 Rating:  - Great Hard Rock - Like KIX more than AC/DCThis is a great Hard Rock CD. Built for driving fast, drinking hard and generally jumping around. Its been in my car all summer long! Other reviews have mentioned that they sound like AC/DC; I would argue that they really are closer to the sound of KIX. Check KIX's debut cd and you'll see that Airbourne owes more to them than AC/DC. Faster, less bluesy. Another review mentioned Rhino Bucket as sounding similar too; which I wanted to point out that that band has a former KIX guitarist. Rating:  - Damn good music...and catchy as hellAirbourne Rocks! Yes, they do sound like AC/DC, but are they trying to copy AC/DC...no. The reviewer that gave them a 1 better hide before I find him and give him an embarassing slap to the face in front of his mom. The songs are simple and fun, they're loud, and they're catchy as hell. I also thought it was refreshing that all the songs are distinctly different and all of them have great choruses...you can't help but scream along. Buy it! Rating: - back in black?i swear this might as well be AC/DC.....this is pure in ur face rock! luv it! i gotta see these guys in concert now :) Rating: - A GOOD AC/DC SOUND ALIKE, BUT CERTAINLY NOT THE BESTThis album is pretty good, no doubt. However, if you like Airbourne you should be thrilled with Rhino Bucket. Rhino Bucket has been around since 1990 and are without question the next best thing in lieu of AC/DC. In fact, in the early 90's Simon Wright, one of AC/DC's former drummers, joined Rhino Bucket for a short while. So, as I said, if you like AC/DC, Rhino Bucket is the next best thing. If you like Ozzy era Black Sabbath, Sheavy is the next best thing. If you like Dio, Astral Doors is the next best ...

The vocalist (besides going for the total early Brian Johnson thing) comes off sounding like a yelling Sam Kinison at times, and at others more like Sebastian Bach of skid row. More recently the band Jet also redid this ac/dc sound, though not as metallish. Regardless, new bands copying old styles verbatim will not have a long shelf life and just be a novelty that will wear thin soon. Will you really be listening to this 2 years from now? I mean I'd pay $5 to ... Read More |
