AC/DC locked in their sound with Powerage, an album that perfected the balance between crushing riffs and relentless energy. The band have shared the Powerage Album Explainer video below:

To honour AC/DC’s 50-year reign as the world’s greatest rock and roll band, Columbia Records/Legacy Recordings recently announced that the band’s catalogue will be available as gold coloured vinyl LPs.

According to WECB.fm, you'll also be able to buy the records at an exclusive AC/DC pop-up store, opening in Milan, Italy (Corso di Porta Ticinese, 16) from March 15 - 17.

"In the AC/DC 50 pop-up store, for three days there will be alternating talks with many guests, exhibitions, listening sessions and events dedicated to all fans but also to those who want to learn more about the iconic Australian rock band."

Stay tuned for further details on the AC/DC 50 pop-up store.

Each of the limited edition Gold LPs come with an album-specific 12”x12” print featuring new AC/DC 50 artwork, suitable for framing.

The first nine titles will be released March 15, and are available for pre-order here.
