I just keep putting this disc back in the players. Didn't really know much about them until I heard they were touring with Megadeth, Motorhead, and Lacuna Coil. Had heard a couple of songs on the radio but that was about it. Believe me this is GREAT!!! Powerful, Agressive, Melodic, Heavy are just a few words to describe this disc. Best I have heard in years!!! Could go on and on. Just buy it. you won't be dissapointed. The DVD is a bonus on this package.
All I can say is maybe the best Megadeth ever. Great to have Ellefson back on bass. He was what was missing the last few cd's. At least that is what it sounds like to me! Can't wait to see them with Motorhead in the Twin Cities.
I was introduced to my first experience with Airbourne this week and I must say...I Like! Loud guitars, screeching vocals, heavy drums and bass...its all in here. Has a very "old school" analog sound to it due to the live recording process and reminds me of 80's metal when it was king (think Van Halen, Scorpions, Dio, AC/DC, etc). If I had to describe it, I would say take some AC/DC, mix it with some Jackyl and Thin Lizzy with little bits of Cinderella, Def Leppard(old) and Quiet Riot and you get Airbourne! Found myself moving my head a lot because it just ROCKS and gets better each play. I recommend waiting until the special edition is available for the 5 extra bonus tracks and live DVD of the Wacken '08 festival footage.
But if you can't wait...
Get it...you can't go wrong for $10 and thats a lot of rock for your $$$.

Great Late 70's, 80's Sound!
January 28, 2011
Hauve to say this is pretty good. Sounds like old AC/DC, Helix, and Fastway all in one. If you like good raw 80's sound this is for you! Have been waiting for more bands to start sounding like this again.
