Columbia Records Press Release AC/DC Anticipated Album ‘Rock or Bust’ To Be Released December 2 New York, New York (October 6, 2014) –The world’s favorite and oldest performing rock band, AC/DC is “back in black” to release their first album in six years. Unlike recent rock veterans, AC/DC is not re-mastering and re-issuing old tunes. The band is back to create an album full of eleven new noteworthy tracks. The anticipated studio album, ‘Rock or Bust’ will be released on December 2, 2014. Old and new rock-n-roll fans will find themselves shocked at the creative guitar riffs and unique rock vocals. AC/DC has been proving themselves worthy since their first album release in 1975. The band has sold nearly 200 million albums worldwide within the span of their career. ‘Rock or Bust’ will follow the record-breaking sales of their last album ‘Black Ice’ released in 2008. ‘Black Ice’ stayed #1 on rock charts in 31 countries and has sold an average of 8 million copies worldwide. Unlike past albums, ‘Rock or Bust’ will be the first album in the band’s 41-year history without rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist, Malcolm Young. Despite Young’s personal health problems, AC/DC replaced him on the record with Angus and Malcolm Young’s nephew, Stevie Young. Stevie Young will also embark as lead rhythm guitarist on AC/DC’s 40 show tour supporting ‘Rock or Bust’ in 2015. Lead vocalist Brian Johnson shared, “It’s been 40 years of the band’s existence, so I think we’re gonna try to do 40 gigs, 40 shows, to thank the fans for their undying loyalty”. Fans can currently preorder ‘Rock or Bust’ on iTunes and purchase performance tickets through Ticketmaster. ### Columbia Records is dedicated to moving music forward and providing music lovers with innovative tracks. Columbia Records began producing music in 1888 and is now home to 90 unique artists. Makailynn Clark Public Relations Specialist Columbia Records Organizational Feature A Century of Music Music has been touching listener’s hearts and providing them with an emotional experience since the beginning of time. Music is the universal language that allows every nation to moved by a melody and a beat. While music has been performed live for centuries, it wasn’t until 1887 when Thomas Alva Edison attempted to transcribe sounds on a cylinder wrapped in tinfoil. Edison created the first recorded music and his patent for the phonograph was created in 1878. Edward Denison decided to use Edison’s technology and create the Columbia Phonograph Company. A company that would pave modern music for the next century. The founders of Columbia Records wasted no time in recording music once the company was established. By 1891 Columbia already had an impressive 10-page catalogue of records to purchase. The catalogue was comprised of famous opera stars and American ballads largely due to the fact the recording technology could only handle small groups. However in 1920 Columbia released a new electrical recording system that consisted of microphones that could handle an entire symphony orchestra. With Columbia’s new recording technology, renowned artist such as Benny Goodman and Louis Armstrong were able to change the pace of recorded music with their large swing orchestras. But recording swing music didn’t last long because Columbia Records pursues evolving music. Within the next decade the swing tracks were soon replaced by new jazz melodies. Artists like Billy Holiday and Frank Sinatra became solo artists signed by Columbia and took the music industry by storm. Sinatra gained a notable fan following that brought vast revenue. In 1948 Columbia Records decided to test new technology and Sinatra’s incredible sales with the release of the first LP. Although Columbia was pushing solo artists at the time, they did not fail to recognize Broadway’s golden era. To satisfy the needs of Broadway fans across the country unable to attend New York shows, Columbia started to record Original Cast Recordings of the musicals. By 1950 Columbia had an impressive collection of swing, jazz, and musical recordings. Yet such a collection was not enough for the company. Columbia yearned to continually invest in the future of music. In order to do this Columbia had to sign new emerging rock and folk artist such as Johnny Cash, Janis Joplin, and Bob Dylan. By 1970 the sexual revolution hit Columbia Records and they were determined to evolve with music. The company noticed the impact sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll was having on the country. Therefore they began to sign artist that catered to teenager’s rebellious attitudes. Young unruly teenagers desired chaotic rock music and Columbia Records brought forth artist such as Santana, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, and The Clash. However, Columbia could see that the hippy rock revolution was about to die out and vibrant pop music was about to be birthed. Artists such as Wham, Celion Dion, and LL Cool J were the new artists of the vivacious decade that continued to live up to Columbia’s mission of pushing music boundaries. During the 1980s every competing music corporation could see Columbia Records was never going to fail due to their continuously emerging music. One competitor Sony Music Entertainment noticed Columbia Records’ strengths and decided to make an offer in 1987 to merge companies. Fast forward over 25 years and Columbia Records remains a subsidiary label of Sony Music Entertainment and currently has 90 artist signed to their label. Unlike past decades in which Columbia Records focused on one popular genre at a time, Columbia Records is now home to 90 diverse artists, all who are still being told to push music boundaries. It is very easy to recreate the music of the past and construct tracks that similar artists in a genre are producing. However as seen through history, Columbia Records has been evolving their music and touching listener’s hearts for 125 years. While there are many music competitors, Columbia Records remains unique with music that is always moving forward.

    Sean McCulloch – Lead Vocals Daniel Gailey – Guitar, Backing Vocals Bryce Kelly – Bass, Backing Vocals Lee Humarian – Drums Utter and complete reinvention isn’t the only way to destroy boundaries. Oftentimes, the most invigorating renewal in any particular community comes not from a generation’s desperate search for some sort of unrealized frontier, but from a reverence for the strength of its foundation. The steadfast metal fury of PHINEHAS is focused, deliberate, and unashamed. Across three albums and two EPs, the Southern California quartet has proven to be both herald of the genre’s future and keeper of its glorious past. The New Wave Of American Metal defined by the likes of As I Lay Dying, Shadows Fall, Unearth, All That Remains, Bleeding Through, and likeminded bands on the Ozzfest stage and on the covers of heavy metal publications has found a new heir in PHINEHAS. Even as the NWOAM owed a sizeable debt to Europe’s At The Gates and In Flames and North America’s Integrity and Coalesce, PHINEHAS grab the torch from the generation just before them. The four men of mayhem find themselves increasingly celebrated by fans, critics, and contemporaries, due to their pulse-pounding brutality. Make no mistake: PHINEHAS is not a simple throwback. PHINEHAS is a distillation of everything that has made the genre great since bands first discovered the brilliant results of combining heavy metal’s technical skill with hardcore punk’s impassioned fury. SEAN MCCULLOCH has poured his heart out through his throat with decisive power, honest reflections on faith and doubt, and down-to-earth charm since 2007.

Received wisdom has it that straights, having played no part in this embryonic moment, co-opted the culture after they cottoned onto its chic status and potential profitability.

  • Tax and AC/DC

    Tax and AC/DC

    Tax and AC/DC Kim G C Moody FCPA, FCA, TEP September 21, 2015 Those of you who know me well will know that my first career choice was to be a music teacher. I studied and played music classically well into my teens. When I realized that my talents would likely not provide me a stable living, I switched gears and became a Chartered Accountant. I still love music – all types of music with a few exceptions – but I have a soft spot for classic rock which is often playing in my office. One of my all time favorite bands is AC/DC. Their straight-ahead blues rock with very simple (almost comical) lyrics is exactly what I like to listen to when I need to turn my brain off (which doesn’t happen very often). Accordingly, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to attend AC/DC’s concert in Edmonton on September 20, 2015. It was a cold and wet night, but that didn’t dampen the spirit of the crowd. Classic rock concerts and tax go together like wine and cheese. The last time that AC/DC was on tour in Canada was 2009 and I attended their concert in Vancouver. I wrote a blog about tax and AC/DC back then and I’m continuing that tradition here. So what was I thinking about while listening? Well, here was their set list and each song inspired a different thought about tax: 1. Rock or Bust – This is AC/DC’s lead single from their latest album.

    2014-09-24 16:45 CEST AC/DC´s hett efterlängtade nya studioalbum ”Rock Or Bust” släpps i Sverige den 28 november Columbia Records proudly announces the release of ‘Rock or Bust,’ the highly anticipated new studio album from AC/DC, available December 2, 2014. (I Sverige släpps albumet den 28 november). ‘Rock or Bust’ is the band’s first studio album in six years and features 11 new tracks. ‘Rock or Bust’ follows the immensely successful ‘Black Ice’ album, which debuted at #1 in 31 countries upon its release in 2008 and has gone on to sell nearly 8 million copies worldwide. ‘Rock or Bust’ was recorded in Spring 2014 at Warehouse Studio in Vancouver, BC and finds AC/DC once again working with producer Brendan O’Brien and mixer Mike Fraser. Starting September 27, Turner Sports will provide fans a sneak peek of the new track ‘Play Ball’ as part of the 2014 Major League Baseball Postseason campaign. The content will run for several weeks across TBS, the exclusive home to this year’s American League Postseason coverage, as well as leading media brands within the Turner portfolio. ‘Rock or Bust’ is the first AC/DC album in the band’s 41 year history without founding member Malcolm Young on the recordings. Earlier this year AC/DC released a statement explaining that due to illness, Malcolm would be taking a break from the band. Unfortunately, due to the nature of Malcolm’s condition, he will not be returning to the band. AC/DC will undertake a world tour in support of ‘Rock or Bust’ in 2015.

Described as “epic and energising”, ‘Titanium’ was musically likened to the works of Coldplay and Sia’s vocal was compared to that of Fergie. Many reviewers raved about Sia’s delivery of the song’s hook, stating that ‘Titanium’ was by far the “most intriguing hook-up” of Guetta’s "$h studio album. #e single was certi"ed 3 x Platinum in the UK with sales just short of two million copies, and 2 x Platinum in the US with four million records sold. Guetta’s album Nothing But !e Beat topped the album charts in the DJ’s home nation of France, as well as Australia, Belgium, Germany, Spain and Switzerland.
