Great band .singer would have being great replacement for Bon Scott but he had far more range in his voice than Bon.Seen them live a few times and they were always a hard rocking band.Singer is it Marc Storace? played drums too and would do a solo with the drummer very talented.Gotta agree Headhunter is a class album.

Not a AC/DC ripoff. They're more heavy metal, but the singer sounds a bit like Bon Scott.
