.
The
album
was
also
released
in digi-pak
format
with
a variety
of logo
colours
to choose
from
(interested
to know
which
one
sold
the
most
- my
guess
would
be red...).
