The basic blueprint that AC/DC laid down on their early albums with Bon Scotthard, no-nonsense, riff-driven rocknrollhas sustained them all the way through to their latest album, 2014s Rock Or Bust. Angus and Malcolm held AC/DC together after the death of singer Bon Scott in 1980. And now, so many years later, even without Malcolm around, Angus doesnt look like hes about to give up on the band.
