Skirt Or Bust (Audio CD)

Customer Review

"Rock Or Bust" was released in late November 2014 and is the 15th worldwide album by AC / DC. Recorded it was Angus Young (lead guitar), Brian Johnson (vocals), Cliff Williams (bass guitar), Phil Rudd (drums) and for the first time on CD Stevie Young (Guitar), which has the Malcolm dementia Young replaced. At this point, all the best for Malcolm Young! Produced the album again Brendan O'Brien, who was already at "Black Ice" at the start.

I can not understand all the positive reviews here. "Rock Or Bust" features 11 average AC / DC songs. Not a single track is one of the best, let's say, 20 songs of the band. The songs are all very short (`emission is Control` with 3:41 minutes the longest piece). And thus is "Rock Or Bust" with nearly 35 minutes and the shortest album the band's history. If the 11 pieces would be great, the short term would not mind. But if they are not (class). Most liked me `rock or bust`,` Play ball` and the melodic rock `The Blues Away '. Sorry, no songs are like `wire` Live,` TNT`, `Let there be Rock ',` Sin City` and `Back in Black` available. Longer solos can be heard from Angus (no longer). Everything sounds very similar to the solos of Angus (not bad, but nothing special).

Of course, "Rock Or Bust" is not really weak. It can be good to hear, especially if you are traveling in the car. However there are no real highlights, which used to Hauf. And I am not among those who say "Everything was better". AC / DC were previously but really better. Listen to times after "Rock Or Bust" `Whole lotta Rosie` and you'll know what I mean.
Thus, I can bring myself to only 3 stars, more is not possible. You can buy the album, but it does not. Thus, only a conditional purchase recommendation.

Fine and precise balance. Rank: 5/5
