New AC/DC Rock or Bust!!

[Frank]

AC/DC have confirmed the release of 17th studio album Rock Or Bust on December 1 – and they’ve revealed mainman Malcolm Young won’t return to the band.

He bowed out earlier this year as a result of an unspecified illness, and was replaced in recording sessions by his nephew Stevie. The younger guitarist will take part in the Aussie giants’ 2015 world tour in his uncle’s place.

Columbia records say in a statement: “Rock Or Bust follows the immensely successful Black Ice album, which debuted at number 1 in 31 countries upon release in 2008, and has gone on to sell nearly 8 million copies worldwide.

I keep waiting for these guys to give it up, but they keep coming back.....and usually better! How many albums can a band make using the same three chords over and over again? Apparently 17! Just like Status Quo, AC/DC keep finding ways to make those same old chords sound fresh and original.

I heard the new song today. It's...eh. A mid-tempo rocker like one would expect. It's called Play Ball...and yes, what you are imagining in your head is EXACTLY how it sounds for real.
