The new single for AC/DC was released yesterday and it keeps going up on YouTube just as fast as it gets pulled down.

Funny how 99% of the music industry howls at bands to develop and mature, ("Boy the new Metallica single sounds like a boring version of their old stuff hey") but AC/DC are expected to simply stretch their few song templates infinitely.

Is it because they got it right so long ago? From the opening seconds of new single 'Rock n Roll Train' we get the most basic of 4/4 drum beats, a stop-start guitar riff free of effects and computer trickery, and a shrieking vocal joined by a crowd chanting on the choruses. Undeniably AC/DC. Classic. Not Bon Scott classic, but classic nontheless.

Though I can't decide which version I like better. I mean it says Brian Johnson himself. I thought he'd have a bigger room.

One way or another, I'm glad it's over! Although, I did put $20 on China actually acheiving democracy before this album was released, down at the TAB. Looks like I'm out an orange note.

Oasis is just a bunch of sour euro-trash.

The bloke clearly needs a girlfriend, but still, unreal idea.
