By Dylan WelchMay 3, 2006 - 2:05PM

The director of music at AC/DC's record label, Albert's, has discussed the long-awaited new album from the Aussie rock band.

It has now been more than six years since the last album, Stiff Upper Lip.

Fifa Riccobono said the band had not decided upon a definite schedule for release, and still had not got into the recording studio.

"I'm hanging out for it big time," she told smh.com.au.

"There's no scheduling. They're ready to go and ready to record but there's no plan for it."
She said the band had written a lot of material and practised new songs, but still have not got to the recording studio.

"The minute they do I'll be very, very happy."

The new album, which has held frustrated fans in anxious suspense since the rumour caught on the ageing rockers were planning a new disc, is as yet untitled.

A 13-month-old Perth girl suffered serious burns when she was put in a clothes dryer, police say.

The baby was left with the boyfriend of her mother at suburban Warwick when the woman went to the gym for about an hour last Thursday, police said.
The baby spilt liquid on herself and the man put her in the clothes dryer and turned it on.
The girl suffered serious burns to her feet and hands and bruising to the face, arms and back.

"We received information from Princess Margaret Hospital's child protection unit, which said the injuries were suspicious and highly unusual," a police spokesman said.
A 21-year-old man from suburban Beldon is expected to appear in Perth Magistrates' Court, charged with causing bodily harm or danger.
