Black Ice prematurely escaped

by Volker Weber

According to Wikipedia AC/DC is releasing a new album ten days from now:

Black Ice is the upcoming fifteenth studio album by Australian hard rock band AC/DC, set to be released on October 18, 2008 for Australia and October 20 for the rest of the world. It will be their first album in eight years, since the release of Stiff Upper Lip in 2000, the longest gap between AC/DC's studio albums to date.

According to the pirate bay, it escaped yesterday. Not that I would care for their music. :-)

Pre-ordered from Amazon UK (I still buy my music the old-fashioned way ...)

Wasn't that the album which shouldn't be available as a download at all at AC/DC's request?

Yes, and in Switzerland you can actually win a trip to New York to join the last rehearsal for the world tour associated with the album.

@Julian - Amazon is old fashioned now? :-D

I'll buy it for my boy but I'm glad there's a no-DRM version I can get easily. Repeat after me...

@Ben - well, compared to this newfangled "downloading" thing I keep hearing about it is ;-)
