Yea, I've heard of others being banned for similar. He was quite abusive in my case so I think people deserve to know what type of person he is.
But, you're probably right that it serves little purpose in the long run to give these people much attention.

He called me a few names. Shame really cos I got on quite well with him when we had a beer at the 100 club show. I guess he has been tainted by the GNDM's of this world.

One of the reasons I hardly post on here anymore, too many negative/bitter people with a sense of entitlement who feel like Alice should do exactly what they want and ridicule/insult you if your opinion is different to theirs. It's refreshing to see there are still a few out there like you guys who seem to be fans of the music and can still have a respectful and positive discussion. As always I'll keep my opinion of the Album to after I've actually heard it but loving what I've heard so far.

I don't think anyone here has been disrespectful apart from RS. If favourable opinions are all you are looking for where on earth would you find that? The opinions made here have been based on the people hearing the songs. I dont think the reaction has been particularly negative. Most seem to like I Got A Line and Dead Drunk. School's Out is probably the least favourite out of the three due mainly to the shrill geordie vocalist.

Also commenting on people who are unable to respond here is also a little unfair.
PLEASE stick to topic.

I listened to the 3 tracks available on Spotify and enjoyed all three.
Dead Drunk Friends is a GREAT song and one that grows on you. It could end up being an AC classic song.
I Got A Line on you is also great. The cover from the 1980's sounded like a cookie-cutter remake that was put together by a producer and Alice simply showed up and sang on the track. This one has energy, passion and a great feel to it.
Schools Out--well....it sounded like they were having a good time making it but overall it's really pointless. I like Brian Johnson and AC/DC (although I prefer Bon Scott) but it all falls flat--at least to me. In all honesty I think they could have worked "Daydream Believer" into "School's Out". I'd have liked that much better.
At any rate--I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of the album.

Besides the PledgeMusicCare page where you can preorder the cd and vinyl, will the vinyl be available through Amazon etc?

So the Japanese version has one bonustrack. The vinyl has no bonustrack.
Will there be a super-de-luxe editon?? My guess is not but I hope they prove me wrong. I expected more from the pledgemusic project. Some behind the scenes is that all??

Was just listening to "I Got A Line On You" and noticed the opening sounds similar to Cheap Trick's "Surrender."
