About ACDC

AC/DC are an Australian rock band, fashioned in 1973 by brothers Malcolm and Angus Young.

Up to now they're one in every of the highest grossing bands of all time. AC/DC underwent several line-up changes before releasing their initial album, High Voltage, on seventeen February 1975. Membership remained stable until bassist Mark Evans was replaced by Cliff Williams in 1977 for the album Powerage. Inside months of recording the album Highway to Hell, lead singer and co-songwriter Bon Scott died on 19 February 1980, once an evening of heavy alcohol consumption. The group briefly thought of disbanding, however Scott's parents urged them to continue and rent a brand new vocalist. Ex-Geordie singer Brian Johnson was auditioned and selected to replace Scott.
