AC/DC

AC/DC is the most influential rock band in history.  They have collected a large fanbase worldwide, and their songs have appeared on commercials, movies, and have received lots of airplay since their debut.  I ain't a die-hard fan of the band, but they have several good songs.

AC/DC was formed in Australia, by brothers, the lead guitarist Angus Young and bassist Malcom Young.  'AC/DC' was on the back of their sister's sewing machine, and it stood for 'Alternating Current/Direct Current', and the two brothers named their band 'AC/DC' and included a lightning in the middle.

There first singer was Bon Scott, and they had lots of success with him.  Bon Scott was the singer when the album "Highway to Hell was released. The song itself was about a dangerous road in Australia where Scott use to drink with his friends.  Scott later died in the same year 1979.

After finding Brian Jonson, AC/DC was creating a new album in 1980, "Back in Black".  Since then, they have become a notable rock band, known worldwide and released "Black Ice" in 2009 and mentioned a newer album to be released in the future.
