I think it is the rock n roll band that makes the toughest music in the world. Simple and just as perfect ... the reason I want to jump every time I listen to dirty deeds done dirt cheap !
It is also one of the bands that today's thrash bands are influenced by. for other: (see motorhead )
Apart from his music, what remains in mind is his guitarist's act of jumping strangely while singing, pretending to cross his feet, which is actually not easy to describe with words.
The group that occupies a large area in the concept called "music" for me. It's been years ... once in a while, when I'm off course, when I'm confused, when I'm angry, when I get tarnish, when I get sick, these animal dudes are my friends who show me the way to the light at the end of the tunnel.

Angus Young's interview with the california chronicle:
"this is our biggest tour yet. the longer you go, the more people want to see you," angus, 53, said. "it's been a long time since we've played live.but it's like swimming ... once you're in the water, it comes right back to you. the fans have probably forgotten what ac / dc have been about so they ' re thinking, 'we better go see them quick'. "
on ac / dc's origins:
"the name of the group and the school suit is down to my sister margaret. we were playing in a sydney nightclub and needed to call ourselves something quick. when i spotted the letters 'ac / dc' on the back of her sewing machine, it sounded best .my older brother george, who was a member of the easybeats, said, 'you need something people will remember you by.' i tried different costumes including a superman suit, a zorro outfit and once even dressed up as a gorilla. it was margaret who came upwith the school uniform. the hard part was to convince me. "
"i still love putting the shorts, cap and school tie on before a show - it gives you that energy. i become not me but the guy in the school suit. that's better in a way because i'd be standing up there feeling really shy otherwise. "
"malcolm [young, guitar] was 20 and i was 18 when we formed ac / dc - we just wanted to be in a good rock band. the music scene in australia in 1973 was very middle of the road - on the radio, you didn't hear anybody like us.
the easybeats became a big band when they had a hit with 'friday on my mind'. george would tell us to get our guitars and come into the studio for a jam with them to gain experience. "
on ac / dc's phenomenal success:
"i've never thought of ac / dc as being a no.1 band. we're not anything special - we were just a good group who could go anywhere in the world and people seemed to like what we did. malcolm always used to say: 'once you get to no.1, there's only one place left to go ... and that's down. so it's always better to be striving for more every time to move ac / dc up and really earn our success. scottish background gave us a good grounding.we had a kind of doggedness and determination.
"so the best thing about success is i get to be creative. i feel that every time we write songs or go into the studio to make another record. i get a real kick out of that. the biggest buzz is taking songs we've created and see them come alive on stage. "
"i walk on stage and crawl off. it's very physically demanding. but at 53, that's what keeps me fit. that drive keeps me going.
"in the minutes before a show, i still get nervous. when i'm standing behind the stage and the intro tape is playing, i've got to focus my mind and try to find that little schoolboy devil and get into the mindset of the character. when we come off tour, i usually crawl off and hide under a rock somewhere. i don't want to live in that school suit persona all the time. "
The band that has never compromised on their quality during their music career. one of my favorite bands as a rock n roll listener. as follows;
these guys have brought a wonderful album to the music world like "back in black". Would every part of an album be gas? it happens, it happens. the album is enormous in every sense from start to finish.
They have continued their music life in its purest form for years without disturbing the phenomenon called rock n roll.
In my opinion, it is the group that should not make an album anymore. ok everything is great on black ice too, incredible riffs, of course great vocals. But it doesn't work anymore, we don't eat it anymore. It could be an album that sold 42 million copies. He may well be proud of making rock'n roll top the charts again years later. The song bearing the name of the album may have very, very good guitar solos. but none of this can cover up the fact that acdc has now become an aging and repetitive group.
Rock band that has played such a blast without worrying about people calling themselves "the best" and still doing it in the same line.
The sisters of malcolm * and angus * margaret one day * see the ac / dc sign on the sewing machine (in some sources it also goes as an electric bracket). He proposes the name acdc to his brothers who think of a group name .
