Black Ice:
AC/DC hasn't lost their grind or their groove. An excellent CD that you can listen to out of the case from the first song until the last without skipping a track. It's that good!
Black Ice:
Black Ice being AC/DC 15th studio and their 2008 release is a standard hard rock and heavy metal light release that one has heard many times before and whilst it is not bad it is not all that interesting either. The booklet contains no lyrics but a bunch of photographs of the band and a list of whom plays what. Allmusic, The Guardian and Blender gave the album 3/5 and I agree with this. Compared to great releases like Back in Black this is not nearly as good but then again not a terrible release. 3/5.
Same old song and dance.:
This is straight up AC/DC.
There are real good songs on this but like some of their recent, they all sound the same.
It's almost like if you listen to the first song you've pretty much heard the entire album.
None the less they still kick, especially for being in their golden years.
AC/DC = AWESOME:
