quote:To me, Back in Black sounded heavier than the other post-Bon Scott era albums as well. The Razors Edge was definitely higher pitched than Back in Black. quote:They do sound similar, but different. Brian Johnson has a deeper voice, and has more "croak" in his voice. Also, as time has passed, he seems to have gained more "croak." Regardless, AC/DC has always had a unique singing voice. The only band I've heard come close to this voice is Nazareth, in the song "Hair of the Dog," who's chorus is expletive (look up the lyrics), and which almost always gets mistaken for an AC/DC song. quote:I wouldn't like it if they stopped ever. By the way, AC/DC is working on a new album that's supposed to come out some time this year. How's that for longevity in a band?

I like them both equally. They both do different things with their voice well. If you were to have Brian Johnson sing "High Voltage", it would sound wrong. Likewise, if Bon Scott were to sing "Mistress for Christmas", it would sound wrong. -------------------- "We can learn a lot from crayons.

quote:What? How often do they update Kingdom of Loathing?

Those combined causes them to be rude to anyone who isn't is good as them in-game.

Adding nothing to the discussion, my favorite bands, musicians, songs, genres, etc. are as follows: Favorite Genre: Classic Rock Favorite Band: AC/DC Favorite Song: "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC, the second probably being "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen, or "Hair of the Dog" by Nazareth. Various other Bands I like: Def Leppard Poison Van Halen Aerosmith Led Zeppelin Foreigner Journey Queen -------------------- "We can learn a lot from crayons.

quote:Correct. Generally, around here, nefariousness refers to unsupported cheating that is usually against the CoC to talk about.

If you get the Magic Wave Blade from the Editor, you can augment it. Jeff forgot to make the editor set the "Magical Item" attribute on them.

I'm not allowed to have p2p clients on my computer, due to the school's rules. I can't even have file sharing enabled on my PC. If I do, I get booted off the network.
