Online Music Magazine has just reviewed our CD - also please check out
their
website for our interview
Back
In Black,"Back
In Black" (Indie Release)
BACK IN BLACK
is an
AC/DC tribute band with balls! Why you ask? Well, to put six band
originals
alongside two AC/DC classics on a CD - you’ve gotta
be pretty damn sure of yourself. But BACK IN BLACK pulls it off,
creating an
audio illusion of a POWERAGE-era AC/DC fronted by Brian Johnson.
Although the
musical style of the band is reminiscent of the whole album catalogue
of AC/DC
(HIGH VOLTAGE, POWERAGE, HIGHWAY TO HELL, BACK IN BLACK, FOR THOSE
ABOUT TO
ROCK, etc) in both songwriting and performance, the vocals are closer
to Brian
Johnson than Bon Scott. And that's fine with me - although I prefer the
Bon
Scott-era band, the songs are still effective (plus, not many can pull
off
Brian Johnson-like vocals). If someone had given me disc and told me it
was
AC/DC outtakes or unreleased songs I would have believed it - these
guys are
that good!
Although
superfluous,
the inclusion of "Money Honey" and "Back in Black" show
that this band has the AC/DC sound down to an art.

Back Black doing their own thing -- finally
By Malcolm Mayhew
Star-Telegram Staff Writer
Not many cover bands put out original records, but not many cover bands
have
stirred up such a following and fuss as Back in Black, a Dallas-based
AC/DC
tribute band that pops up at nearly every event sponsored by 93.3 FM
"The
Bone."
Which is fine. That's the group's core audience. Said audience is what
inspired
the group to get in the studio and not just keep stealing from AC/DC.
"We've been doing this for three years, and during that time, we've met
all these great fans who say they want to hear new material from us,"
says
guitarist Mike Mroz, who plays the role of Angus Young. "They say,
'There's nothing good out there.' "
So the group banged out an eight-song, self-titled disc comprising six
originals and, of course, two AC/DC covers, Back in Black and Money
Honey.
They're throwing a release party for it Saturday at R.J.'s Roadhouse in
the
Stockyards.
The six originals are steeped in '70s-era AC/DC, Mroz says. "Mix that
sound with Jet, and that's what people are saying it sounds like.
That's a
niche in music that needs to be filled right now."

Yet another great show at RJ's Roadhouse. We wanna
personally thank Ronnie and his awesome wife for having us out there
for a rockin time.
Special thanks to Company V for startin
the night out right!!! Man! You gotta
hear these guys! Heard some of my favorite Iron Maiden, Rush, and
Journey tunes
in the next room and I thought they just had a CD player cranked up
real loud!
Totally amazing. Looking forward to playing with them again. Didn't get
to meet
Ted Nugent liked I'd hoped but thats
all good, I'm
sure he had plenty of things to do. Glad shooting me with a bow and
arrow
wasn't one of them! Anyway, it'll be a while before we see you again
rockers.
Next time is Feb. 12th back at Firewater. Hope to see you all then!
1.21.2005
Our New CD has been officially launched! The release party
was
incredible, we packed the Firewater! Special thanks to Billy
Hayes , The
BIG Bone Morning Crew and Scott Strong for having us on and playing
three of
our new original songs. We would also like to thank
Russ Martin for
playing our CD last week, we’re very excited to participate in his new
movie
project. We even heard that The Hardline
also played Drop the Bomb, thanks guys. The CD will
be available
for sale at all of our shows and can now be ordered
online. Please go to
our merchandise
page for
more details. We should have some great new photos courtesy
of Andrew Dieb at
Crystal Clear Media posted soon. We’ll see
you on Jan 29th at RJ’s Roadhouse for the Ted
Nugent After Party.
1.14.2005
Be sure to checkout our
new mp3’s in our Media section!!!
Back in Black and Money Honey sound totally kick
ass. We’ve also posted a couple of our new original songs from our
upcoming
CD. We’re still on for the CD release party/show next Friday
the 21st
and then at RJ’s Roadhouse on the 29th for the
after party show for
the Ted Nugent concert at Billy Bob’s. These will be killer shows, so
see you
there!
1.3.2005
Happy New Year! Well, we all made it yet another year. Hope everyone
had a good
time over the holidays. Now its down to business! We got two great
shows this
month: the official Back in Black CD release party at Firewater on the
21st
and then we’re playing at RJ’s Roadhouse on the 29th
RIGHT AFTER Ted
Nugent gets off stage across the street at Billy Bob’s! My senses and
sources
tell me that Nugent’s an AC/DC fan, so there’s a good chance he may
show up!
Who knows!
12.12.2004
Firewater was a good show! That's the very first time the canon on For
Those
About to Rock was as loud and bassy
as it needs to
be! About time someone got it right! Very special thanks to the Crystal
Clear
Media and BodyBoom
video crews. You guys were
awesome. Anyways, no shows for a while I think, not for the rest of
this month
anyway. Be sure to check out Back in Black's original side project band
and
their new single Drop The Bomb. Click here to download

Firewater was interesting. We had a good time hanging out with all of

everyone for
coming out! See you back there in November and December! Next up:
