AC Lightning Bolt DC

[Reverend MacManus]

Three chords, root note basslines, cornerstone of rock. AC/DC are the quintessential rock band. Packed with catchy riffs, memorable choruses and rock steady bass lines locked in with the drums, they deliver song after song with great energy. You just can't help yourself but enjoy them. Not to mention they've got a history with two incredible frontmen, Bon Scott and Brian Johnson. Throw down some thunder and tell us why you like AC/DC.

Speaking as an Australian, and I am gonna get pissed on for this,
I HATE ACDC
They have a few top notch songs sure, but its all the same, over and over again.
They've even said so, There song recipe is like a cake, flour eggs, and sometimes some sprinkles.

That's why I mentioned the three chords bit. But it's precisely that formula that works for them. Plus it makes people that enjoy timeless rock happy. It's a familiar sound and style, no niche tricks or bulls$$t. Just straight guitar, great lyrics and catchy vox. Reminds me of punk in a way.

I won't piss on you for liking them. My drummer doesn't like them either. Everyone has an opinion. One of the few times I get upset musically, or two, rather, is when someone argues Black Sabbath didn't necessarily start metal, or someone tries to say that unless you slap and pop like Les Claypool all the time, you're not a good bassist. Ugh. I hate that kinda s$$t.

They were my favorite band back in junior high! I still love them, but not as obsessively. xd

Hm...Alice In Chains was My favorite in JH but AC/DC was a definite on my list i have nearly all of their albums on vinyl but Black ICE was crap  

[Reverend MacManus]

Back in Black I think is probably the single most quintessential rock album of all time. Speaking in terms of straight up rock. I mean, I love the greats like Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Tom Petty and the such. But modern or now classical rock? I think AC/DC has that one in a bag.

I personally really loved Black Ice. Anything Goes is one of my favorite songs. It's fun to stomp around to. 3nodding
