AC/DC’s got a new album on the way

Guitar God Angus YoungFor the last few months, we’ve heard you whispering in dark corners of the internet. We’ve heard the hushed tones you’ve used in your favorite watering holes. We’ve heard your back alley mutterings. So, we thought it needed to be said loud and clear – AC/DC’s got a new album on the way.

The boys have been holed up in a Vancouver studio with producer Brendan O’Brien and longtime audio engineer Mike Fraser, cooking up their first collection of new material since the 2000 release of Stiff Upper Lip.

Fans can expect the new album sometime later this year. We know it’s not an easy wait, but you don’t have to sit there twiddling your thumbs.
