Aug 8, 2012it has the raw power of AC/DC's old albums but contains more well versed lyrics by the young brothers. an explosively satisfying album. also has more Angus young guitar work in it as well

BrandonS.Oct 21, 2008It's AC/DC! Think you know what this album sounds like? Well, you're, it sounds exactly like that. Thank God. (The only unfortunate thing is that they're selling the album only through Evil--Mart and Sam's Club. I got it through AC/DC's website, so at least I didn't give Evil-Mart my money.)

JordanLOct 29, 2008Vintage AC/DC! The first album in about a decade and a great refresher of the sound of true Rock & Roll. AC/DC is a band that will never fade away, and will remain a powerhouse in Rock & Roll industry for however many years its music surfaces.

JSDec 11, 2008It's not Back in Black, or even Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, but there is no denying the awesomeness of this band, and there isn't a single half-a**ed song on the album.

ROct 21, 2008I agree that Black Ice sounds like Back in Black...but isn't that the point? Show me where in the dictionary of Rock it says a band has to change? It doesn't, so rock on AC/DC! Keep puttin' out that good good stuff.

SA.Oct 22, 2008Best AC/DC since Black in Black, 10 listens in now and it's only getting better. Only not a 10 as it could have lost a few tracks to make it punchier.

GinoP.Nov 10, 2008For a band that have 35 years in the road its a fair production, but I expected more, for me ACDC at his best was Back in Black, that is a really hard one to top.

MSNov 24, 2008Very fun rock cd. Would have been a 9 if they cut it back to 10 songs. Worth buying.

GarthW.Oct 27, 2008It's AC/DC. What did you expect? The day AC/DC does a ballad is the day the band is dead. Some complain that it sounds the same as everything else they've ever done. While everyone else tries to rock harder, AC/DC just rocks. Therein lies their genius.

DougL.Nov 22, 2008Despite the 8 year wait on putting out a new album, they stuck to their guns and kicked the billboards right in the ass. This is an epic AC/DC album with spine shivering riffs and a knack to give a group a good time. I love it, the people love it, the critics love it, it is definitely there best since Back In Black.

MarkKDec 28, 2008Same as before, nothing new, nothinig exciting, nothing fresh (one of the tunes sounds similar to highway to hell), but still a very enjoyable album. It get's an extra point because of that.

The appeal of AC/DC lies with their more-than-30-year-old commitment to the same no-frills metal groove. But that groove now seems in danger of becoming a rut.
-
AC/DC have stuck to their guns with electrifying results.
-
Scattered predictability aside, AC/DC still sound strong and hungry 35 years on, as if they could pulverize riffs in perpetuity.
