AC/DC "Power Up" Dean Delray's Let There Be Talk Podcast; Video

AC/DC members Angus Young and Brian Johnson are guests on the new episode of Dean Delray's Let There Be Talk podcast.

Says Delray: "The guys sit down with me for their first ever podcast and talk all things AC/DC. Back In Black, Brian's audition, Angus Young's favorite Gibson SG, the songwriting process and of course their brand new crushing record, Power Up, produced by the great Brendan O'Brian out November 13."

AC/DC will release their new album, Power Up, on November 13 via Columbia Records. Guesting on Spain's RockFM classic rock radio's El Pirata, guitarist Angus Young discussed the album, including the rumours that guitar parts from founding AC/DC rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young, who died in 2017 suffering from dementia, appear on the record.

Angus: "I know a lot of people have been saying, did Malcolm actually play, is it his instrument on the new album? I chose not to do that because I felt Malcolm wouldn't like me trying to splice his guitar work. Malcolm and I wrote a lot of songs together, we always wrote together and each one contributed their ideas. Malcolm had come up with ideas for the choruses, we had some notes. Some parts were already composed and I had to polish them. In other cases, he had left only a small part and I had to pull from memory and complete the next verse. "

Power Up is the long awaited new album from AC/DC, and the band’s 17th studio album. For Power Up, the band reunited with producer Brendan O’Brien who helmed the double-platinum Black Ice in 2008 and the gold Rock Or Bust in 2014. Charged up for the next decade, AC/DC cut twelve new tracks for the album, proudly maintaining their signature sound and all of its powerful hallmarks.

Power Up was announced with the release of the album’s first single, “Shot In The Dark” (listen below), and features the lineup of Angus Young (lead guitar), Brian Johnson (lead vocals), Cliff Williams (bass guitar), Phil Rudd (drums), and Stevie Young (rhythm guitar) firing on all cylinders once again.
