More AC/DC More AC/DC

There has been huge debate both for and against Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose taking on frontman duties for iconic rockers AC/DC for a string of European dates kicking off this week and on the back of a quick taste at Coachella, we may have just gotten a sneak peek as to what the new line-up will sound like, after fans recorded what is alleged to be the band rehearsing at a studio in Portugal this week.

Rose and AC/DC are currently in Lisbon where they will kick off the shows this Saturday and as cited by Blabbermouth, it appears that some very eager local fans managed to track down their rehearsal space and record some audio of the warm-ups.

While it cannot be undeniably confirmed that it is indeed Rose and AC/DC heard performing Thunderstruck and Shoot To Thrill inside the studio, the vocals in the recordings do sound incredibly similar to the Gunners vocalist.

Following the Lisbon show, AC/DC and Rose will move on to perform throughout Europe up until mid-June, where Rose will head back to GNR to gear up for a US stadium reunion tour, before he again fronts AC/DC for some rescheduled US shows. 

Rose was announced as the replacement for Brian Johnson after the group's long-time singer was forced to withdraw from touring or face permanent hearing loss.
