Album Reviews
Produced by the band, Flick of the Switch isn't quite the monster blowout that 1980's Back in Black was, and the Young's retooling of old riffs for new hits also teeters on self-plagiarism at times. But how can you argue with a Molotovcocktail hour that incudes such crass fun as "This House Is on Fire" and the whiplash rocker "Brain Shake"? Sure, if you've heard one AC/DC album, you've heard them all. Flick of the Switch makes for one hell of a crash course, though.
