AC/DCBack in Black

After Bon Scott drank himself into the grave, AC/DC answered grief with the loudest record of their lives. 'Hells Bells' tolls in like a death sentence before Angus Young's riff detonates; the title track rides the most recognizable bassline in rock; 'You Shook Me All Night Long' turns Brian Johnson's banshee howl into pure swagger. One of the best-selling albums ever made, and it earns every copy. Funeral rites that became a victory lap.
