Yep. It rules.
Nothing fancy. It sounds just like every other AC/DC record, which is of course a good thing.
-
AC/DC is one of the few bands that has basically never changed their sound and the new stuff still sounds fresh.
I give it two thumbs up!

Which is better IYO, the Black Ice, or Death Magnetic?

Depends on what kind you like. I like them both a lot. Don't know that one is better than the other because they are really two different sounds. If you made me choose though I would go with "Black Ice".

This should come with the disclaimer that Sani's favorite Sirius station is AC/DC radio.

They're both definitely great albums, but as Howie said, you have to measure them with a different scale.
Death Magnetic rocks your face and balls off. At worst, it's Metallica's most rocking album in over 20 years. At best, it might possibly be their most rocking to date. It sounds like Master Of Puppets + Rick Ruben's Midas Touch. Add in the benefit of modern recording technology and it's just a better sounding record in my opinion.
Black Ice sounds exactly like every other AC/DC album they've ever done. From the first record they've basically sounded exactly the same, with the exception of Bon being replaced at vocals. Bad ass riffs, backed by steady paced rock. This album could have just as easily come out in 1976 and High Voltage could come out today, and one wouldn't sound stylistically different from the other. In my opinion, this is refreshing since most bands get old and sober and significantly decline their rockage. If it ain't broke, don't fix it type of thing.

That's the kinda of feedback I was looking for. :thumbsup: Metallica it is.

Yea well now that the album is out it will change in the next week or two.
I have gotten to hear some damn good stuff on there that I have never heard before.

AC/DC and ZZ Top are perfect examples of bands that have remained true to what they're good at...what made them popular in the first place. ZZ Top's lead guitar (Gibbons?) once said it's amazing they've made it this far since they only know 3 chords.

Yep, great album. Sounds just like they should. I can't compare it to the new Metallica album because I have not heard any of it yet. I have never really been a Metallica guy though. I like some of their music, but I have never owned any of their albums except for S&M.
Speaking of ZZ Top, have any of you with HD caught their concert that has been playing on the Music HD channel (I think the channel is called something else now)? Sounds awesome in DD 5.1.
