Report: AC/DC Plans Big Comeback

September 5, 2008

AC/DC's last two albums, 2000's "Stiff Upper Lip" and 1995's "Ballbreaker", leaned toward the bluesier side of the band, but producer Brendan O'Brien was determined to focus on another aspect of their sound on the band's new CD, "Black Ice". "I was hoping the songs would lend themselves to more of a — 'pop' is the wrong word, but hooky sort of treatment," he tells RollingStone.com. "Like, 'Back in Black' or 'Highway to Hell' and even 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap'. I was trying to just make people remember, 'This is the same band. I have missed this band. I love this band. Where have they been?'"
