"Angus Young shreds throughout (we dig his slide work on “Decibel”), "
That's a new trick for the old dog, isn't it? Has Angus ever played slide guitar on an album before?

I am racking my brain and I believe you are right Angus has never played slide on an album before.

By "slide work" do they really mean a slide, though?

As opposed to what? When I read "slide work" I think of a glass or metal tube on the finger run up and down the frets of the guitar. What are you talking about?

Sliding riffs or solos, no slide tube (like Bon Jovi's "I'll Be There For You" intro, that sort of thing). I would think Eddie Trunk would know the difference, though, so maybe Angus did pull something new out of the old bag of tricks.

I wouldn't suprised if he did pull out the slide on us considering the amount of blues influence he has but it is kinda strange that he's done something new with his guitar playing after all these years
Maybe everyone saying that he only plays three cords finally got to him

According to News.com.au, die-hard AC/DC fans have sunk to a hilarious new low in rock and roll fandom.
Fans who attended a film clip shoot in London last week were among the first in the world to hear AC/DC's new single "Rock 'N Roll Train", and, instead of leaking an unauthorized recording, have set about recreating it themselves on YouTube.
One video shows a fan dressed as Brian Johnson singing "Rock N Roll Train" in his bedroom. Another clip features a fan "singing" the song's main guitar riff in a series of "nah, nah, nah" noises.
Yet another clip shows a fan playing the song on guitar, after having the riff described to him by a friend who was at the film shoot.
Watch the clip in question below.

I thought it was hilarious. Haha.
Apparently it's an interpretation of the real song. I guess some kids got to hear the song and then tried to remember it later. This is what they came up with. Sounds like it could be a cool tune, even if that guy sucks! Haha.

Yeah, I like the red one best. Glad they're not putting an exclusive song on each, though!

Yea, I hope they don't do that. I wonder if all 3 variations will be easily available or will they, for example, make the red one the primary release and do the other 2 in limited runs to make them more sought-after by collectors?

Well, I didn't buy my first AC/DC album until last year. So that's why this'll be my first new AC/DC release experience.
And I like Stiff Upper Lip. "Damned" is such a killer tune!

Anyway, I personally like the yellow cover the best, it feels more retro to me.
