AC/DC Edit

Aka Ac-Dc

(1973, Australia)   |   |   |   |   |   | 

( fr ) AC/DC are a rock band formed in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young and his brother, lead guitarist Angus Young. The band has sold over 150 million albums worldwide, making them one of the most successful hard rock acts ever. Their 1980 album Back in Black has sold 42 million units worldwide (21 million in the US alone) and is the second highest selling album of all time and the biggest selling album by any band. In its recording career, the band has had two distinctive lead singers, and fans tend to divide its history into the 'Bon Scott era' (1974-80), and the 'Brian Johnson era' (1980-present).

AC/DC's Opening Act at Giants Stadium: Anvil!
Vindication! Would-be/might-still-be Canadian metal gods Anvil, a hard-luck crew whose three-decade quest for stardom is lovely chronicled in the new doc Anvil! The Story of Anvil (a fantastic film lovingly praised by Camille here) will be doing a modest little NYC show this summer: at fuckin' Giants Stadium, opening for AC/DC on July 31st. (The two bands hit Boston a few days prior.) Let's hope they bring the dildo out of retirement. [Read more]

Eminem’s Relapse Is Just What the Doctor Ordered
When tracks from Eminem's Relapse LP began leaking back in December, there was certainly some early cause for concern. After all, Number One sounded a lot like number two to us, and the song and video for We Made You had us wondering whether Em had let his Us Weekly subscription expire back in 2005. Well, now that we've spent a few weeks with the LP as a whole, we definitely think that it's a return to form for Shady after the middling disappointment that was Encore. And it turns out America concurs, as Relapse became the fastest-selling record of 2009 when it moved some 606,000 units last week.Impressively, Eminem's first-week sales figures are the highest since AC/DC teamed up with Wal-Mart back in October to sell 784,000 copies of Black Ice, and were only down about 15 percent from what [Read more]

Anvil Get Their Due
Everybody loves a happy ending, and now thanks to the tremendous success of terrific real life Spinal Tap documentary The Story Of Anvil, the future's looking bright for Canada's once forgotten metal heroes. Having already appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live (and delighting famous headbangers like Keanu Reeves and Chris Martin) Anvil continue the victory lap with appearances at the Rocklahoma and Download Festivals and gigs opening for AC/DC next month. Also in the works are a DVD, soundtrack, book, Rock Band tracks, the film's TV premiere, and the rerelease of the band-funded 13th album whose recording was documented by the film. With any luck, someone will build Anvil a proper website to promote it.Continue reading Anvil Get Their Due... [Read more]

I had all albums, merchandise and videos, Ms Crebbin said.“I was too young to see them when they toured Australia last time, so this was going to be my turn.” Ms Creebin did admit, however, that the ticket price of $125 would have put many off, especially as the group was threatening to sing “new stuff”. However the cancellation of the tour has not surprised Michael Chugg, whose touring company currently has concerts for musical giants such as AC/DC, Simon and Garfunkel [Read more]
