I've always been pretty shitty towards AC/DC, but 'Hells Bells' came on the radio the other day and it was pretty refreshing. I'm not gonna listen to the album or anything, but it was admittedly fun to hear it with fresh ears for the first time in well over a decade. Vocals were still silly, mind.

There isn't a single AC/DC album I'm in love with, but this is most fun AC/DC album.

100% agree with that, though I'd say Back In Black is definitely the best of the Brian Johnson era.

Also it's weird to me that we've all accepted that Brian Johnson just.....has that voice. I know we're all used to it by now because AC/DC has been so ubiquitous for so long but Brian Johnson's voice is so....weird.

Powerage and Let There Be Rock for me please. This one is too polished imo, they were always better the more messy and bluesy they got. Back In Black was a favourite of a 10 year old LedZep, and although it didn't age well for me personally (not talking about the sound/songwriting, just about my experience with it), I still have a special place on the shelf for it.

As a side note, AC/DC too often get disregarded by "serious" music fans. Their music is fun as hell.

That's what made AC/VC by Neil Cicierega hilarious.

100% agreed, it's so bizarre. The most comparable voice I can think of is Axl Rose, but Brian Johnson's voice is even more extreme. Also I'm pretty sure he's been wearing the same hat for going on 40 years now.
