New AC/DC album - Black Ice - slated for October release?
Hi! Thanks for visiting Unreality Music! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed for regular updates.
It’s been eight years since Stiff Upper Lip, but AC/DC are planning to release their new album - thought to be titled Black Ice - this autumn.
According to the Electric Shock fansite, it’s scheduled for worldwide release on October 27th, but October 28th for North America. That’s right, Angus, make ‘em wait for it!
It’s also believed that the lead single from the album could be Runaway Train, a title that was originally going to be the name of the album too.
There’s been some controversy over claims that the album will be released exclusively through Wal-Mart in the US. It’s an increasing trend for big names acts to release through Wal-Mart, presumably to the annoyance of other music retailers. We can’t help wondering just how that deal works, and how much it’s worth to the band to sign an exclusivity agreement with the retailer…
Hands up, who’s looking forward to this album being released?

Was one of the lucky ones to hear a few of the cuts from
the new album live at the Irish Rover Pub in Sarasota, Fl.
on 12/08/2007. Brian Johnson, a Sarasota resident,performed
with Cliff Williams and other musicians to a small crowd in
the parking lot of this pub. A night I will never forget. Get ready to rock!!!
Photos from this special night may still be posted on the Irish Rover Pub website. Check them out.
