Free Music Review: An All Time Top 10 Rock n Roll Album!
Hit: 5 Stars
If you're looking for a handful of tunes that are filled with heart-felt insightful lyrics meant to change the world, you're in the wrong place. If you instead want an in-your-face rocker that'll kick start pretty much any party, this is the one you want to plop into the CD player. Back in Black deserves to be on every rock n roller's short list of best ever albums! Yea...the lyrics are filled with innuendo and sexual overtones, but as far as 'thumpin' classics sure to get even the dullest member in the crowd rockin', this baby warrants very serious consideration. If you like 70's rock n roll...this one's a must have!Free Music Review: 4.5 Stars- Brutally good rock 'n' roll
Hit: 5 Stars
After lead singer Bon Scott died a truly heroic death (in the backseat of a car, with enough alcohol in him to run a medium-sized brewery for five years), the other members of AC/DC replaced him with Brian Johnson and went on to produce this album. Back In Black, aside from being Johnson's triumphant debut, featured hits like "Hell's Bells," "You Shook Me All Night Long," and the title track. It went on to become one of the bestselling albums in history, and is usually considered to be AC/DC's best album. Now, I don't think that this album tops the booze-soaked masterpiece that is Highway To Hell (and I also don't think that Johnson was better than Bon Scott. He was great, but Bon was untouchable), but I can't deny that this thing rocks like a mother.
I mean, forget the hits- this thing's got "Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution," a hulking beast of an anthem with a ridiculously good guitar riff and a vocal performance that's as sleazy as it is pissed off. "Shoot To Thrill" is a rollicking pounder with some totally decadent lyrics, and "What Do You Do For The Money Honey" is a furious rock `n' roll classic. "Have A Drink On Me" is a viciously awesome tribute to Scott, and "Shake A Leg" has this totally wicked riff. And then there are the hits: "Hell's Bells" is menacing and evil and the guitar line deserves to be bronzed. The title track is a furious classic, and "You Shook Me All Night Long" is downright catchy.
The album does have a few tiny weak spots ("Let Me Put My Love Into You" and "Givin' The Dog A Bone" are a bit too close to cardboard cutout hard-rock for my tastes), but why complain? This thing is a total beast.
Free Music Review: Their best yet
Hit: 5 Stars
First album with new singer, Bon Scott replacement, Brian Johnson. Some were skeptical, "who could replace Bon's unique voice?" Well they found someone with an even MORE unique voice! Brian Johnson did an AMAZING job with AC/DC and has earned his place in the band to stay!
Their BEST album overall, amazing hits!
