Rock 'n Roll Train has been storming radios across the world till it's release. People can't seem to have enough! Blabbermouth says: AC/DC's first new single in eight years, "Rock 'N Roll Train", is the first song to debut at No. 1 on the Rock (spins) chart in the BDS (Broadcast Data Systems) Canada era (beginning 1997) and the first AC/DC song in the BDS era to reach No. 1.


AC/DC has 6 albums in the Australian Top 50 this week, including one in the top 20 with collective sales that out sold the number one album this week.

AC/DC positions in this week's chart are:
20. TNT (1975)
26. The Razors Edge (1990)
27. Highway To Hell (1979)
28. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976)
30. Who Made Who (1986)
45. Stiff Upper Lip (2000)

Brendan O'Brien says that the new album will get the same treatment as any other AC/DC effort. AC/DC gets back to basics: I was hoping the songs would lend themselves to more of a — 'pop' is the wrong word, but hooky sort of treatment," O'Brien told Rolling Stone. "Like 'Back in Black' or 'Highway to Hell' and even 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.' I was trying to just make people remember, 'This is the same band. I have missed this band. I love this band. Where have they been?'

O'Brien said their demos had a very unique sound: If it's Angus' song, he's doing a guitar riff or the drum machine or a drum sort of thing, and he'll sing this very mumbly melody, very superlow, three octaves down, he explained.

And by the way, Angus won't give up his school-boy outfit: At first, when I think about 'Hey, I haven't worn it in a while,' it takes me a little bit of psychology to get into it," he told Rolling Stone. "But I promised myself I'm not gonna think — I'll just put it on.
