AC/DC Play Ball, Your First Sample And Album Tracklisting

by Paul Cashmere on September 26, 2014

in New Music,News

AC/DC will release their new album ‘Rock Or Bust’ in November and a sample of the first song ‘Play Ball’ has premiered on an ad for the American League Baseball coverage.

News of the AC/DC album came as the band announced the permanent departure of founding member Malcolm Young due to illness. Malcolm founded AC/DC with his brother Angus in 1974. In April this year it was announced that he was taking a break from the band to deal with an unnamed illness. That illness has been now reported by numerous publications as Dementia. Young has now been placed in an aged care home in the Sydney suburb of Elizabeth Bay.

‘Rock of Bust’ will be the 16th AC/DC album in Australia and 15th worldwide.
