 Great album, disappointing remaster version package October 16, 2008

Ballbreaker is a 5-star album to me, and one of my favorite AC/DC albums. However, I was a little disappointed with the packaging of the remastered version. One of the reasons I bought this album was because I always thought the booklet with Ballbreaker was really awesome, with the comic book illustrations alongside the lyrics. In this version, though, you get a book with a decent, but unnecessary review praising the album, some cool photos, and the original illustrations in there as kind of an afterthought. No lyrics. It just doesn't have the same "feel" as the original release booklet.
That's probably a weird gripe, and it might not bother most people, but I thought I'd point it out. Otherwise, this is a great album, unlike any other they've released, with a crisp guitar sound and great production, and Brian Johnson's best album vocally in my opinion. Make sure you check it out one way or another!

AC/DC's best since "The Razors Edge" February 4, 2008

AC/DC really impressed with with the 2005 release "Ballbreaker" Now, not to say that they havent released some good albums in the Brian Johnson era, but the only four(Johnson Era) that I have thought were Excellent were 1980's "Back in Back", 1981's"For those about to rock", "1983's "Flick of the Switch" and 1990's "The Razors Edge" The others. Medicore to Average. The band has an above average release with "Stiff Upper Lip" but still failed to grab me like the AC/DC of old. "Ballbreaker" shows that AC/DC can still rock, and whats even more impressive, is that they didnt change over to Nu Metal, or rapcore, or any other type of music that was "Popular" They keep it simple with their own sound, and give us a very good album. Its sleezy, its metal, its rock, its everything you want from a band that you have had such high-hopes from, just hoping they could build on 1990's "The Razors Edge" and this proves they did. Its not perfect, with a few tracks that I could pass on, but the eight songs that I love on this album, return back to AC/DC's form (of the Johnson era) Considering the price is dirt cheap, dont hesitate to pick this up. It night not be one of their best, but its so impressive to get a release this strong, considering the type of garbage "pop" music that is surrounding the airwaves of today, and that the band has been around for over Thirty Years. ENJOY
