The eight-year gap between “Black Ice” and previous “Stiff Upper Lip” is their longest between AC/DC's successive studio albums. It was produced by Brendan O'Brien. O'Brien tried to recapture the Rock sound of the band's early work, as opposed to the Blues orientation of “Ballbreaker” and “Stiff Upper Lip”; he suggested adding "soul crooning" to Brian Johnson's singing. The songs were mostly recorded live in the studio; engineer Mike Fraser used only sparse overdubs and effects to keep the tracks as close to the originals as possible.
“Black Ice” has the longest running time of any AC/DC studio album. It was released exclusively in physical formats, as the band did not sell its music digitally at the time.
“Black Ice” peaked at number one in 29 countries, including Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. It was the second best-selling record of 2008 and had shipped 6000000 copies worldwide by December. The track "War Machine" won the Best Hard Rock Performance category at the Grammys. “Black Ice” was also nominated for many awards, including the Grammy, Brit, Juno and ARIA Music Awards; and was supported by a world tour between 2008 and 2010.

"Blow Up Your Video" turned out to be band's most successful album since 1981's "For Those About To Rock", even though it was chock full of filler. The driving album opener, "Heatseeker", turned out to be a surprising Top Ten single in the U.K., while the anthemic "That's the Way I Want to Rock n' Roll" proved to be another highlight (video clips were filmed for both songs, as well). But from there on (with the exception of "Kissin' Dynamite" and "This Means War"), it gets pretty unfocused. The album is glutted with such throwaways as "Nick of Time", "Ruff Stuff" and "Two's Up" - completely missing the point of what made such previous albums as "Back In Black" so great (they simply did not contain a weak moment). "Blow Up Your Video" also marked the return of AC/DC's early production team, Harry Vanda and George Young, who man the boards for the first time since 1978's "If You Want Blood".
This was the final studio album to feature drummer Simon Wright. Although he wrote all the lyrics on the album, it would be the last on which Brian Johnson was credited as a songwriter (all songs on subsequent albums were written by the Young brothers).
The album was the band's biggest-selling album of new material since “For Those About to Rock We Salute You”, being certified Platinum in the US. “Blow Up Your Video” reached No. 2 in the UK and No. 12 in the US. The album was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental in 1989, but lost to Jethro Tull's “Crest of a Knave”.

AC/DC “Fly On The Wall” /LP/

Though AC/DC were never quite as sly and subversive with singer Brian Johnson, they have nevertheless put out a lot of top drawer stuff since the Bon Scott days (particularly the one-two punch of flawless "Back In Black" and "For Those About To Rock"), and continuing right up to the present day.
1985's "Fly On The Wall" gets a bad reputation for muddy production and poor vocals. But listening to it you'll have no complaints whats ever. In addition to the fan favorites ("Shake Your Foundations", "Sink The Pink"), you'll get unheralded cuts like the title track or the incendiary stomper "Playing With Girls" (inexplicably not hailed as one of their greatest songs). Additionally, you get atypical stylistic shifts like the laid back groover "Danger", which features an extraordinary lightning-in-a-bottle guitar solo by Angus Young - still very much in top creative form throughout.
Still, "Fly On The Wall" has enough high points to make it worth owning if you’re a hardcore AC/DC fan, though it's one of their weaker overall efforts. P.S. The public and band agreed: this was their lowest charting album of new material since "Powerage", and the band has played nothing from it since the '85 tour.
Instead of issuing your usual run-of-the-mill video clips advertising your new album, AC/DC decided to try something a little different for their 1985 record, "Fly On The Wall". A storyline was created that would run through five of the album's songs, and while the story wasn't exactly on par with Citizen Kane (it centered around the band playing away at a city bar, while strange characters were introduced per song), it proved to be a rather original idea amidst the usual corny clips of the '80s. The most popular video was for the mid-paced rocker "Danger" (which showed a sleazy photographer snooping around the band), which was played regularly on MTV's Heavy Metal programs. Other clips included "Shake Your Foundations" (as the title hints, the band reduces the bar to rubble), and a rather embarrassing one for "Sink the Pink" (in which a disco dancer shimmy's away to AC/DC's thunderous Heavy Metal...come on!).
The album was not well received by critics and sold only one million copies upon its release, as opposed to the success of their previous albums, “Back In Black” and “For Those About To Rock We Salute You”. The singles "Shake Your Foundations" and "Sink the Pink", however, are seen as standouts from the album, and both songs were later included on the band's soundtrack album “Who Made Who” for Stephen King's film Maximum Overdrive.
Overall, this is a great album, lots of great songs and Johnsons voice is awesome!!

Recorded in Paris, France, “For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)” was the third and final album produced for the band by Robert John "Mutt" Lange. The name of the album was inspired by a book Angus Young read, entitled “For Those About to Die, We Salute You”, about Roman gladiators. The album was a follow-up to their highly successful album “Back in Black”. While "Back In Black" was infused with the energy and spirit of paying tribute to Bon Scott, it became apparent on the follow-up that the band really did miss Scott more than it initially indicated. Brian Johnson's lyrics started to seem more calculated and a bit clichéd, lacking Scott's devil-may-care sense of humor. And the band itself slowed down the tempo frequently, sounding less aggressive and inspired.
On "For Those About to Rock We Salute You", the case for the band's talents is finally made with undeniable force and clarity. You want anthems? Here, they abound, from the title track's avalanche attack — complete with booming cannonades, of course — to "Night of the Long Knives". All ten tunes are aimed straight at the band's testosterone-plagued audience, but the music and lyrics transcend mere calculation. This marginally broader lyrical outlook may again be attributable to Brian Johnson, who writes the songs with band-leader-guitarists Angus and Malcolm Young.
“For Those About To Rock” has sold over 4.000.000 copies in the US. It would be AC/DC's first and only No.1 album in the US Billboard chart until the release of “Black Ice” in October 2008. In Australia, the album peaked at No. 3 on the Kent Music Report Albums Chart. The album has sold an estimated 7.000.000 copies worldwide, making it one of the highest sold AC/DC albums worldwide. In their original 1981 review, Rolling Stone Magazine declared it to be their best album.

While most other rock bands of the era were busy experimenting with Disco or creating studio-perfected epics, AC/DC was one of the few specializing in raw and Bluesy Hard Rock, as evidenced by 1978's live set, "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)".
The album was recorded live during the 1978 Powerage Tour and contains live versions of songs from "T.N.T.", "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "Let There Be Rock", and "Powerage". It is the last Bon Scott-era AC/DC album produced by Harry Vanda and George Young, who also produced the band's first five studio releases. AC/DC's concert at the Apollo Theatre in Glasgow, Scotland on 30 April 1978, was used for the bulk of the recorded material that appeared on the album. It can be clearly heard during "The Jack" when Scott exclaimed "Any virgins in Glasgow?". This concert will also be remembered for the encore when AC/DC came back on stage dressed in the Scottish Football strip. The songs "Dog Eat Dog", the encore "Fling Thing" and the final part of the concert (the reprise of "Rocker") were also performed during the night of the concert but eventually removed from the album. The live rendition of "Dog Eat Dog" was released as the B-side of the single "Whole Lotta Rosie/Dog Eat Dog" in November 1978. It was later released worldwide on the 2009 Box Set "Backtracks". The songs "Fling Thing" and "Rocker" (with its complete guitar solo) appeared only on video releases.
A song with the same title, "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)", appeared on AC/DC's next album, "Highway To Hell".
The album was listed at #2 on Classic Rock magazine's readers' poll of "50 Greatest Live Albums Ever".
“If You Want Blood (You've Got It)” captures the band at the height of their powers with Bon Scott at the helm. This is a great straight ahead Rock album that features some of the best songs from the bands early years, played at maximum volume and energy. Great live album!!

This is the first album to see simultaneous international release. It also was the last AC/DC album to feature Mark Evans on bass.
The cover of the international version, released on 25 July 1977, marked the first appearance of the band's now iconic logo, designed by Gerard Huerta.
This high-voltage, brutal record has a bit of a Bluesier edge than previous AC/DC records, but this is truly the sound of the band reaching its peak. And that's AC/DC's allure in a nutshell - it's sweaty, dirty, nasty Rock, music that is played to the last call and beyond, and they've rarely done that kind of rock better than they did here!
The album got 4x Gold and 7x Platinum certifications.

"Power Up" marks the return of vocalist Brian Johnson, drummer Phil Rudd and bassist Cliff Williams, all of whom left AC/DC before, during, or after the supporting tour for their previous album "Rock Or Bust" (2014). This is also the band's first album since the death of co-founder and rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young in 2017, and it serves as a tribute to him. Malcolm Young is credited as a songwriter on every single song on "Power Up".
Even with the tragic loss of the man with the heaviest right hand in all of Rock’n’Roll, AC/DC have made an album that is a high-voltage celebration of life, the best of times, and the absolutely indomitable, boundless power of a couple of chords and a four-four beat.
It’s never been the point for AC/DC to do anything ‘new’, just to do more of it. That’s why they do it, and that’s why they’re the best at it. And that’s why we love them! But more than ever, "Power Up" is a reminder that this music has a power that belies its apparent simplicity. It's everything you want from music that categorically doesn't 'do' sad. It's just AC/DC being f***ing brilliant!!
The album reached number one in 21 countries. Worldwide, it was the 6th best-selling album of 2020 with 1.37 million copies sold.
At the 2021 ARIA Music Awards, the album was nominated for Best Rock Album and the band were nominated for Best Group. For the upcoming 64th Grammy Awards, the album was nominated for Best Rock Album, and "Shot In The Dark" was nominated for Best Rock Performance and Best Music Video.

It is the shortest studio album ever released by the band; at approximately 35 minutes, it is two minutes shorter than their previous shortest album, "Flick Of The Switch" (1983). "Rock Or Bust" also was the band's first album without founding member and rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young, who had retired from the band in 2014 due to health concerns, although he co-wrote every track on the album. Bass guitarist Cliff Williams has also retired since "Rock Or Bust" was released; drummer Phil Rudd was unable to participate in the supporting tour after being sentenced to house arrest; and vocalist Brian Johnson was forced to exit the band after the fifth leg of the album's supporting tour as a result of hearing loss.
Nothing can last forever. For a while in 2014, it looked as though AC/DC’s time might be up. Malcolm Young, who founded the band with brother and fellow guitarist Angus in 1973, was diagnosed with dementia and had retired from the band. It seemed unthinkable but, holed up with producer Brendan O’Brien in a Vancouver Studio, and with Young’s nephew Stevie filling in on rhythm, carry on they did. And how. "Rock Or Bust", the product of AC/DC’s own uncertain times, is a towering retort to any notion that they might be finished. As the name suggests, it’s an album that places its faith at the feet of Rock’N’Roll, both as a restorative force and also as a vaccine against all ills. Nowhere is this more explicitly stated than on the title track, which heaves along on the kind of monolithic riff Angus Young patented sometime around the Stone Age. Phil Rudd’s drums crash, Cliff Williams’ bass throbs and Johnson squeals out a defiant, ends-of-the-earth manifesto: "In Rock’N’Roll we trust / It’s rock or bust"!!
Upon its release, "Rock Or Bust" became the sixth most pre-ordered studio album of 2014 on Amazon UK. In the US, the album sold 172000 copies in its first week of release and debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200.

It is the only studio album to feature drummer Chris Slade, and includes "Thunderstruck" and "Moneytalks," which are among AC/DC's most well-known tracks. Malcolm Young, having completed his rehabilitation for alcoholism, once again played rhythm guitar and co-wrote (with his brother Angus) all the songs on the album.
The album reached #2 on the US Billboard 200 and #4 in the UK, a smash commercial success that returned the band to the popularity of its glory years of the late 1970s and early 1980s. The album has been certified 5x platinum (5 million copies sold) in the US, and was re-released in 2003 as part of the AC/DC Remasters series.

Accept's most notorious album, "Balls To The Wall", was also their biggest commercial success. This is the best-selling album of the band that sold in an amount of about two 2.000.000 copies worldwide and received Gold status in the U.S.
Most fans of Accept perceive this album as the best in the discography of the band. Following hot upon the heels of their creative breakthrough, "Restless And Wild", you'd also be hard-pressed to find a more sexually charged record in any musical genre.
Like its predecessor, "Balls To The Wall" is an essential Heavy Metal album, and any fan worth his salt should own them both. But, for the sake of first-time visitors, "Balls To The Wall" is the slightly more melodic, less gritty of the two. Whichever you chose, you can only win!

In the history of Heavy Metal, not many bands can claim to be able to celebrate their breakthrough twice. Accept managed this four years ago, as, with their reunion record "Blood Of The Nations", returning with a vengeance by charting all over the World and topping critics’s and fan polls in the process. In their home country, Germany, Accept charted at an incredible #4 in the Media Control Charts, making this highest position in the band’s career to date.
Built around the nucleus of band colleagues Wolf Hoffmann (guitars) and Peter Baltes (bass), with new vocalist Mark Tornillo as well as Hermann Frank (guitars) and Stefan Schwarzmann (drums), Accept completed a global march of victory, peaking in a sold out tour and outstanding festival shows.
The successor "Stalingrad" maintained the high level with (yet again) over 100.000 records sold, followed by numerous nominations as “record of the year”, a completely sold out world tour and overwhelming chart entries (#5 in Hungary, #6 in Germany, #8 in Finland, #16 in the UK Rock Charts, #17 in Switzerland and #22 in Norway, to name but a few).
Now "Blind Rage", the latest installment in this amazing return, is ready to write history once more. The band’s creative streak has delivered a thunderstorm of riffs, only one Wolf Hoffmann is able to set aflame. Besides the “red Accept-line”, as the band likes to call it, the only goal was to “remain interesting”. Another factor that has turned into an Accept trademark is the voice of singer Mark Tornillo. The New Jersey born musician has been the man behind the microphone since the Accept reunion took off in 2009. Within the course of the three albums, he has grown into his role as frontmen of these “Teutonic terrors”. Wolf Hoffmann, who likes to call himself a “naturally born perfectionist”, praises his band colleague and states that “his accomplishment is outstanding”.
While Accept like to get newly inspired as far as the creative aspect is concerned, they put the fine-tuning of "Blind Rage" into the most capable hands of producer Andy Sneap (Megadeth, Exodus, Five Finger Death Punch). After the two previous records, "Stalingrad" and "Blood Of The Nations", the decision to work with Sneap again was far more than a “never change a winning team”-situation. The sound couldn’t be better: homogenous and authentic, dynamic yet versatile! And you can hear the musical wrath that gets Accept going and also led to the album title!!

It is the band's first studio recording since 1996's "Predator" and the first album to feature vocalist Mark Tornillo and drummer Stefan Schwarzmann. It is the first album without Udo Dirkschneider on vocals since "Eat the Heat" in 1989. This is also the first album to feature guitarist Herman Frank since "Balls To The Wall" in 1983.
The last time there was a new studio album from Accept was in 1996, and Heavy Metal was quite possibly at an all-time low - completely ignored by MTV ("Headbanger's Ball" was off the air), and forget about radio. But the album in question, "Predator", did include longtime members Udo Dirkschneider, guitarist Wolf Hoffman, and bassist Peter Baltes... Fast-forward ten years, and vintage Metal was in a much healthier and happier state, with bands from the '80s experiencing an undeniable resurgence in popularity. So what better time for Accept to dust off their Flying V's and Rock once more? ...Only one catch - Udo declined the reunion this time around. Undeterred, Hoffman and Baltes decided to soldier on, re-enlisting former Accept guitarist Herman Frank (who left the band in 1984), drummer Stefan Schwarzmann and former T.T. Quick singer Mark Tornillo.
The "new look Accept" issued their first studio album in 14 years in 2010 and musically, the band has created an album that certainly measures up well to their early- and mid-'80s glory days! Vocally, hearing anyone besides Udo in Accept will take some time to get used to - especially for long-time fans - but hang in there, and you'll discover that Tornillo is certainly a worthy replacement. "Tough and Heavy" is a straight-to-the-point description of such tunes as the ass-kicking album-opener "Beat the Bastards", as well as "Teutonic Terror" and the heavy duty title track.
"Blood Of The Nations" debuted at number four on the German albums chart, making it Accept's first highest chart position since "Russian Roulette" (1986), and their second highest chart position (their 2014 album "Blind Rage" would debut at number one). In 2010, The Dinosaur Rock Guitar forum honored "Blood Of The Nations" with a Dino award for 'Album of the Year'. The album was voted the "#1 Comeback Album" in a 2013 VH1 poll. Also, in 2013 Metal Shock Finland declared it "The Best Shocking Comeback Album".
Producer Andy Sneap (known for working with the heaviest of Heavy Metal bands) successfully brings Accept sonically back to the Metallic roar of their glory days throughout "Blood Of The Nations", resulting in an impressive return of Germany's second best-known Heavy Metal export of all time!!

"Death Row" is a dark, primal album that finds Accept mostly abandoning their classic sound for this experiment in sheer aggression. If you thought Udo sounded angry on the last album, he's absolutely furious on some of these songs. This album was produced by drummer Stefan Kaufmann, who actually had to leave towards the end of the sessions due to health problems, and Stefan Schwarzmann then handled drum duties. Stefan Kaufmann was still the official drummer for Accept, but drums on "Bad Habits Die Hard" and "Prejudice" are by Stefan Schwarzmann according to the liner notes.
While the band may have felt they were breaking new ground here for themselves, it was the same ground, so many other Metal bands had already covered. It seemed that too many great 80s Heavy Metal bands found themselves in the position of copying their contemporaries instead of building upon the unique elements they already possessed. In Accept's case, Wolf Hoffman had greatly toned down his Neoclassical influences in the new riffs he's crafted here. As a result, the songs wound up sounding fairly generic and try to succeed simply by being "heavier than thou". Is the well-intended, but somewhat flat follow-up to the marginally successful Accept comeback release, "Objection Overruled". Accept wisely attempted to make a more consistently heavy recording and practically eliminated the mellower dynamics that limited their previous offering. While opting for a more singularly heavy approach was a good decision, the choice of drummer Stefan Kaufmann to produce the record left things sounding a little weak when compared to "Objection Overruled" (produced by the legendary Dieter Dierks). Perhaps the band wasn't afforded the budget necessary to finish anything more than just a competent recording, but that's what the band, and especially their fans, deserve.
This steely aggression persists through most of the songs and renders the dynamics fairly flat. The last three songs almost sound like they're bonus tracks because they're most in the spirit of the old Accept. These include the ballad "Writing On The Wall" and Wolf's guitar instrumental "Pomp And Circumstance". Although these songs aren't anything spectacular, they provide a little fresh air after a long journey through this dark & narrow tunnel.
Despite a much heavier sound, "Death Row" is a typical Accept album, featuring a variety of Heavy Metal songs. The album reached the top 30 charts in countries like Germany and Sweden and managed to reach the top 50 in Japan.
"Death Row" was pressed on vinyl upon its original release, but only in very limited quantities, making this album one of the most sought after Accept albums on vinyl!

With "Metal Heart", Accept attempted to add catchier choruses and melodies to their high-octane guitar riffing in a clear ploy to crack the American market. Not that this move in any way upset the balance of their thus-far smooth-running Metal machine, which had been gaining momentum with every release since the start of the decade. "Metal Heart" was certainly a step toward accessibility, but a cautious one at that. You gotta hand it to Accept, they sure knew how to make an entrance by now, and the apocalyptic title track is about as dramatic as it gets, with guitarist Wolf Hoffman taking the helm on a long, mid-song solo excursion containing equal nods to Beethoven and Edward Van Halen. First single "Midnight Mover" is next, and along with the even more melodic "Screaming for a Love-Bite", it places obvious emphasis on hooks and melodies (and proved to be the toughest to stomach for the band's more hardcore fans). But despite another strange detour into Jazz territory with the bizarre "Teach Us to Survive," Accept still packed amazing power, heaping on their Teutonic background vocals for the ultraheavy "Dogs on Leads" and gleefully pile-driving their way through relentless moshers like "Up to the Limit" and "Wrong Is Right". The brilliantly over-the-top "Too High to Get It Right" finds Dirkschneider screeching like never before, and to cap things off, the band really cooks on "Living for Tonight" - arguably the best track all around. A winning set!
Album was the first album produced by Dieter Dierks himself. The title track contains two classical themes: Tchaikovsky's "Slavonic March" in the intro, and Beethoven's "Fur Elise" in the guitar solo.
“Metal Heart” considered by fans as one of the band's best records.
