102: AC/DC High Voltage Album Dive

While it’s true AC/DC’s debut may resemble Chuck Berry style Rock ‘N’ Roll, understand that it’s got way more sleaze, way more attitude, and way more…balls! Oh yeah, and way more HEADBANGING!

The “science” proves it: AC/DC IS METAL!!!

Break out your bagpipes and bananas, hang on to your balls and JOIN US as we teleport back to 1975 and immerse ourselves into The First New Album by that (and again, we cannot stress this enough) HEADBANGING, Scotstralian juggernaut from Down Under.

It’s time to get you some HIGH VOLTAGE!!!
