AC/DC's Brian Johnson and Angus Young were interviewed on the November 19th edition of The Howard Stern Show. The guys were promoting Rock Or Bust, AC/DC’s first studio album in six years. It will be released by Columbia Records in North America on December 2nd. Audio of their appearance can now be heard below (scroll down).

 

 

AC/DC have released the video for the title track of their new album, Rock Or Bust. The live track was shot in London up-close and in-the-round in front of the band's diehard fans!

Rock Or Bust follows the immensely successful Black Ice album, which debuted at #1 in 31 countries upon its release in 2008 and has gone on to sell nearly 8 million copies worldwide. Rock Or Bust features 11 new tracks and was recorded in spring 2014 at Bryan Adams' Warehouse Studio in Vancouver, BC and finds AC/DC once again working with producer Brendan O’Brien and mixer Mike Fraser.

Rock Or Bust tracklisting:

"Play Ball"
"Sign Of The Times"
"Ain't The Way"
"Rock Or Bust"
"Done Her Good"
"Steal My Meal"
"Watching Games"
"Cardhouse Blues"
"Bulletride"
"Rumble"
"Back In The Zone"

"Play Ball":

Rock Or Bust is the first AC/DC album in the band’s 41 year history without founding member Malcolm Young on the recordings, who is in a home suffering from dementia.

AC/DC will undertake a world tour in support of Rock Or Bust in 2015. Stevie Young, nephew of founding members Angus and Malcolm Young, plays rhythm guitar on Rock Or Bust and will accompany the band on tour. Long-time drummer Phil Rudd was recently ousted from the band and a replacement will be announced soon.
