- AC/DC Set To Release New Album This Year 2008 But Will They Design a New AC/DC T-Shirt?
The waiting is almost over! AC/DC fans can expect the band’s next album of new material sometime later this year, but will fans get a new AC/DC band merchandise t-shirt? The band are currently recording in Vancouver with producer Brendan O’Brien and long time audio engineer Mike Fraser. This will be the band’s first collection of new material since the release of Stiff Upper Lip in 2000.
You Shook Me All Night Long
This song reminds me that true love is worth waiting for and I can’t help but wonder what being married to my soulmate will be like. I’m looking forward to a honeymoon where we will rock all night long every night for the rest of our lives.
The rock band AC/DC formed in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by brothers Angus and Malcolm Young. Although the band are considered pioneers of hard rock and heavy metal, its members have always classified their music as “rock ‘n’ roll”.
AC/DC underwent several line-up changes before releasing their first album, High Voltage, in 1975. Membership remained stable until bassist Cliff Williams replaced Mark Evans in 1977. In 1979, the band recorded their highly successful album Highway to Hell. Lead singer and co-songwriter Bon Scott died on February 19, 1980, after a night of heavy alcohol consumption. The group briefly considered disbanding, but soon ex-Geordie singer Brian Johnson was selected as Scott’s replacement. Later that year, the band released their best selling album, Back in Black.
The band’s next album, For Those About to Rock (We Salute You), was also highly successful and was their first album to reach number one in the United States. AC/DC declined in popularity soon after the departure of drummer Phil Rudd in 1983. Poor record sales continued until the release of The Razors Edge in 1990. Phil Rudd returned in 1994 and contributed to the band’s 1995 album Ballbreaker. Stiff Upper Lip was released in 2000 and was well received by critics … so you can watch some of their youtube videos, while you wait for their new LP to come out.

bonfireNY rocks out with AC/DC cover band, Live Wire, as they tear up the stage with a cover of Back In Black so good they almost sound like the real deal. (They look it too thanks to their spot-on costumes).
acdsherocks posts an explosive cover of T.N.T. from the all gal AC/DC tribute band, AC/DShe. Women to the left and right indeed.
TarikAjr rocks out to Back In Black before showing off his collection of AC/DC wares. This kid wears nothing but AC/DC gear, seriously. We’re talking underwear and all. We’re in such awe, we had to put his photo on the homepage.
andorarock takes it a step further. His collection is so big it required a TRILOGY of videos to showcase it all. We just want to know where can we get one of those reversible jean jacket vests?!!?!
SoloDallas absolutely tears-up Angus’ guitar part on Thunderstruck. By the expression on his face at the 1:27 minute mark, he may have torn-up his fingers as well. Priceless. SoloDallas, we salute you!
KWRTZK went the other route and and played air DRUMS along to Thunderstruck. We’re impressed.
And, if svetbrat has anything to say about it, we’ll be watching AC/DC fan videos on YouTube for ages as he brings along his nephew, Nico, to jam on Highway To Hell. We imagine you’ll be able to catch Nico rocking out in your local bar in about 15 years from the looks of it.
