AC/DC's brand-new album, Rock or Bust, hits retailers December 2. The band’s first studio album since 2008 features 11 tracks in all, including the advance track, "Play Ball,” which you can hear below.
Rock or Bust will be available on CD and vinyl. You may want to grab a copy of one or both: the album's cover features a 3-D image that gives the illusion of the AC/DC logo exploding when you move the cover in different directions. You can see the cover now on AC/DC's official website.
Sadly, Rock or Bust will be the first album in AC/DC's 41-year history not to feature founding guitarist Malcolm Young, who has retired from the band after being diagnosed with dementia. Stevie Young — Malcolm and Angus Young's nephew — stands in for his ailing uncle on the album, and will also do so on the road. A tour's expected sometime next year.
