Previous AC/DC album Black Ice had some pretty worthy moments, most notably lead single Rock’n’Roll Train. The first taste from Rock Or Bust, the first album without national treasure/icon/god Malcolm Young, isn’t a reassuring one. It’s standard AC/DC, a solid bluesy riff from Mal and Angus’s nephew Stevie Young, not too much solo action from Angus, a lacklustre chorus. But hell, new AC/DC is new AC/DC, and AC/DC are the greatest fucking band in the world. Get well, Malcolm.
