It's Official: AC/DC Are Back!

PWR UP.

More AC/DC AC/DC

It's official - AC/DC are back. 

After cryptic posters were spotted around Sydney, the iconic rock outfit confirmed the news this week, with the line-up of Angus Young and Stevie Young, as well as returning members, Brian Johnson, Phil Rudd and Cliff Williams.

Johnson returns to the line-up after leaving in 2016 due to severe hearing problems, stepping back in for replacement frontman and Guns N' Roses singer, Axl Rose. However, Johnson has been linked to a return for some time, with US radio station V100 even suggesting last year that the 72-year-old was back with the band as they geared up for a world tour

Meanwhile, Rudd's return comes after he was kicked out of the band in 2015 after admitting to charges of threatening to kill and drug possession.

Williams is also back in the group after officially retiring at the conclusion of Sydney-founded group's Rock Or Bust tour in 2016.

To coincide with the return, AC/DC have also shared a teaser of new track, Shot In The Dark.

Check out the teaser below.
