I am head-banging of happiness. Rock is back in my life …finally! Not that ever left, but I was missing a bit of rough stubborn loud guitars and rough yelling voices in my every day life and now to double the joy, I just got the last new released album of AC/DC. Yeah!
Black Ice is actually a very red and hot come back of one of the greatest bands of Rock ‘n’ Roll; this album sounds as a confirmation, for Rock is the DNA of these five guys and they are full committed with their sound and their style, which by the way, is the most solid and coolest ever; it is pure dirty Rock ‘n’ Roll.
