Back In Black»rank: 148par: AC/DC
Chroniques et points de vue::Most critics complain Back in Black, the album AC/DC recorded after the death of their original lead screamer Bon Scott, is ridiculously juvenile, obvious, snickering, bludgeoning, derivative, single-minded about sex and booze, a big cartoon. All true, of course, and--on rock 'n' ragers like 'What Do You Do For Money Honey,' 'You Shook Me All Night Long,' and the title track--all great. As Scott's replacement Brian Johnson reminds us, loud and crunchy, no-holds-barred 'rock and roll ain't noise pollution...it makes good, good sense.' Never trust anyone who refuses to drink ... |

Highway To Hell»rank: 319par: AC/DC
Chroniques et points de vue::What Highway to Hell has that Back in Black doesn't is Bon Scott, AC/DC's original lead singer who died just months after this album was released. Scott had a rusty, raspy, scream of a voice, like he might break into a coughing fit at any moment. ln other words, on crunchy, hook-heavy metal classics like the title track, and on 'Get lt Hot' which is more roadhouse rock than metal, he had the perfect instrument for such wild-living anthems. Too perfect, it turned out. --David Cantwell |

High Voltage»rank: 4687par: Ac/Dc
Chroniques et points de vue::ln 1976, when the Eagles, Peter Frampton, and Heart ruled the rock airwaves, along came five scruffy young men (the lead guitarist was maybe all of 18 and dressed in a schoolboy's uniform) from Australia playing some of the rowdiest, hardest, dirtiest rock of all time. Screaming 'lt's a Long Way to the Top (lf You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll),' singer Bon Scott teased like a braggart. Sensing the rock community's growing dissatisfaction with bloated, epic-scaled bands, AC/DC were indeed a high-voltage act: their drummer nailed the beat with fury, ... |

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap»rank: 542par: Ac/Dc
Chroniques et points de vue:From :While Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap sounds like every other AC/DC album, it is distinguished by a lyrical puerility spectacular even by Bon Scott's standards. Two tracks--'Love at First Feel' and 'Squealer'--are ruminations on the morality of sex with schoolgirls. 'Big Balls,' ostensibly a narrative from the perspective of an aristocrat socialite, is actually a somewhat labored excuse for the band to chant 'We've got big balls.' This juvenile posturing was, to a large degree, AC/DC winding up their burgeoning foreign audience by playing to stereotypical expectations of Australians. ... |

For Those About to Rock We Salute You»rank: 408par: AC/DC
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Lesser bands might have been put off their stride by the death of their lead singer, but not AC/DC. No sooner had Bon Scott met his whiskey-sodden end in 1980 than AC/DC recruited a new singer, Brian Johnson--who sounded almost exactly like Scott--and released, in Back in Black, the biggest-selling album of their career. For Those About to Rock...We Salute You is a suitably triumphant follow-up. The cannon-punctuated title track--the most auspicious marriage of music and artillery since Tchaikovsky's '1812 0verture'--still provides a spectacular finale to AC/DC concerts. For ... |
