AC/DC Album Battle

[James Bond]

Both of AC/DC's underrated albums. I think they are both great, but I listen to Flick of the Switch more often.

Flick of the Switch. B)

[Lumiere]

Both albums are tremendous, and tremendously underrated. I find myself listening to Fly On The Wall more, but Flick Of The Switch is more consistent.

[Cerpin Taxt]

These albums are almost like the Use Your Illusions in that they both have similar characteristics.

I enjoy Flick Of The Switch more

[Duffan]

FOTS fuckin' cranks much better than many seem to know tracks 3-6 are as killer as anything in the AC/DC catalouge and it's one of thier most consistent albums . Fly is cool too , My fav is Playing with Girls , very "tough" thuggish sound .

Flick of the switch is underated

[Binge_And_Slash]

Better help Fly on the Wall here...

Now I may get flamed to high hell for this, but I just can't stand Flick of the Switch

[Wild_Child]

i prefer fly on the wall personally

Then I suggest you go listen to Flick Of The Switch or Nervous Shakedown again my friend -- because they're two of my all time AC/DC favourites.

However - Fly On The Wall has it's share of classic tracks too - Where would we be without Shake Your Foundations, The title track -- Or my personal favourite - Sink the Pink. Fuck I love the name of that one!

Eh - I love them both, despite the shoddy production -- But my vote goes out to Flick of The Switch.

I love them both, despite the shoddy production.

Have you heard the remastered Digipak versions yet? The sound is greatly improved (but Fly On The Wall still has that cheesy 80s sound to it).

flick of the switch

fly on the wall is an awfully produced record

brian johnsons voice is buried too deep behind the guitars

[Lumiere]

Brian johnsons voice is buried too deep behind the guitars

And with good reason. His vocals had deteriorated beyond belief at that point.

This is fixed on the Fly On The Wall remaster.

(but Fly On The Wall still has that cheesy 80s sound to it).

That's the only thing I dislike about that album.

[Duffan]

I'm not sure what you guys mean by "cheesy quality" , I don't think it sounds like those other 80's "metal" albums , maybe it's just those videos that come to mind . . First Blood and Playin' with Girls sounds tough as hell .
