AC/DC are a hard rock band formed in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young and his brother, lead guitarist AngusYoung. The band has sold over 150 million albums worldwide, making them one of the most successful hard rock acts ever. Their 1980 albumBack in Black has sold 42 million units worldwide (21 million in the US alone) and is the second highest selling album of all time. The band hashad two distinctive lead singers, and its fans tend to divide its history into the "Bon Scott era" (1974-80), and the "Brian Johnson era" (1980-present).Although the group is generally considered to be a pioneer of hard rock and heavy metal music (they are ranked number 4 on VH1's "100Greatest Artists of Hard Rock"), the members have always referred to their music as rock 'n' roll. Overall, AC/DC is the most successful andwell-known band to hail from Australia.
The band released their most recent studio album, Black Ice, in 2008, 8 years after 2000's Stiff Upper Lip, creating the longest gap betweenAC/DC studio albums so far. Though reviews were generally favourable, there were also cries of strong opposition. Nevertheless, the bandcontinues to be as popular as ever. « hide |
