The Money Shot!
AC/DC's first release in six years could have been awful. I mean, they only recently got back together; and co-songwriter/rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young is gone. They were almost set up to fail. But they came back, powered up, to bring us one of their albums ever. Pretty much every track on POWER UP is nothing short of brilliant. Some modern exploration into other sounds, but all throughout is that unmistakable AC/DC sound. Hard rock and blues. And boy, does it sound incredible.'Realize' and 'Shot in the Dark' are sensible choices of singles, with each promosing lascivious lyrics and air-pumping choruses. The riffs are great, and liberal in POWER UP. 'Rejection' is a song Bon Scott would have been jealous of, but oh-so-infectious. 'Through the Mists of Time' is just awesome. A bit on the softer side, a bit melancholy. A bit haunting. It's clearly for Malc, and it rocks with the best of them. I still get goosebumps listening to it with every spin.'Kick You When You're Down' is pure '90s AC/DC, with an aptly-kicking riff that proves one POWER UP's highlights. 'Witch's Spell' is basically 'Big Jack' and Ballbreaker's 'Burnin' Alive' combined, and it sounds excellent. 'Demon Fire' has similar shades of The Razor's Edge and what was to come. There are a couple of weaker tracks, personally, in 'Systems Down' and 'Code Red', but they're by no means weak. 'Money Shot' is a dose of pure AC/DC, and 'No Man's Land' is a worthy rocker.Overall, scarcely a bad track on this hearty offering of hard rock. It's what 2020 needs. The boys are back and bigger than ever.The physical vinyl copy is also beautiful. A luxurious gatefold, it holds a glossy inner sleeve and - in this exclusive Amazon edition - devillish red vinyl. It sounds so rich and uncompromising: relentless rock 'n roll. Highly recommend.

Good 'ol AC DC ! With a lights and sound CD box !
Classic AC DC ! This album I feel is more of their original sound than the previous two. Anyway that's what I think . The lights and the music on the deluxe edition is great to see and hear. But the box quality isn't great . The paper box is glossy and flimsy. The moving parts of the paper box get damaged easily. If you compare this box( just the box) to the Pink Floyd Pulse limited edition CD box , the Floyd box had much better quality . It never got damaged easily with use . I still have mine . So music is great . Deluxe edition is only for the hard core fans.

Rock n Roll at it's best
I was going to leae this 4 starts, because I was not ovelry impresssed wit the box, it was fllimsy and the premium price didnt warrant it, however I've listened to the album now, maybe 5-6 times and it's awesome. Brian still has his rasp and screech and the riffs are sensational.What a great comeback album, dedicate to the late Mal, it's just awesome. Through the Mists of Time, what a superb RnR song - superb!!! Great album, welcome back boys.

Angus is back
Well, what a tribute for Malcolm! Every song is pure AC/DC of old, somewhere between Razor's Edge and Black Ice. Realize, the opener, sets the tone, sets the pace, and for the next 50 min, you get AC/DC, just pure AC/DC. Brian is back in full swing, Phil and Cliff keep up the tempo, Stevie has clearly grown up listening to the family and Angus has not aged one bit. I can't wait to see them on the road again...

Great album let down by Amazon not providing auto rip as they do for the black vinyl version
Really love the album and a red vinyl version exclusive to Amazon was fantastic as I thought the Official AC/DC site missed a trick only offering a yellow vinyl version. However, what would have made it even better would have been an auto rip of the mp3s which Amazon give you if you by the black vinyl version! Same album, same songs but if you buy the Amazon exclusive they don't give you the mp3s.

Portada danada.
Me llego la portada danada, al parecer un golpe de manejo antes del empaque de envio. La caja de empaque llego sin la proteccion de burbuja como normalmente llega de Amazon. Cabe mencionar que es la primera vez que me llega asi un producto de Amazon. La verdad me dio flojera devolverlo ya que el disco se ve muy bien, pero para la proxima si lo voy a devolver el producto.
