Ac/dc

[panasonic youth]

I think that they are a bit overrated but not that much. For throughout their career they've put out good music (not saying that they're horrible now) and although a lot is power chords its not completely and does show that they do have talent unlike some of the bands today :lol:. Also I think it was remarkable thatr after Bon Scott died, they were able to come out with Brian Johnson but personally I liked Bon Scott's vocals better. But they are a talented band...except on the lyrics department but thats not what their music is about. Its about having a good time, and the best AC/DC song is Whole lotta Rosie.

[vincethedrummer]

what does ac/dc stand for

[GurS]

Alternating Current/Direct Current.

also a term given to transexuals.

[JACKROXYOU]

no not again man

no descussion

ac/dc was discovered on a back of a vacuum as a way to show the electrical output

its not meant to be gay or anti christ or bisexual

just electicity

[rippa32]

Alternating Current/Direct Current.

also a term given to transexuals.

I thought I had cleared all that crap up.

[JACKROXYOU]

we did man its just people read the last three posts

[DrFeelgood462]

I don't know if its been said already but AC/DC own power chords in a way that NOBODY else can touch. Any guitarist wanting to use power chords must get Malcom's approval in writing before it can be done. It the LAW!!!

[RoCKinG STANTON]

Angus is Amazing live. he never stops moving and pulls some great solos out of his hat.
They put on a hell of a show and they are still rocking to this day. but alot of their songs are repetitive but still catchy.

Hear something new to talk about. Who do u think was better at singing and songwriting. bon scott or brian johnson?

[JACKROXYOU]

wow alot of new people in this thread

yea angus is electirc preformer, he has the most amazing moves live

and i like brian

[AB/CD]

AC/DC are the best band ever they have been goin for 31 years now releasing a new album soon (if any1 knows anythign bout it please tell me) and theres was some1 in a realy old post saying that back seat confidential sounds like beating around the bush and whole lotta rosie and dirty eyes sound the same well that becos back seat confidential is what beating around the bushwas meant to be but they changed the lyrics and a few other things and then recorded beating around the bush and its the same with whole lotta rosie and dirty eyes ive heard every song :p

[thunderzstruck]

Ok if anyone thinks ac/dc sucks go watch the movie Let There Be Rock!! Noone can play like Angus and do what he does onstage,

NOONE!

[AB/CD]

exactly he runs about so much he need an oxygen tank thingy during that showand its just an amazing video

[RNR]

Angus is so funny on stage. He runs around like a chicken with its head cut off. Pure showmanship :)

[AB/CD]

mostly does the duck walk on stage

[RNR]

And the spinny thing while still playing perfectly :D

[AB/CD]

goin through the audience on a gaurds shoulders actually when they came here during the highway to hell tour (here being belfast) he went through the audience on bon scotts shoulders

[ledpoisoning27]

heres a little triva to see if you really are a ac/dc fan, what does ac/dc stand for.

[JACKROXYOU]

you idiot we've settled this on about 8 pages of this thread

it is two charges found on the back of the Young families vacuum

[Addicted2MyGuitar]

AC/DC is a frickin' good kick *** band. Period. Angus's solos may be easy if you are sitting in a chair, but I don't know anyone who can even play the rhythm while jumping, running, writhing on the floor, etc. They have proved to be one of the most durable rock bands ever. As for repetetiveness, I would rather them than, say Aerosmith, who have good albums followed by crappy ones. They have a unique sound, a no nonsense, simple image, and a hard rocking stage show. For those who have rocked for 30 plus years, I salute you.......

[JACKROXYOU]

thanks for summing up the thread :thumb:

[rippa32]

mostly does the duck walk on stage

Can anyone tell me why its called the duck walk? It looks nothin like a duck.

[Bucky]

A duck doesn't bend at the knees really... it waddles. So that's what Angus does, but in a dancy sort of way. Chuck Berry (sp?) invented it, I know that.

[rippa32]

Chuck Berry didn't invent it, chuck berry is most of angus's inspiration but he didnt invent the duck walk. I heard that angus made it up after he tripped on the cable connecting his guitar to the amp and he kinda made it up on the spot. Not sure how accurate that is but thats wat ive heard.

[ibanez bass masta15]

Someone on the first page said ac/dc wern't talented.............wot about bon scott he is an amazing singer with a totally unique voice

[Ulysses]

Someone on the first page said ac/dc wern't talented.............wot about bon scott he is an amazing singer with a totally unique voice

Now this is a bloke who knows his rock n roll :thumb: . Bon Scott's voice especially live is so strong and electric, his stage presence so alive and charismatic, he will forever be a legend.

["5150"]

Ac/Dc are great and yes they may not be the best band in the world musically, they have a truly unique sound. Any rock fan can recognise an Ac/Dc song, even if they haven't heard it before, and that is partly what makes them great. As for the vocalists, well what can I say? Brilliant. Bon Scott's voice was outstanding and Brain Johnson's is pretty good too, perhaps not quite as a full as Bon's.

http://www.kolumbus.fi/nononsense/dave2.htm

Unfortunately, it's Dave Evans :upset:. But it's proving you wrong, so here you go. Go to the bottom of the page, on the last paragraph.

Edit: http://home.swipnet.se/Spralle/ACDC/tourrev3108.htm <-there's another one. Fourth paragraph down.

[rippa32]

Sorry bout that. I kinda geussed the site I heard that from wasn't real accurate. (It was always mentioning Peter Clark instead of Peter Clack) btw Peter clack is one of the original drummers and my friends uncle.

[rippa32]

Is it possible to get the let there be rock video on DVD?

[AB/CD]

dont think it is yet but im not bothered i have it on video just never watch it incase it gets ruined

[rippa32]

Yeah it gettin ruined is what im worried about. Thats why I want it on DVD.

[i like arab girls]

AC/DC is my favorite band because they play simple catchy music. I also like the fact they don't like metal or punk rock music but that's besides the point. I like the simple music and dirty lyrics i.e. Hard As A Rock and Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (my 2 favorites).

[AB/CD]

yeah they dont like metal yet 2001 stiff upper lip brought megadeth on tour with them they do like metal they just prefer rock over metal punk they hate my dad will even tell u cos back in 79 during highway to hell tour punks were spitting on the stage mainly on angus he ended up he stopped during the middle of the song took bons mic and told the punks if they didnt stop spitting on stage he would personally get down and beat the **** outta them

[Bucky]

^^^ I'm lost.

[JACKROXYOU]

cool i hhave heard of angus puttin a beatin on some body

[AB/CD]

for whoever wanted to no about let there be rock on DVD as far as i no u cant get it but if u have a DVD recorder hook your video recorder up to it and then copy onto it an stuff and then youll have it on DVD thats what im gonna do

[rippa32]

^^^ I'm lost.

On a video the quality will degrade over time whereas a DVD doesnt.

[rippa32]

cool i hhave heard of angus puttin a beatin on some body

I heard that AC/DC once supported Black Sabbath on a tour but were kicked off cause Malcolm beat the crap outta the bass player.

[JACKROXYOU]

i dont know about that ill find out

[loser4sale6901]

u guys can think what u want, i have 21 of the 25 ac/dc cds and im not board with them, yeah sure i preferr some over others. I like it because all the cds have a different style to them. Like powerage is a laid back rock n roll feel, and let there be rock is up in ur face sweet *** riffs and solos theres just no stopping them, and theres no stopping there new album, "strap it on" too!

[Bucky]

Umm, why did you tell me that?

[rippa32]

Umm, why did you tell me that?

You said that you were lost.

[AB/CD]

oh and AC/DC did get kicked off a tour with some band but not for beating the crap outta any1 for actually putting on a better show and the audience wanted to see AC/DC instead of the other band

[JACKROXYOU]

they want ac/dc more than sabbath

i can see that

long live SABBATH

[AB/CD]

sabbath r god but compared to AC/DC they suck my opinion

[JACKROXYOU]

yea i agree sabbath is god

[AB/CD]

actually was meant ot be good never reliesed i left out an o

[Joe]

i haven't been paying much attention to this thread, but i've heard around that there is supposed to be a tour next year. whats true and whats not?

[AB/CD]

well AC/DC normally do a world tour after every album release and the new album is being released this year i think so tour should be on but then like i dont htink much work is happening on thealbum at the min cos every1s been doing stuff with different bands like brian johnson was on tour with twisted sister cliff williams done a short tour with hayseed dixie

[JACKROXYOU]

nice i cant wait

[catchingdeath08]

i got the definitive acdc song book :)

[catchingdeath08]

800 pages, 85 songs

[angus_young1990]

AC/DC are undoubtably the best rock band ever :thumb: I know there songs are simple but they are effective i can play two of there songs (back in black and highway to hell) and playin them makes u appreciate how good the songs are anyone who dislikes AC/DC dont like good music :angry:

[angus_young1990]

hehe...look at the name.

I dedicated my screen name to malcolm because he is more dedicated/ talented than angus. Angus admits that Malcolm is a better guitar player. He writes most off the riffs and solos and Angus just plays them.

but it takes skill to be able to play something i write for a band but i cant play nearly as well as our lead guitarist

[angus_young1990]

i know that they are deffently touring in the UK this year sometime if anyone finds tickits for this please let me know i desperatly wankt tickits

[JACKROXYOU]

a U.S. leg of the tour perhaps?

[rippa32]

Im in australia so im definately able to see em.

[LeDfLoYd21]

Ive always liked ACDC, even the newer stuff. I do, however, like Bon Scott material better then the Brian Johnson stuff. Bon Scott sang in a great squeling voice, and while Brian can sing exceptionally well, I think that he forces his voice more then Bon Scott did

[JACKROXYOU]

eh so are we expecting more or less the same thing in the next album?

[BlitzkriegBop08]

acdc is way over rated...so is angus young

YOU DONT KNOW WTF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT YOU SNIVELING *** AC/DC ARE ONE OF THE GREATEST FOUNDERS OF ROCK N ROLL AND ANGUS YOUNG IS ONE OF THE BEST GUITARISTS THAT EVER LIVED. ID LIKE TO SEE YOU PLAY ANY SOLO ANGUS HAS EVER PLAYED... SO JUST SHUT THE HELL UP SINCE YOU OBVIOUSLY DONT KNOW WTF YOUR SAYING. HAVE A NICE DAY :wave:

[JACKROXYOU]

Both of them are equally crappy singers...but both are EXCELLENT frontmen. They're true showmen with distinctive styles.

AC/DC is one of the most unique bands of all time. I prefer their brand heavy metal to this crap we have today. It's all three chord marches, which is absolutely fine by me...because Angus Young's solos more than fill in any gaps the simplistic riffs leave. It's great having bands like them around that realize that you don't need to cut down to the bare minimum (punk) but you also don't need to go over the top (hair metal). They provide a nice medium.

[SRSharp2006]

Well said. But I don't agree with youre opinion on their voice.

Well...the whole shrill voiced screaming thing can be impressive, but it just doesn't appeal to me.

Unsurprisingly, I don't like the guy from Iron Maiden very much. And I absolutely HATE Axl Rose.

[downpaymentblues]

You don't like Bruce Dickinson(Iron Maiden), you don't like Axl Rose and you don't like Bon Scott or Brian Johnson!!!??

Who the **** do you like then...Britney Spears?

[AB/CD]

Bon Scott was an amazing singer plus was constantly pissed from what i no cos at msot shows he used to steel peoples cider Brian ijust loves getting on stage he even sang even tho he had ahernia or somethign he ended up collapsing and kept trying to grab the mic when he was on his stretcher dedicated or what

I was lost because it was one long sentence. But anyways...

[AB/CD]

nah not texas im from Belfast N Ireland

[loser4sale6901]

To all those Thunderstruck-Blabbing-Idiots (no offense): in the studio version of Thunderstruck, he picks every single note of the intro. In his early days, he used one hand live. And now in his present days, he picks every note once again. Watch Stiff Upper Lip Live and this will prove it. Also, I read an article with Angus saying he picks every note in the Thunderstruck studio version.

not just SUL, Live form donington too! first song he picks every note

[JACKROXYOU]

Reall sorry that this is off-topic, but, AB/CD, where do you live, Texas?


i'm from texas will ac/dc be coming?

[AB/CD]

he never played thunderstruck with 1 hand donington was released around the same time as the razors edge he picked every note on that also on no bull he picked every note in it

[rippa32]

Yes but it is possible to play it one handed. Ive seen it done.

[ArcLite]

Of course its possible. I play it both ways, just whatever one I feel like. Both sound correct but a little different. Just by the sound you can tell he picks it on the album. Anyone here a fan of Powerage? It's my most recent AC/DC purchase and its awesome.

[rippa32]

I dont actually have Powerage but it will be the next album I buy.

[rippa32]

Could you give me a link to a tab for thunderstruck?

[ArcLite]

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/a/ac_dc/thunderstruck_tab.htm

It has the intro with hammer ons and pull offs but you can pick it if you want.

[rippa32]

Isnt that the easy way? I thought there was a harder and therefore better way of playin it.

[AB/CD]

TNT is way better than powerage

[acdc109]

The only reason they got repetitive is because Bon Scott died. When brain Johnson took over they still rocked yes but they were not as good as they were when Bon Scott was singing.

[AB/CD]

that makes no sense becos they get a new singer they get repetitive? they arent repetitivs every album is different unless u have listened to eery album several times u dont notice this

[LocoDiablo]

that makes no sense becos they get a new singer they get repetitive? they arent repetitivs every album is different unless u have listened to eery album several times u dont notice this


123 their not repetitive even though their best lead singer died. i do think though they lost a little edge when they got brian johnson.....hes not a bad singer but he is defintly not the greatest. ac/dc will always rock.

[AB/CD]

brian isnt as good a singer as bon yes i agree but brian helped the band through their career most people seem to prefer brian to bon all becos of what i consider the worst album they made being back in black some albums do sound the same tho if u listen to highay to hell then back in black few similarities there i think

[LocoDiablo]

back in black= way too over rated

[Silenius]

Look at my username, it may seem like I don't like AC/DC but I do.

[AB/CD]

yes back in black is too overrated becos it was a tribute to bon the album is complete and utter crap the only good song off it is rock n rol aint noise polution and ven that isnt their best work

[rippa32]

True but it is still a good album. You have to give it that. And if anyone asked me what their first AC/DC album should be I would tell them either Highway to Hell or Back in Black depending on their favourite singer.

[Silenius]

yes back in black is too overrated becos it was a tribute to bon the album is complete and utter crap the only good song off it is rock n rol aint noise polution and ven that isnt their best work
You Shook Me All Night Long pwns Rock n Roll Ain't Noise Pollution. :p

[rippa32]

I am getting sick of Shook me all night long.

[AB/CD]

you shook me al ngiht long has the arse riped out of it completely its arse doesnt even exist anymore.

and i wouldnt recomend highway to hell to any1 after a bon scott album id recomend if you want blood prob the best live album ever and then for anybody wanting a brian album id recomend flic of the switch good album and no1 takes any notice of it nnd always say its **** cos of production

p.s sorry for my very bad typing keys get stuck alot and i miss alot of them

[rippa32]

No I meant just as a first album. My favourite with Bon is Let there be Rock.

[HendrixPage]

People who say AC/DC sucks balls probally do suck balls. Angus is a good guitar player and so is Malcom. I mean without them how would we know thunderstruck or back in black.

[MAthiAS]

yea I agree... not great but they're fine to listen to on occasion.

[LocoDiablo]

in my opinion bon scott's highlight or most talked about album is highway to hell............brian johnsons highlight album is ofcourse back in black. Bon scott ended with a bang.....as for brian johnson he started good but i doubt he will do any better, thats why angus young is basically the image of ac/dc.

[rippa32]

Brian did Razors Edge that was pretty good.

[Ulysses]

People who say AC/DC sucks balls probally do suck balls. Angus is a good guitar player and so is Malcom. I mean without them how would we know thunderstruck or back in black.

Together Malcolm and Angus created good solid rock n roll riffs, famous simple riffs played at eardrum blowing volume. They are simple but great and stick in your head allowing you to really get into the music. Great anthems such as Whole Lotta Rosie, Thunderstruck, Riff Raff, Jailbreak, Let There Be Rock and the list goes on have been created by these two brothers, it really is great stuff, without AC/DC I don't know where I'd find the raw rock n roll i get my kicks from.

[AB/CD]

every song u just listed is crap apart from riff raff and jailbreak

[Paranoidd]

I like AC/DC but unfortunately their style becomes redundant very quickly, and there aren't many of their albums that don't have a fair share of filler tracks.

Good band for simple, balls-out rock, though.

[rippa32]

every song u just listed is crap apart from riff raff and jailbreak

Whats wrong with Let There Be Rock?

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

angus young is one the most underated guitarist i mean he was way better than jimy hendrix in my book and he gets **** acdc is one the most creative and most succesful bands there is they have made alot of good songs and theyre songs do not sound the same i have to admit maybe some might have a similar rift but they are all unique and when they added brian jhonson to the mix after bon scotts death it was a perfect combination ACDC IS AN AWSOME BAND if they sucked they wouldent be in the rock n roll hall of fame they deserve it ,ACDC RULES

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

IT TAKES GREAT SKILL TO BUST OUT SOMTHING LIKE THUNDERSTRUCK THE FINGER WORK IS PERFECT TOTAL SKILL and brian delivers with the awsome raspy volcals if u dont like ACDC please die

[Lethereberock]

AC/DC is my favorite band, and my favorite album being LET THERE BE ROCK!

People say Angus has little talent, but those people have never seen Angus play live...his 8-minute long solos in the middle of such songs as Jailbreak, Let there be rock, etc. Take for example Kirk Hammet....a guitarist which many of my friends think is far, FAR superior to Angus Young. I saw Kirk hammet play live, right in front of my eyes on Oct 27th 2004. He was playing like 10 feet away from me. Yeah, yeah he had is wah wah and stuff up there and I was not very impressed with his solo(s). It was absolutely nothing in comparison to Angus Young's live solos. (Not that im saying Kirk Hammet is a bad guitarist or anything, Metallica is one of my favorite bands) i'm just saying that Angus Young clearly deals out some very skillful playing when he plays those solos, with no backup guitarists, wah wah pedals, distortion pedals, wammy bars, or any type of device...it's just him..and his SG...

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

totally agree man angus doesnt use distortion pedals wammy bars or any thing just plain old gibson sg and he can still bust out increadibly long and awsome solos and he has his very own signature sg its totally awsome cearly angus young is one of the most underated guitarist he should always be on the top ten guitarist list

[Paranoidd]

acdc is one the most creative bands there is and theyre songs do not sound the same

Would you like a shovel to help you toss that bullshit?

SRV
Eric Clapton
Steve Vai
Eddie Van Halen
Duane Allman
David Gilmour
Santana
Martin Barre

[long live rock]

Angus isn't necessarily known for his guitar talent. The thing that makes him a legend is his stage presence. Who else thought up the duck walking, crazy-ness of his performances? That's why AC/DC is known, not that the music is bad, but because of his stage antics.



Actually Angus got the duck-walk from Chuck Berry. AC/DC has a lot of influences much like a lot of other bands. The band is very proud of being repetitive, as would I. Not many bands can stick around for 30 years and NEVER change their sound. They also went through losing one of the best singers ever back in '80. And never lost a beat on getting cd's out. AC/DC may not be as talented as other bands, but their is just something about them that keeps them together and staying on the stage.

[long live rock]

It is all opinion where you think guitarists should be ranked. I personally think Angus is better than half the guitarists listed above. And I have to be honest that I have not heard a couple of them. EVH he is right up there with Angus but EVH does a lot with distortion and the whammy bar. Page is better. Clapton and SRV I have the same problem as I do with EVH (not so much SRV). The rest I know are good but personally I don't like them too much. But Hendrix. Way too heavy on the distortion and whammy. I like Hendrix and he is good but the sound just blends and melts together.

[Bongo Extraordinaire]

they wouldve been a great band to see in the aussie clubs. dunno about their records

[Ulysses]

every song u just listed is crap apart from riff raff and jailbreak

thanks for the positive imput :rolleyes: , care to list why they are crap instead of just stating some opinionated information with no back up.

Since when does running a mostly clean channel directly through a marshall and "not using a whammy or distortion" have any relevance to skill at guitar?

As I mentioned, Angus does use SG's with vibratos (not on all songs).

[seizure_salad]

AC/DC is a unique band, in the sense that even though their songs sound that same, and are based around the same chords, they are still awesome. And Angus Young is a pretty **** good guitarist. :evil:

Oh, OK.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

try playing thuderstruck none of those guitarist could hold up that finger work for 5 min long like angus could and still but out a face melting solo angus is better than most of those guitarist up there thats a popularity contest people just like jimy cuz hes a stoner and bob marley too he sux at guitar angus is alot better just underated

Jimi Hendrix's popularity is solely based on the fact that he did drugs!

What do you deduce for us next, that Joe Satriani is only popular because he's bald?

[Paranoidd]

http://www.everythingsg.com/celebs/angus2.jpg

Yes, I already mentioned two posts up that he doesn't always use a vibrola. Way to read.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

im saying its a populatity contest plus like in jimi's case now also u have to point out there are some artist up there that i do admit are better than angus such as jimmy page hes totally talented but angus is really good and should be up on the top ten guitarist list even if u dont like acdc u have to admit to play a song like thunderstruck or the very rapid solo on whole lotta rosie (live) takes much skill

[Paranoidd]

Thunderstruck is not that difficult.

http://www.mxtabs.net/tabs.php?path=Guitar,a,24,Ac%2Fdc,Thunderstruck+Ta b,185516

One string hammer-ons at the beginning, and a moderate solo.

http://www.mxtabs.net/tabs.php?path=Guitar,j,5547,Jimi+Hendrix+Experienc e,Voodoo+Child+%28slight+Return%29,184037

Yeah...gg. Not to mention Jimi sings at the same time, and was a much more well rounded musician. Angus is limited to one-dimensional, predictable solos, and is lucky that Malcolm knows how to write and hold things together.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

watch the music video and try to keep up with that finger work it takes practice i bet he did it until he was pro the finger movment is perfect with only one stroke are u telling me u could play that song just as well as angus young i find that hard to believe (no offence not saying ur a crappy guitarist or anything)

The finger tapping part at the beginning is not hard at all. I was watching my friends 14 year old brother do it on the weekend.

It's not that complicated...look at some stuff by John Petrucci or Rusty Cooley.

Now THAT is hard.

sure u were and micheal jackson is still a man

[Paranoidd]

sure u were and micheal jackson is still a man

Why, you have trouble playing a basic tapping sequence on one string?

Thunderstuck is usually one of the first things people learn on guitar, it's an easy, fun song to play.

[ArcLite]

Everytime I come into this thread the discussion is about Thunderstruck's intro. To clear it all up. Yes, it is easy as hell to play. Yes, Angus picked every note of it on the studio version. And yes, he did sometimes live/you can play it with one hand if you so choose.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

if it is sooo easy as hell to play how come skilled cover bands that have made cd's and most of thier covers sound good try to play thunderstruck but it sounds like crap
how come it always sounds off like the sequence is off or the timing its not as easy as u think u may think ur playing it but infact i bet ur playing somthing similar to it but not quite it the timing might not be right u might get tired or maybe its just wrong but the fact is no one that ive heard has been able to play it well it always sounds bad and if u know of an artist who has succesfully copied it i would be intrested to find out who

[ArcLite]

Let me ask you something chief, do you even play guitar? If not your arguement is completely flawed. If you do, really, just go and try to play it, it is not hard I can assure you. And not hard to play it correctly at that.

[rippa32]

Yes Thunderstruck is easy. And Paranoidd if your just goin to post about how crap AC/DC is then piss off.

[floyd.the.barber]

what are peoples favourite ac/dc to play on guitar

[shadow_stalker]

back in black, its fun

[floyd.the.barber]

back in black and highway to hell are great :)

[rippa32]

Does anyone have the Highway to Hell tabs?

[ArcLite]

I recall a good one at www.ultimate-guitar.com

[rippa32]

Thanks

[MattyBlade]

last 4 songs i just listened to on the mp3 player

dirt deeds
problem child
thunderstruck
razors edge...

And rippa32 - highway to hell, as with most ac/dc songs is pretty **** easy... the solo though may be a little difficult

[MattyBlade]

If he's talking about thunderstruck i agree, mad easy. And i also agree with you here...the steve vai duel in crossroads is immensly awesome.... i love watching the karate kid shred on his tele :P

What are you retarded or do you just not play guitar ? It's one thing to say this with evidence but maybe you are just a crappy guitarist ... thunderstruck is incredibally easy to play

Me >Your Theory

[eddierulesVH]

The reason AC/DC is so good Angus knows how to play real guitar he doesnt you effects are nothing strait out of a marshall

[The Essential]

yeah totally...

[Deano_Geetar]

All of their songs sound exactly the same to me.

As a HUGE AC/DC fan, i can admit all there songs sound simple and the same but that doesn't mean they are garbage. They are still a great band and yes Angus Young is not that much of a great guitarist, he is decent but hes no steve vai. Well he didn't exactly have much time to learn, i mean he joined the band when he was only 14. Malcom started AC/DC when Angus was only 14 years old. The boy was in the recording studio at the age of about 15 or 16. And once you think about it most bands songs sound very similar, of course they do make songs which sound different, maybe and acoustic songs ect. but think about al the new screamo bands and all that ****, There songs sound exactly the same the only difference between them and AC/DC is that there riffs are badly played downtoned powerchords and maybe a good attempt and shredding and we can't miss out the fingertapping(which usually doesnt even fit into the song lol). If Ac/Dc sounds the same and people get sick of their sound then howcome they are still a sucessful band? I mean not many bands can do what Ac/Dc have done. They've been rockin since the 70's and are still touring in 2005!

And highway to hell is very simple to play on guitar(like most AC/DC songs but hey it sounds good)

Just play these chords in order for the intro/main riff: A (x3) , D/f#(x2) G(x1) , D/f#(x2) G(x1) , D/f#(x2) G(x1) , D/F#(x1) , A(x2)

[nstepho]

has everyone heard about the main road in Melbourne, Australia that is now named ACDC street? It was the road where they filmed "a long way to the top". it was just renamed recently.
Yes, its called ACDC Lane.

[Paranoidd]

Yes Thunderstruck is easy. And Paranoidd if your just goin to post about how crap AC/DC is then piss off.

Are you stupid? Where did I say AC/DC was crap, dumb****? I like the band, I just accept reality instead of trying to argue a biased view of Angus Young with no proper basis.

[floyd.the.barber]

All of their songs sound exactly the same to me.
if you think all their songs sound the same you must be stupid :lol:

[AB/CD]

Whole Lotta Rosie, Thunderstruck, Riff Raff, Jailbreak, Let There Be Rock
so u want me to give reasons y they r crap compared to other songs

whole lotta rosie-dirty eyes was a much better version of this song every1 says the song is amazing and ok fair enough its good i can listen to it but i dont htink its their best song ever.
thunderstruck-wasnt much effort in it angus came up with the intro while doodling with his guitar and recorded it personally i dont like the song much becos well it doesnt really sound like AC/DC to me
riff raff-2nd best song off powerage
jailbreak-just an amazing song
let there be rock-good first time round 2nd time round its alrgith 3rd time just irritates me i listen to the album but i mostly skip that song cos they have far better songs than that example rocker

[AB/CD]

he joined the band when he was only 14. Malcom started AC/DC when Angus was only 14 years old. The boy was in the recording studio at the age of about 15 or 16

actually angus didnt join when he was 14 nor was he in a studio at 15 or 16 dunno if u no this but they lied bout his age an stuff t make the uniform like fit in with his age an stuff was actually more about 18 in the studio cos Bon was around 10 years older than malcolm when he joined and Angus is only a few years younger than malcolm

[JACKROXYOU]

Are you stupid? Where did I say AC/DC was crap, dumb****? I like the band, I just accept reality instead of trying to argue a biased view of Angus Young with no proper basis.

**** dude you can go off on people cant you

thunderstruck is uber easy

[Paranoidd]

**** dude you can go off on people cant you

thunderstruck is uber easy

Yes.

I hate when people automatically assume I'm bashing somebody just because I'm viewing them impartially. I've said I like AC/DC at least twice in this thread.

[SucktheSystem]

I can safely say that AC/DC is the most overrated, repetitive, and lame band in the history of rock. And that's hard to do, there's some pretty crappy bands out there.

[rippa32]

Are you stupid? Where did I say AC/DC was crap, dumb****? I like the band, I just accept reality instead of trying to argue a biased view of Angus Young with no proper basis.

What I meant was that all you did was say that Angus isn't all that talented. I know that the people you mentioned are more talented but that doesnt mean Angus is crap.

[rippa32]

And yes I realise that that guy didnt know anything about playing guitar. I could play thunderstruck first time I tried.

[long live rock]

I don't know if anyone realizes this but as long as everyone has their own opinion this is never going to end and somebody is always going to be pissed off.

[Johnny B. Good]

try playing thuderstruck none of those guitarist could hold up that finger work for 5 min long like angus could and still but out a face melting solo angus is better than most of those guitarist up there thats a popularity contest people just like jimy cuz hes a stoner and bob marley too he sux at guitar angus is alot better just underated
bob marley wasn't up there, man you guys know how to read well.
have you "Stairway to Heaven" live? Right there is 7 minutes of difficult finger work (I like to see Angus play with an 18 string guitar that clean) and busts out with one of the best solos ever

[JACKROXYOU]

very nice

you put into perspective

you here about bob marley's body bein moved?

[Johnny B. Good]

nope, what are they doin wiht it?

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

hes retard jonny b good nobody in this entire thread said that angus was better than jimi page led zeppelin is alot better than acdc effin retard the argument was that angus should be on the top ten guitarist list ive seen many list on line and on most of them stupid as hell bob marley is on it im like wtf there alot better guitarist than him im not saying he sux but man and jimi hendrix common his solos suck hes a good artist but to me not a legendary guitarist van halen is really good but some of they re songs are boring but acdc has many , many good songs they should have some appraise plus they just got enducted into the rock and roll hall of fame anyways my favorite acdc song is EVIL WALKS

[JACKROXYOU]

nope, what are they doin wiht it?

2 words

FAN BOY

[Johnny B. Good]

some of they re songs are boring but acdc has many , many good songs
I couldn't tell the difference between their songs, so does redundancy make their songs good?

[JACKROXYOU]

yea but on a more serious note just cause an halen has some bad songs, but he still is a faster more skilled player than angus

but angus still kicks ***

[gtarriff]

All I know is that AC/DC has a lot of great songs (some most people never heard of). I don't really understand why people say all of the songs sound so much alike. All the songs are similar in some ways and I don't think AC/DC ever wrote one song that was a soft, slow and innocent melody like stairway to heaven starts out, but I think they are great and I'm gonna keep listening to them until I get tired of them.

[RNR]

Angus kicks the crap out of Van Halen songwriting-wise, His solos actually sound good.

Trivia:


Who influenced Angus to play guitar and why did he start wearing a school boy uniform on stage?????

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

his bro malcolm and his sister she also came up with the name acdc from a vaccum cleaner

[LocoDiablo]

his bro malcolm and his sister she also came up with the name acdc from a vaccum cleaner



:chug: someones been studyin

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

lol man i love acdc

[LocoDiablo]

thats sad though malcom played before angus and look at the fame angus gets compared to malcom.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

who was the very first singer of acdc?

[JACKROXYOU]

his bro malcolm and his sister she also came up with the name acdc from a vaccum cleaner

wow welcome to 6 pages ago man

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

why did phil rudd leave acdc for a little while which is why they have soo many dumers

[gtarriff]

(For the first singer question)
All i remember is the first guy wasnt bon his last name was evans thats all I know oh and that evans was terrible

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

true his last name is evans and he was terrible thats why they fired him and hired they re limo driver bon scott

[rippa32]

It was Dave Evans. Phil Rudd left cause he got into a fight with Malcolm. Simon Wright left cause of musical differences and Chris Slade was kicked out after the band had a jam session with Phil and decided to bring him back. And I have explained countless times where they got there name from.

[Ulysses]

Simon Wright had liking of Dio and when long time friend Ronnie James Dio asked him if he could assist them in the studio he accepted which led him to leave AC/DC in favour of Dio.

[MattyBlade]

if you think all their songs sound the same you must be stupid :lol:

exactly my favorite stuff is before back in black i think.... love bon scotts vocals on highway to hell, the entire dirty deeds album, and of course high voltage

[MattyBlade]

who was the very first singer of acdc?

with posts like this it confirms that me > your theory.

[rippa32]

How does asking who the first singer is make you better than him?

[MattyBlade]

That would be the one. what a guy

[MattyBlade]

true his last name is evans and he was terrible thats why they fired him and hired they re limo driver bon scott

best move they ever made :smash: the bon years were my favorites ... too bad he died before i was born

edit: if you knew the guys last name was evans why did you have to ask and not just google it :naughty:

edit #2(after reading more carefully and doing some math): I realized now you guys were doing some trivia hahaha im sorry

[LiZZySkYnRd7^]

Bon Scott was one of a kind indeed. People often compare Brian Johnsons voice and his, and say they can't tell them apart and to me that is insanity. Don't get me wrong, as far as replacement singers go, Brian was ace...but there never was and never will be a voice like Bons. The pure embodiment of lust and rock and roll if ever there was one. Rock n Roll personified.

/ sidenote: I read that Ozzy wrote suicide solution in honour of Bon...is this true?

Bon > Brian . It's quite simple really and i agree with you entirely. Problem child is probably my favorite song, and to me it seems like brian is trying to emulate bon, which is probably why he has his own unique sound as well.

I wish bon never died :upset:

[LiZZySkYnRd7^]

My favourite song is Livewire, it just gives me a feeling like I cannot explain...but hey, the truly best of all feelings are inexplicable. Bon is bad, and when he said it, you believed it. I'm with you Matt... there was plenty of music left in that one.

[angus_young1990]

angus young is the reason i play guitar.

ac/dc is the reason i listen to music.

People who say AC/DC mad e18 albums that sound exactly the same are ball lickers

[angus_young1990]

i think the best AC/DC song ever is let there be rock when they played live in paris for the album "let there be rock the movie"

[AB/CD]

ah does any1 kow y powerage is called powerage?
why if you want blood is called if you want blood?

[JACKROXYOU]

i know if you want blood you got it means

it was in a war movie they watched where the guy yells " If it's blood they want its blood they'll get"

[AB/CD]

wrong and i cant be arsed waiting on answers nwo so im jsut gonna explain them

powerage-the figured weve had stone age ice age an all the other ages so they thoght well whats this we r in at the minute they figured powerage and named it that

if you want blood-well ok the album is named after a line some guy said on stage whcih was "if you want blood then here have it" or somethign along them lines so they named the album after that (they guy didnt use the actual line if you want blood youve got it)

[RNR]

Knowing ac/dc, that line would be inolved in some sort of a bar fight :chug:

[rippa32]

I see you have the donington DVD.

[rippa32]

i think the best AC/DC song ever is let there be rock when they played live in paris for the album "let there be rock the movie"

Why is it called a movie when it is clearly only an album. ( I don't have this album.)

[Ulysses]

"Let There Be Rock" should be renowned for being a great album and probably my most favourite besides "If You Want Blood". The part concert, part documentary film contains songs such as Live Wire and Highway to Hell that arn't even on "Led There Be Rock". I am yet to see this movie, I'll have to purchase it off the net sometime.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

my favortie acdc album of all time is for those about to rock i love taht album has many good songs that and acdc live

LAST NIGHT I GOT AN ANGUS SIGNATURE SG OoO

[JACKROXYOU]

the $1800 one with the devil boy on the top?

i've had it for about a year

[LocoDiablo]

man i want that guitar but its too freakin much for a guitar so one day when i have money to through around i will get it

[punkster998]

my favortie acdc album of all time is for those about to rock i love taht album has many good songs that and acdc live

LAST NIGHT I GOT AN ANGUS SIGNATURE SG OoO



The way you type annoys me.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

sorry

[Marty]

i wouldnt want to get a signature model, as much as i love angus and AC/DC, signature models just dont interest me. You also end up forking out extra cash just because its called the Angus Young model.

[EightMilesHigh]

You also end up forking out extra cash just because its called the Angus Young model.

Exactly. A lot of people get boned via that system

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

yeh but i wanna support angus hes my idol and it looks kool but ur totally right

[Paranoidd]

If I'm not mistaken (I'm going off the top of my head here as I don't feel like checking the gibby site), the only difference between the Angus Young model and normal SG other than cosmetics (headstock, engraving on the trapeze, possibly fretboard markings) are the optional vibrola, and the pickups.

If the cost difference is that substantial for pickups and/or cosmetics, it's just not worth it.

correct my friend...to be honest i prefer the look of the other SG's anyway. But the Angus model is definetely a collectors item.

Oh so it is a movie I thought it was just a CD cause i saw it was a part of the Bonfire Boxset.

[Ulysses]

Oh so it is a movie I thought it was just a CD cause i saw it was a part of the Bonfire Boxset.

It also comes separate from what I saw when I looked it up on the net a few months back and yeah its a doco/concert type thing.

[AB/CD]

downside is it can only be bought on video not DVd as of yet hopefully they will release it in the meantime im trying to find someway to copy it onto DVD

[rippa32]

It also comes separate from what I saw when I looked it up on the net a few months back and yeah its a doco/concert type thing.
I think you are thinking of somethin else. I know there is a VHS called Let There Be Rock but I think that what comes with the Bonfire boxset is different. I am not too sure. Does anyone have this boxset?

[AB/CD]

emmm yeah the bonfire box set has 2 disks of let there be rock but no documentary stuff on it as far as i no i wont listen to it cos im keeping the box set in good condition but the box set version has extra songs on it like T.N.T an stuff

[JACKROXYOU]

emmm yeah the bonfire box set has 2 disks of let there be rock but no documentary stuff on it as far as i no i wont listen to it cos im keeping hte box set in good condition but the box set version has extra songs on it like T.N.T an stuff

what did you say?

[AB/CD]

what u mean what did i say can u not read or did it confuse u?

[JACKROXYOU]

tnx for the edit i understand now

i dont care about condition bonfire rocks

[AB/CD]

ah it does but see im a huge AC/DC fan and everything has to be in perfect condition i listend to each of the cds once except let there be rock cos id pretty much heard it all on the video

[rippa32]

ah it does but see im a huge AC/DC fan and everything has to be in perfect condition i listend to each of the cds once except let there be rock cos id pretty much heard it all on the video

So youre saying that if you buy an AC/DC cd you only listen to it once?

[AB/CD]

nah just that box set the cds i can get again and the records ill only listen to once just to make sure theres nothing wrong with them

[whatsnexttothemoon_powerage]

AC/DC is the greatest band ever! They are one of the few bands that signify rock.

[RNR]

Yup, Ac/dc IS rock n roll.

[angusrules]

i think you winy girls that like green day or some other sucky band should get a life saying angus is overated cause he has more talent than me and every one on this fourm
ANGUS RULES!!!

[angusrules]

and whoever say ac/dc rocks they rock!!

[jolle]

angus is a guitarshredding riffmachine!!!

yep yep

ANGUS PRIDE

[rippa32]

nah just that box set the cds i can get again and the records ill only listen to once just to make sure theres nothing wrong with them

Your'e one of a kind buying two copies. AC/DC are my favourite band but there is no way i would buy two of the same album. If you were that careful with the originals why don't you just burn em and only listen to the copy?

[AB/CD]

i dont have 2 copys of every album unless u count the records
i have every album on cd if 1 gets badly damaged and starts jumping ill buy a new 1 ya no and im very careful with originals

[rippa32]

Oh ok. So do you buy all the Records new?

[AB/CD]

nah i go to record fairs and get originals and stuff off people ive got highway to hell with a poster an stuff got back in black and the heatseeker single also got an original copy of if you want blood (keep best care of that)

[slaytalica25]

ac/dc is awesome. me and my dad have built up a good collection of their cds. all their cds rock.

[shawnson]

indeed. i am a proud owner of highway to hell, the razors edge, for those about to rock, live 2cd, and back in black, and i will never sell any of them.
