Highway to Hell

Who doesn’t love this band?

Classique du rock aux tubes qui traversent les décennies et se laisse réécouter avec plaisir. Malheureusement symptôme persistant : elle est pas un peu longue cette chanson ? Ah non, c'est vrai, c'est tout l'album... Je retiens surtout que Touch too much et son intro sont toujours aussi efficaces !

Good album. My personal favorite is High Voltage but this is solid. Love Bon Scott's voice. Favorite Tracks: Girls Got Rhythm & If You Want Blood (You've Got It)

3/10Heavy metal. Not for me. Although Highway to Hell a classic

Bang your head to iconic rock n' roll

What an uninteresting, boring, waste of time. The songs on this album sound like 1) a knock off of the song highway to hell, 2) a car commercial, and/or 3) a diary excerpt of a very horny gremlin. The average guitar solos are NOT enough to redeem this album. Not a good listen. 1/5

Highway To Hell // Shot Down In Flames //

Yeah, einfach nur geil und nie wirklich alt. Noch mit Bon Scot...

eh i get it but nah

Not nearly as good as Back in Black.

Not a popular opinion, but I just never liked their music. Like most people, I've heard many of their songs throughout my life, and I still find it extremely repetitive. (How many times can you repeat the song title during a chorus ?) I honestly think some people enjoy it simply because it's presented as a classic...

"Highway to Hell" by AC/DC is a quintessential hard rock album that solidified the band's status as rock icons. Released in 1979, it features some of AC/DC's most memorable tracks, including the title track "Highway to Hell," "Girls Got Rhythm," and "Touch Too Much." The album is characterized by its raw energy, driving rhythms, and gritty vocals of lead singer Bon Scott. The production, helmed by Robert John "Mutt" Lange, is tight and powerful, perfectly capturing the band's signature sound. While "Highway to Hell" is often overshadowed by the tragic death of Bon Scott shortly after its release, the album remains a testament to AC/DC's enduring legacy in the world of rock music. It's a must-listen for fans of classic rock and hard-hitting anthems.

Good stuff, but mostly all sounds the same. That's not awful, but it is unfortunate that the main song that stands out ("Night Prowler") is... well, basically what the title sounds like. Yeeeeek.

"Touch too much" is my favourite

One album of average length is just how much of AC/DC I can take before I get bored. And this one is just a smash

А здесь вообще нужны какие то комментарии? это БАЗА хард рока, лучший альбом ацдц, и в принципе настоящая классика. 5 не поставил просто потому что признаю что группа местами страдает от самоповторов, хоть конкретно на этом альбоме это менее всего заметно. А так это тот самый альбом который можно включить в любой ситуации и ты не ошибешься

Very nostalgic for me because it was one of the albums my dad put on my first iPod.

HELL of a good album. 4/5

Love the bridge in "Walk All Over You". Played "Love Hungry Man" a few times more than I expected.

Maximum rock n roll. If you don’t feel anything when you listen to this album, you’re Amish.

Basically what I expect from them. Bon era still my favorite. 3.5/5

Ugh. So samey. Do not like, this one is even worse than Back In Black. I was almost tempted to skip listening to this but forced myself. Listens: 1 Fave Track: None Rating: 1

Du five stars bien mérité. Tout se ressemble mais tout est bien : "I'm sick to death of people saying we've made 11 albums that sound exactly the same. In fact, we've made 12 albums that sound exactly the same." Angus Young. Mais quand même : Highway to hell Girls got rythm Walk all over you Touch too much Beating around the bush If you want blood Night prowler.. Comment veux-tu mettre autre chose que 5

This was a great album when I was 14

AC/DC is so fun to listen to.

Hervorragendes Album. Ordentlicher Rock auf die Ohren. Abwechslungsreich und voll.

If you are into that genre it is very good.Personally not my cup of tea but my brother in law loves it.

If someone wants a recommendation for a first AC/DC album to try, this would be a great place to start. Everything that makes the band so special is represented on this album. But candidly HTH has some samey tracks among the greats.

Now this is an album you need or may I say must hear before you die . From the opening guitar riffs to the loud spacious drumming and instrumentation to the singer spacy vocals , the album caught my attention from start to finish albeit a few tracks in the middle run.

I like “Highway to Hell” and I enjoy a couple of the other songs. But mostly this falls into the category of music that is ultra masculine that I can engage with for a couple of tracks and then become increasingly tired with. I don’t think it’s garbage but the aggressiveness drives me away. 2.5/5

I always forget how much I enjoy AC/DC. Not as great as Back in Black, but this album presents the best of AC/DC from the 70s era which had some blues rock and arena rock as well as the 80s era which went more into metal and hard rock. This was also the first AC/DC album produced by “Mutt” Lange, more famous for his work with (and marriage to) Shania Twain. Mutt was bigger on arena rock in the 70s-80s before diversifying his production sound in the 90s.

Rick Astley (yes, *that* Rick Astley) says if you want to learn rock 'n roll drums, put on an AC/DC album and play along until you get it right. He's not wrong. This is about as straight-ahead rock and it gets. AC/DC's original singer went out on top. The puerile innuendo, the childish lyrics, and just mindless fun of the anthem rock that AC/DC exemplifies is all on display. Though, unless you're into it, the criticism that hearing one track means you heard them all is more-or-less true. Perhaps the predictability is a comfort? For me it means that, while listening while I work, I don't always notice when one song starts and another ends. Motivation when doing the yard work? Sure. As long as you aren't the type who actually listens to the lyrics. This isn't "high art", but it was never meant to be.

I’d heard Highway to Hell before and the entire album is more of the same. Quite enjoyed but nothing surprising

My favourite Acca Dacca.

Bon Scott's final, and best, album before his death. One of the first CDs I ever got! Listened to this a thousand times when I was 12. 5/5

another classic! Strong album, not my favourite ACDC but it holds up!

My favorite AC/DC album. I wore this cassette out as a teenager. Bon Scott at the top of his game. There is no weak spot on this album.

Breakthrough? No, just simple blues scales and attitude from drum kit to vocals.

It's AC/DC, it's exactly what you'd expect from them. Driving blues based rock. Bonn Scott belts out the lyrics as only he could. It's loud It's raw. The title track is obviously the biggest hit off the album, but the rest of it is high energy rock. Classic

Great album

Classic example of just fun, no frills party rock

Solid AC/DC sound throughout and a fun album. I was surprised there were so few hits on it but it had all their identity.

Gym rocked, classic guitar, just not exciting or special to me

This is a classic. Agnus Young is a genius with how he comes up with these wonderfully crafted guitar riffs. Its only limitations is how repetitive each song sounds, but I ain't mad at it. Their music was expertly designed to be played on your car stereo as loud as possible, with your windows rolled down. “Night Prowler” is a standout deep cut favorite.

Another solid rock album.

Coger un álbum cualquiera de ellos y es bueno. Este es buenísimo. 5/5.

very 70s! 3.5

Best of the Bon Scott era.

Solid, classic, rock album.

Never care to hear these guys ever again

Pretty good from start to finish, nothing really bad or skippable. On one hand there is a cohesive spurs though out the album but on the other hand it an all be boiled down into the single’ “Highway to Hell.” That song is top tier and everything else just fails to reach it.

база алкоальбом: лонг айленд с абсентом

it was a good album, i think the songs were repetitive but still good. It has nice guitar riffs. 3.5/5

Highway is a classic hard rock track. I've done covers of it with a couple of my earlier bands. Tracks are a bit hit or miss for me personally. Album comes across as a collection of individual tracks instead of building a cohesive whole. That's not necessarily bad, but makes for an up and down listening experience when not skipping some of the weaker tracks. For better or worse, Bon Scott's vocals are unique and instantly identifiable even if they aren't always as easily understood. Walk All Over You is a highlight, probably the best track. Shit Down In Flames comes a close second. Girls Got Rhythm and Touch Too Much are definite low points. Overall, it's a fun album.

Fantastic riffs. Bon Scott was such a good singer. Fairly one-note standard Rock, but man is it a good note. Standout Songs: Highway to Hell Girls Got Rhythm You Want Blood? Night Prowler

Repetitive rhythms, but these slightly annoying, screaming and demanding vocals make it interesting for the inclined listener. And Higway to Hell is still a catchy tune that people like to rock out to at parties!

Hummmmm. Ouvi inteiro sem ficar completamente incomodado!

Provavelmente nunca mais vou colocar esse álbum pra tocar, mas foi uma ótima experiência ouvir ele enquanto eu destruía meu amigo no Bozó. Balancei a cabeça o tempo todo!

In the Bon Scott vs. Brian Johnson competition, I've long been firmly on Team Scott. Brian Johnson's a solid vocalist, but Bon Scott had that edge of menace and humor to him that I never get from Johnson. And he's at the peak of his powers here. Thing is, this album was actually much better front to back then I remembered. Aside from "Love Hungry Man" (which Angus Young himself hates) -- it's just straight fire from cover to cover. Of course, if Scott doesn't drink himself to death, there's no Back in Black, which is a slightly better overall album. But still, can't deny greatness.

Great hard rock album. Could lose Night Prowler without missing anything. very horny double entendre lyrics throughout which is quaint in a day/age of typically explicit lyrics.

Basicamente es el track 1 y dspues no hay mucha variación, entiendo que para la epoca es todo una locura pero la verdad me copo mucho cuando empezo ya para la mitad lo quería sacar. El 3 me hizo acordar a Aladelta de Divididos, seguro inspiró muchas bandas argentinas porque escuche riffs que me trajeron a Ratones y a otras bien de rock barrial. La tapa me gusta demasiado, muchísima actitud como todo el disco. Al final el mid tempo ayudó muchísimo me encanche y hasta me quede tocando la guitarra.

It was okay

Highway to Hell was the only song on the album that I’d heard before and it is such a strong opener that I expected the album to peak too soon. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find the rest of the tracks are all just as good, if not even better, and I’ve gained some new favourites in Touch Too Much and Beating Around the Bush

It’s good stuff tbf. Almost dropped it another star because of repetitiveness, but thought that would be harsh. I reckon it helps that I watched School of Rock this week. Simpsons: Yes

Quality. Easy 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Perfect start to an album, straight in there, like a centerback smashing into an opposition forward in the first minute,just to let him know he's there. Great song Walk all overs intro could have been shorter. Really liked shot down in flames and get it hot along with highway to hell There might have been some guitar solos that went on for a little bit too long in some songs. But I suppose that comes with the territory of a rock album. Over all a pleasant listening experience, I will maybe check out some of their other albums aswell

Highway to Hell was a great opener. Night Prowler at the end I enjoyed but enriching else was pretty forgettable. It’s not bad, it’s just not for me

Actually surprised me by being okay.

While I've heard the hits over the year and they are great (at the right time and place). The rest of the album was pretty forgettable for me.

Not as good as TNT. Not bad though

Great album but it's one of those bands that the local rock station plays constantly. It's good but it's so overplayed that I don't care to hear it anymore.

every song sounds the same, and this is not a criticism.

Straight and honest Hardrock.

Musikalisch sehr konstant gehalten - jede Nummer im gleichen Stil. Gutes Album!

AC/DC. I like both the Bon Scott and the Brian Johnson years. Separate chapters and slightly different. Out of all of the Bon Scott albums, Dirty Deeds has got to be the best. Highway to Hell only has one "hit" on it but I think these are all just as good as the title track: Walk All Over You, Beating Around the Bush, Love Hungry Man, Night Prowler

It’s cool, pretty legendary butt rock. Transports me to my Midwestern small town beer tent. That being said, it all kinda sounds the same and I don’t know that I’d ever choose to play this again.

Not bad. I don’t go out of my way to listen to AC/DC but I respect them.

AC/DC é uma das bandas mais medíocres de todos os tempos, as únicas partes que salvam esse álbum são os solos, de resto, é todo normal pra ruim

Exactly what to expect from AC/DC. Good album with a lot of great songs, but ultimately it’s just a lot of the same thing over and over.

Classic AC/DC. I dig it.

Sometimes fun, always dumb.

Classic for a reason.

Good, but like all AC/DC kind of sounds the same to me

puedo decir muchas cosas de acdc, pero no dejarán de ser una banda muy iconic (lamentablemente). igual como álbum, así como todas las bandas de hardrock setenteras, es muy monótono. tienen hits pero ni el más boomer diehard fan te podrá nombrar más de un track de este disco que no sea el mismo Highway to Hell

No soy free thinker

Well, yesterday I had Britney Spears (and hated that I loved it), so this is a welcome change of pace. This is an easy album to love. Except... WAIT A MINUTE - IS THIS THE SAME AS …BABY ONE MORE TIME?!?! Hear me out - it opens with the hit. The one that you remember. The one that was on the radio. The one that the album is named after. The one that runs 42 minutes. The one where the songs were written over and over by a committee until they were perfect. The ones where you just zone out into the vibe. Both these albums were the first release by them to break the Billboard Top 100. Also (hard to verify), but it seems like it was also the first album that each vocalists employed a vocal coach for the album. To further the conspiracy, AC/DC came out first with 9 tracks. ...Baby One More Time came out afterwards, with 11 tracks... 9/11. All f*ckery aside, I enjoyed this one a bit more. But I'm really realizing that it's because it's the one I'm programmed to like more. I can't really say there is anything other than an aesthetic difference in the two. And, it's really hard for me to admit, worse yet saying out loud. AC/DC is one of those legacy bands that released a large catalog of music, and really nailed a lot of the hits. This album is no different. It is all unmistakably AC/DC. Added to library.

It's exactly what you expect. No surprises. Good but not great. Favorite song: walk all over you.

Wow album! It's a blast. The drive, the vocals, just fly together. It's got goosebumps all over it. Young's guitar and unique sound works wonders. The arrangements are not very complex and tricky. But it adds even more charm and density. Two guitars scattered through the channels. Everything is just super. Separate highlight to the vocals and dynamics. Where have I been before?

Few bands have had such a successful two-hit punch on lead vocals as AC/DC with Bon Scott and Brian Johnson. Releasing Highway to Hell as Scott's last record and then following up with Back in Black is nothing short of insane. Scott's vocals definitely are the highlights on Highway, with the catchy but repetitive riffs from Young brothers not doing a lot for me. Standout tracks: title track, 'If You Want Blood (You've Got It)', and 'Night Prowler'.

Sure, as with all AC/DC releases it gets a bit repetitive at times, but there’s no doubt that Highway To Hell ranks among the top of their records. The title track is the obvious highlight of the entire first side. It’s Side B that really gets this album moving and makes sure it sticks the landing every time - hard not to when you’re closing on “Night Prowler”.

this album sounded exactly like i thought it would

Un fragmento de Love Hungry Man podría ser la base de un tema de INXS El disco tiene varios matices y se nota a la banda en uno de sus mejores momentos. No sabía que era el último álbum con Bon Scott y que solo un año después llega Back in Black.

A lot of this album followed the same formula but if it isn't broke, don't fix it. AC/DC has a great sound mixing their more intense instruments with the Vocals of Scott. Highway To Hell is a great opening song and the rest of the album keeps up the same energy and rock. At 40 minutes the album doesn't drag on and each song is different enough to keep the listener engaged and rocking out.

Loud, unapologetic, and distinctly them. AC/DC comes through with a solid rock album that sets itself apart from the rest, and for me, still holds up today. While not something I'll be playing all the time I think it's good not great.

Raucous, loud, rocky, and pretty much fun - great soundtrack for a strenuous bike ride.

As long as I've been a fan of ACDC, I've never listened to this album in its entirety. Very glad I fixed that...total rocker. Everything is great on it. Insanely good riffs, grooves, vocals, etc. It's got it all. Even the last two songs that are slower are still in-your-face and bad ass as hell. Excellent album. Favorite tracks: all of them!

Fantastic album

Great release! Had never heard Touch Too Much.

Great for house cleaning!

Not terrible. Kind of relemtless. Bluesier than I expected in some of the non-radio songs.

Not really my kind of music but it’s fun. Better than Back in Black

Dorky as hell, not cool at all

So glad to listen to this one all the way through!

It is Highway to Hell by AC/DC, what more is there to say?

Rock'n'Roll 🤘

The very definition of all killer, no filler - this album set the template for metal through the 80s. Absolutely blistering all the way through, with the only downside is that some of the lyrics haven’t aged particularly well, especially Night Prowler. Highway to Hell also feels bitter sweet, knowing the way that singer Bon Scott was to die less than a year after this was released. Still a classic though

Absolute classic

Although I listen to a good load of heavy music and music with saturation, I've never been a huge fan of hard rock and/or heavy metal (especially NWOBHM and the likes), mostly because I can't keep up, it's too high power for me. I enjoy a song once in a while, but a whole record is hard to swallow for me. It exhausts me. So yeah, this is 5 stars hard rock, it's full of absolute classic and it's hard not to have feet taping in unison with the music, but it's too much. I'd rather listen to some good ol'punk: it's high energy all the same but in most cases they have the decency to keep under 30 min (hell, under 20 min even)

I listened to this album, and I still think that AC/DC is somewhat overrated. Yes, it's rock 'n' roll. Yes, it's hard rock. But neither this nor any of the following albums were innovative to the genre.

Fine, if you don't listen to the lyrics.

Didn't listen to this one...because I spent so much time listening to this album growing up. Incredible rock album. Not a stinker in the bunch. One of the last best albums from AC/DC.

Haven’t listened to the whole thing yet but man it’s AC/DC. And I’m half way through. So safe to say it’s a 5. 9/10 thank you very much.

Love this album.

Never realized how few of their songs I’d heard besides the big hits. But then again they all kinda sounded the same. Solid, consistent, dumb rock songs.

Pears!!!

Raunchy. Classic. The riffs kill. The band sounds lean and mean. Love the call and response vocals throughout. Bonn Scott was all of rock and roll debauchery rolled into one skinny MF and this album brings the years the band spent honing their songwriting and performing to a sharp point.

yeah every song sounds the same, and apart from the title track, none of them are classics (it's also not really my bag), but damn it sounds amazing. So simple and pure. it's raw and clean at the same time. No wonder Mutt Lange is so celebrated. It was fun reading the wiki article about the creation of this one.

Woo hoo RockNRoll I can get behind.

A classic. Have never listened to whole album until now.

Bit much for me.

Standout: "Highway to Hell," Lyrics/Vocals- 4/5 Instrumentals- 4/5 Vibes- 4/5 This was a fun album, it really made me wish I was having a cookout. Very strong "dad vibes." This album was truly great, I genuinely forgot to get some standout tracks besides "Highway to Hell," which is a great song on its own but as the opener to this album really stands out and becomes far better.

every song sounds pretty much the same but it's quite fun

All songs basically the same, but all songs sound great so can't complain!

Sweet

Oi Oi Oi

A classic.

Ich has zum abstaube gloset und es het im null komma nüt mini männlich wiederhergstellt (well ich mini männlichkeit au muess bewiese natürliche). Honestly ich han eigentlich nur high way to hell kennt und eigentlich überhaupt nüt vom album sust erwartet aber muess sege es het mehr viel meh gfalle als ich jemals erwartet het. S problem isch eifach AC/DC erinnert mich entweder ah mis studium (wege Strom undso haha lustig oder) oder ah middle aged men (ew they scare me). Aber wenn ich da mal versuech so guet wies nume gaht uszblende denn isches ebe scho ziemlich guet... Das oder ich werd au langsam middle aged (Ahhh!?!) 4.8/5

Starting off miteme klassiker- vlt chli overplayed aber s isch trz es guts lied:) Honestly touch too much isch eif sooo guet! Strong fave. Ich lieb s album cover iwie?? Gives off major cool kids vibes.

hani mit 12i scho no geil gfunde. wird s schlagzüg öpis anders mache als da s ganze album? glaubnö. girls got rhythm. jo sie würklich det de jo. touch too much isch ein vode wenige acdc songs wo so chli chords het. scho cool. sie hend am rock ebe scho gseit wos duregoht de shit isch vo hüt us gseh nöd sehr kreativ aber so mues rock töne ebe. get it hot findi easy geil. weiss nöd wie cool ichs find wenn die ganz nand afoch de refrain johlt. ok bi if you want blood synkopiereds schön. und d gitarre töned seehr geil mit stereo und so. isch ebe nöd so viel distortion. es tönt eig alles immer glich uf jedem sing aber s tönt guet. mer mueses luut lose und denn laufts. in love hungry man spielt de angus e recht geils solo. night prowler isch en SHUFFLE?? ok de isch afoch nume sehr lang s glich riff.

also au wenn ich teilwiis mit ac/dc ufgwachse bin, bin ich jz nöd deeee grösst fan, will für mich leider alles chli ähnlich tönt und als drummer tuts eim mengisch chli weh und es git au nur es maximum vo powerchords iwie ABER highway isch indiskutabel 1 bangger und bis jz (bin öppe ide hälfti) hend mich doch die hie und daa ufschimmernde funke vo blues positiv überrascht bis jz hani au walk all over you recht cool gfunde beating around the bush isch für mich jz au vode pace her chli spannender gsi if you want blood ebe schono en banger wnl uuh und night prowler isch jz öppis wo ich mier eig hüfiger wünsche würd aber en nice closing track jaa ich wirds album jz nod ständig lose aber ich glaub me chan guet das album lose und eifach e gueti ziit haa

Fun, but overrated.

I can see why this album is on the list. Decent rock music and talented musicians but overall it’s kinda boring. I listened about half way through

Album Nr. 26 AC/DC ist einfach Kult. Gutes Album mit wenigen Schwächen.

Awesome!

1. highuuay to hell - 3 2. girlz got rythym - 2 3. uualk all over you - 1 4. touch too much - 1 5. beating around the buzh - 1 6. zhot douun in flamez - 1 7. get it hot - 0 8. if you uuant blood - 1 9. love hungry man - 0 10. night prouuler - 1.5

Pretty classic fun rock album. Good riffs, fun lyrics. 4/5!

Great Rock, makes you wanna scream along, then you realize you don't have the voice for it

Pretty, pretty good! I feel like it deserves a 5 based on the very opening of highway to hell (so iconic) but i'm gonna give it a 3 because it doesn't really change vibe at all through the whole disk. Still a mega fan though!

4.7 every song on this album is worthy of your attention. Great band exceptional album.

3.7

Good and consistent, but can only listen to so much.

This was great. Good to hear some AC/DC that isn't the hits.

Always a good pump up

Waande me direct op de zondagmiddag in de Keunefeest-tent met de party-rock opener Highway To Hell, wat niet eens verkeerd beviel. Daarna direct een vurige riff met Girls Got Rhythm, waarna ik bijna zoals Tom Arfman bij Chelsea Dagger op tafel stond te hossen. Ik dacht dat dit de eerste grote verrassing ging worden, mocht het niet zo zijn dat al hun trucjes bij de eerste twee tracks al tentoongesteld werden. De rest van het album was een aaneenrijging van schunnige sex-obsessies en ordinaire objectivation, nummers die het vast goed doen op een rally van Trump. Een 6 voor de energie. 6/10 Highlight: Girls Got Rhythm

AC/DC is zoveel meer dan Highway to Hell... ...nou niet dus. Ook al is Highway To Hell een legendarisch nummer met een bak energie en heerlijke riffs, alle andere nummers daarna hebben elementen uit HtH. Met Shot Down in Flames als toppunt, dat is gewoon bijna dezelfde song. 10 nummers lang hetzelfde doen. Simpele riffs en Bon Scott die alleen maar hetzelfde zingt, geen variatie in tekst of manier van zingen. Wel voor het eerst dat AC/DC me een beetje deed denken aan the Who, wss doordat de zang van Scott wat lijkt op die van Daltrey. Anyway... Highlights: Highway to Hell Walk All Over You (Who-vibes)

Every song is the same but who cares, this album is a hell of a lot of fun. 3.4

3.8 Like a frosted Canadian beer at Boston Pizza. Sure, there is more sophisticated stuff out there but you know what your getting and its always good.

Good fun rock and roll. What stops me giving 5* is it all sounds a little samey when listening all the way through. But enjoyable

Despite falling between two AC/DC albums I love, I somehow don't like this as much. None of the songs are one's I go to when thinking about the band. It's just decent.

Must have for Hard Rock Fans. Go to the highway to hell!

Great album first to last track

3/5. AC/DC found a winning formula and stuck with it. I always love the joke about Angus Young telling reporters they were the only band ever to make 5 records that sounded exactly the same and still win an award. This album was just okay in my eyes(ears)

This was my first ever AC/DC album. It was “just alright”. On to the next one.

I pressed play. I headbanged. I played air guitar. I sang nasally. I played more air guitar. I duckwalked. I took off my shirt. I tried to play real guitar. I failed. I duckwalked even more. I drank a pint. I headbanged harder. I drank another pint. I went dizzy. I headbanged until my mouth was open making that "buruburu" sound. I fell. I rocked

I'm on a highway to hell, and this album will take me there (in a good way). 5/5

Good album to put on for a bit of fun. Maybe it's just me, but by today's standards this just sounds "quaint". I think such is the fate of many classics. 3/5 -- "I'll bang my head to this, but it's just short of something I'd 'want' to listen to on the regular"

I gave Back in Black an easy 5/5 a while back in this list but I feel like I know Highway to Hell a little bit better than that, and I'm very tempted to go 5/5 again because it's just full of absolute quality no-skip tracks. Back in Black has four all-timers in Hells Bells, Shoot to Thrill, Back in Black and You Shook Me All Night Long, with a good supporting cast, while Highway To Hell might only have the title track as an all-timer but the rest of the album is probably higher in terms of overall consistency. Stuff like Shot Down In Flames and Get It Hot aren't among their best-known songs but have been some of my favourites for years. If I took it in isolation I'd give it 5/5 so I probably will, I've listened to it for ages, but Back In Black has the lasting headline prominence so I'm second guessing myself :D what a band anyway :bowdown: they put out those two albums in consecutive years :bowdown: and I enjoyed Brian Johnson as much as Bon Scott.

This isn't as good as their previous, I think. First half of the album is very much hair dad stadium rock, second half fades quite a bit, doesn't sustain the energy that you need to carry an album like this. 3/5 (4 for the first four tracks, low 3 if not a 2 for most of the rest).

Classic Rock album. Solid from start to finish.

It does what it says on the box, it's AC/DC, it rocks, I honestly dont know what to say that hasn't he said so Ill just leave it at that. Favorite song: Walk all over You

Rock and Roll the way Satan intended! An all time favorite of mine, reminds me of 8th grade.

Brian Johnson's last album and it's an absolute banger.

Fine

Highway to hell is a great album. Feels like most of the other AC/DC Albums, with a few great songs, some really good songs and some songs that just aren’t as memorable. But they certainly are rocking! And if you are in the mood, it’s hard to beat AC/DC!

Incredible way to start an album. One of the classics for good reason

rock and roll 🤘🫨

Great album and very nostalgic for me. Have recently got on vinyl.

Sounds like AC/DC.

I'm biased. You either love or hate the best band in all the land at two chord riffs. Memories of being in the back seat of a 76 Cutlass with this album as the soundtrack. Electrifying guitars from the Youngs and the best and last album of the Bon Scott era. Listening to Night Prowler made me do bad things too!!🤣🤘😈🔥🔥

Pinnacle of AC/DC greatness. This album rocks hard but keeps their blues foundation. Mutt Lange rarely misses, the mix is impeccable, and the band brings it with their raw unrefined sound that is often lost in recording. Take away the in your face sound and some of the lyrics are beautifully penned (others are clearly nothing more than trying to get laid).

Classic.

these songs rip

Legendarisch!

A wonderful mix of all the right nostalgia and banging tunes.

It was fun, cool to hear the rest of the album.

Acca Dacca will always be top notch Australian rock 🤘

3+

Even in the context of its era its still boring

Great album.

A classic

Not my taste. But of course legendary guitar riffs

Bad ass way to kick off the day. Only knew Highway to Hell. Enjoyed the others.

meh, didn't aged well into the present.

Fantastic! Especially on a snow day

I had always heard the “all AC/DC” songs sound the same thing but after two of their albums in one week, it’s even worse than I thought.

Great classic but after a couple songs, I couldn't really listen to more of it within thinking I was listening to a classic rock radio station.

Downloaded 3 songs to my playlist.

Yep, that was AC/DC.

Between 3/4. I'm in a decent mood today. 4. Not as many of the classics as you'd expect.

They really nail the riffs and solos. It's a lot of fun, but a lot of repetition. While the riffs are good, they really run them into the ground. Long songs, lots of repeats. It could be so much more than it is. I personally love the vocal stylings though, and their overall aesthetic is great. Fav tracks: Highway to Hell, Touch Too Much

- Great classic rock sound - Highway to Hell is an iconic song but the rest of the album sort of blends together - Still bangers tho

- fantastic rock, iconic voice - love is a big theme despite the screaming lyrical style

Pewnie 4.5, ale dawno nic dobrego tu nie było

Big energy, fun and feisty. I'm not really a rocker these days, but this one gives me some nostalgia.

An absolute banger!

Was nice to listen to some AC/DC. Reminds me of hanging around my dad while he did stuff in the garage.

Bon Scott lived quite a life, RIP.

One of greatest albums of all time. Rock and roll all the way down

Decent rock album.

3.5 I started this at basically the same time as my best friend and husband and this is the first album that any two of us have gotten. I thought it was good and appreciate the context it was released in, it’s just not my jam.

Good album with some good songs, but this band is too iconic to age well if that makes sense. Still some good ones but not rotation stuff. 3

2 great songs and 1 good one. The rest were pretty generic sex or fighting songs which was kind of boring.

Epic album, but it feels like listening to the same song for 45 mins. Which is nice if you're into it.

Thoughts before listening: I never really got into AC/DC, but their songs have been mainstays throughout my life heard on the radio, at restaurants, and at sport events. I obviously know the title track to this album, but I don't know what else is on here. Probably a couple more classic hits and lots of songs with catchy riffs and plenty of double entendres in the lyrics. It's AC/DC so I know this will be dumb but a really fun listen. Review: Well the only song I recognize is the title track, but I might as well know them all since this is unmistakably an AC/DC album. Since this is the last album with Bon Scott many people would say this is actually the final real AC/DC album. They would certainly polish their sound to insane radio and MTV success with the next one Back in Black. I really enjoyed listening to this album. My favorite songs were the title track, "Beating Around the Bush", "Shot Down in Flames", and "If You Want Blood". Really though I could have put any of these songs on the playlist. AC/DC have an unmistakable sound and they do it very well on this album. This is 4-stars.

I liked the last song a lot. Also I felt like I was watching School of Rock.

Good vibes, no complaints.

Aaah. I’m 15 again and watching all the cool kids go to the cool parties…

This rocks hard. Very catchy and I can see why AC/DC is as popular as they are.

Sweet

not bad

Not my vibe but good music for what it is

Lots of high energy, though the second half seems slightly more subdued.

AC/DC is often overlooked by me. I forget how varied their work is.

Unvarnished 4/4 high-energy heavy metal. AC/DC is fairly criticized for not having much variety in their sound but there are a lot of great guitar licks and some clever lyrics. Away from the excellent title track, Girls Got Rhythm, Touch Too Much and If You Want Blood are solid songs. Not usually a big fan of metal bands but these guys are fun and this is close to as good as it gets.

Kind of boring… maybe it’s because more modern music has borrowed from and have been influenced by them.

Love this album

Highway to Hell is my first? Is this some kind of message? Bwhahahaha...it is of course a classic

Obviously, I know who AC/DC is. For me personally, night prowler is the strongest track on the album, and it’s not close. Of course, my favorite AC/DC songs are the slower moving ones like this, ride on, rock and roll ain’t noise pollution, the jack, ETC. I didn’t dislike any tracks on the record, but I come away saying to myself, “yep, that’s an AC/DC record alright!”

Still working on my rating system. The hits are bangers and the filler tracks are all decent. No bad songs. I guess that’s a 4. Blistering guitar solos. Metal before there was metal. Pretty cool.

This music rocks, from the opening riff it’s just consistent heavy rock and roll. I don’t often listen to a full AC/DC album, usually fine with the hits, not too many notable ‘deep cuts’ here. I do like more of the heavy bluesy tracks like Night Prowler. This set the stage for so much of the 80s metal genre. It may be Bon Scott’s best performance and a shame he didn’t get to enjoy the huge worldwide success on the back of this work.

AC/DC just gets me hype man

cool album with some cool songs that I didn't knew

Meh - beyond the title track I didn’t really care about any of the songs. They all sounded the same, very one note. I will say that if I had heard this when I was in 6th grade I would have been OBSESSED with AC/DC.

Good solid classic rock

Crazy that bon Scott died so soon after this. Didn’t know how many actual bon Scott songs I knew growing up.

I mean Highway to Hell is a fun song but I can't even call this an album, it's literally just one single 41 minute long song. This entire album is a deja vu trip 2/5

The biggest asset of AC/DC is Angus Young’s uncanny ability to create an infinite number of incredibly catchy riffs. A close second is Bon Scott’s rough and eternally energized voice. I love the backing vocals provided by Malcolm and Cliff’s funky bass lines and even Phil’s drums, simple as they are. They get the job done, and do it well. Every one of these band members is playing together perfectly. They aren’t doing anything very experimental or out there and it leaves them room to sync together. When Angus goes off on his solos, they feel cemented in the song and not just like and add on. I love this album and always have and always will. I don’t believe the writing is quite on par with some of their contemporaries and I think they’re really only comfortable on one speed. I’d have liked to see them turn down their pace a little more often like the did on “Ride On” off “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap” and even “Night Prowler” off this project. That added bit of range would have really propelled their image as one of more than just a horny rock band playing fast music. I enjoy Highway to Hell. 4/5

Already a favorite in some ways! I feel like if i'd listen to this when it first came out (y'know, if I were the right age), I would probably have liked this more. It's not that I don't enjoy it, but this feels like the kind of thing I'd have latched onto in my early 20s or late teens instead of at 40.

Love it!

i liked Back in Black a lot so i was excited going into this but it just didn’t hit the same. not bad at all just nothing stood out. obviously Highway to Hell (the song) is a classic but i’ve never loved it either

✔️

Classic! Awesome!

One of my fav AC/DC albums!

It was fine but didn’t fit my vibe the day I listened to it during work.

It’s an ACDC album for sure

The songs really rock, and it is clearly a great album, but it still doesn't fully connect with me. I think I would want to hear AC/DC live, as sometimes the potency of these radio hits is reduced when you hear them as background music your whole life.

4.5 really

Wenn man auf den klassischen AC/DC Sound steht dann bestimmt DAS Album aber sonst .. naja. Wenig Abwechslung

Many rock highlights and hits, very fun.

This music is not to my taste.

I like their sound and their energy, and this singer's voice is so unique, and I said it when I got their other album, his voice is giving major Muppet vibes. But yeah, rock on!

Average score for a generic band. It's the same song but at various tempos. Not offensive, but it's like stock photos of rock songs.

Not their best one - OK!

aiii

A classic record, carried mostly by its opening track. Can’t really go wrong with an album with Bon Scott and his energy. [0106/1001]

Dad rock. Highway To Hell is track 1, maybe 2 other songs really enjoyed but struggled to get through the whole album. Good to hear more AC/DC songs however it reminds me of growing up and blaring stadium anthems coming from my little brothers bedroom. Can appreciate the ground work this album put in for future hard rock albums.

It’s a Highway to Hell!!

Title track is the standout. The album sounds like a series of alternate tracks and very same-y. I didn't gain much by hearing the title track in the album context.

Bon's swan song-and so damn good. Few bands rock like AC/DC-many have copied, very few succeed. This is simply a great rock album.

I don't like AC/DC but I like the energy of this album. It was obviously a lot of fun to make and they play their songs like they mean it. Yes the album is really samey but this was before they would become copycats of themselves so we can forgive them. It's just good dumb fun.

The title song and some fillers. Seriously, there's nothing great to this album but the energy it bursts.

Pure rock songs like everything you've heard before, but performed with such energy that the album remains a pleasure to listen to. Nothing important or meaningful, but a great dose of fun and let go.

Simple songs I listen to from time to time. Get a good feeling then.

Classic obvs

Довольно однообразный, но драйвовый звук, хотя хитовые треки у группы в целом совсем друг на друга не похожи, но альбом однообразен----->на треке beating around the bush передумал)) звучит все также однообразно драйвово, но свежо и круто

AC/DC is always a party and this record is no different - I somehow can’t resist a good romp by this band - and maybe this is not their best outing - but I still enjoyed the brainless fun it exudes.

A very engaging rock ‘n’ roll album. I really liked the lead vocals, his voice was very unique, and of nostalgic of that era. The opening song was of course, the best one on the album, but the rest were not half bad. I am excited to keep listening.

This album is so fucking rad, simple as that. Highway to Hell is the most perfect statement of dedication to ROCK that there ever was or has been. It’s the informal codification of the principal rock ‘n’ roll ideals that anyone who chooses to dedicate their life to rock stardom must uphold. Iconic album cover, iconic music. This may not be the best AC/DC has ever been, but nobody listens to them for flawless technical execution or groundbreaking lyricism. We listen to them for vicarious badass thrills and to feel fucking unstoppable! We listen to them to get hyped up, to play our ridiculous air guitars with abandon. We listen to them for fun and they always deliver it to us. Fuck yeah. Hail Satan, listen to AC/DC!!!

Classic rock and roll album. Great from start to finish

The album would've been way better but also basically the same if it was only highway to hell repeated throughout

The title track "Highway to Hell" is a great classic hard rock track; the rest of the album is also good, but not great, although I really liked "Beating Around the Bush".

Not much of an AC/DC fan myself but hard to argue this isn’t a 5 star album.

Awesome album. RIP Bon Scott.

I'd listen to those lead vocals sing anything. Normally not something I'd love, but the vocals sold me. I don't think I'd wanna check out more of AC/DC if their lyrics are all the same, though.

Classic rock. 2/5

All time classic. But to me not the best acdc album, it is too slickly produced. Has a commercial American sound that to me doesn't suit them. Still great songs though

Quintessential "get on your harley and roll" kind of music. Very easy cruising music, if not repetitive. Unfortunately, it peaks with its opening track "Highway to Hell" and never quite hits the same high, though there are a few other solid stand outs (If you want blood; Shot down in Flames). Vibe: 4/5 Benefitted greatly by a great opening which sets the tone. The rest of the album is an easy listen, just a bit repetitive at times. Mixing: 5/5 They maximized each instrument and vocals Pacing: 2/5 If you are gonna have an absolute banger of an opener, you better follow it up with some heat, unfortunately that fire slowly but surely dies out through the rest of the run time. Creativity: 2.5/5 My biggest issue with AC/DC in general. Outside of a few landmark tracks, so much of the discography feels like rinse/repeat. I understand wanting to have a signature sound, but you can achieve a signature sound while varying up sound structure, changing up instrumentation a touch. At the same time, i cant really blame AC/DC, they knew what they were and leaned into it.

Ret ok, svedigt, det er jo kendt. Men når jeg lytter det hele tror jeg måske jeg synes Bon Jovi og Van Halen er bedre. Det lyder meget ligesom Highway to Hell det hele, som jo dog er svedig. Kommer ikke helt op at ringe, men fed nok.

Outside of the the title track not AC/DC's best effort. RIP to Bon Scott

Fucking rock. Hard, rock.

Other than Highway to Hell, nothing ever stands out to me. After GnR just two albums ago, I've had my fill of this style of hard rock. *Heard before.

Good hard rock album, compact, tight, and easy to get into it. I'd give it a 4 if the songs weren't so samey and it wouldn't drag a bit towards the end. It's a 3.5 from me.

Nah fuck this shit lmao it's so boring to me

great to hear the songs on this album that weren't big hits / singles

Night prowler, highway to hell, touch too much,

AC/DC does one trick, really well - making music for cruising down the open road with reckless abandon. A highway to hell, for instance.

An all-time favorite and classic album! Not a bad song on here!

Legendary.

Rock solid album. Not my favourite from AC/DC, but it has some awesome tracks. While I don't think this one is perfect front-to-back, it still scores big points for hosting iconic songs. Great listen overall. Fave tracks: Highway to Hell, Beating Around the Bush, If You Want Blood (You've Got It)

Honestly a bit of a snoozefest for me - by the 6th album I think AC/DC ran out of ideas for original compositions and just began recycling their sound. Not only that but the lyrical content feels like it's written by a horny middle-schooler. Title track ain't bad though. Fav Tracks: Highway to Hell

Every high school and college boy's heavy metal dream, Highway to Hell is a classic... if you like that sort of thing. It's puerile, aggressive, and misogynist (seriously, Love Hungry Man?). Despite that, Highway to Hell and, especially, the lead off song of the same name, is pure party music. If you are uncomfortable with music that no longer would be considered politically correct, then why the hell are you listening to AC/DC at all? If you can see it for what it is - pure, loud, obnoxious party music - and not be bothered by it then you'll love this album.

Listened Before? Yes I listened to this album quite a bit back in high school. I think of AC/DC records this and Back in Black are my favorites. This one opens with classic driving jam "Highway to Hell" and keeps the accelerator down through the Girls Got Rhythm. This is a quintessential 70s rock album that is largely held together by vocals from Bon Scott and fretwork from Angus Young. Highlights for me are the title track, Shot Down in Flames, and Girls Got Rhythm. Outside of Shot Down in Flames, the second half drags a bit in my opinion and takes away from the experience. This is a softer 3 / 5 for me. Added to Library? Yes Songs Added to Playlists: - Highway to Hell (Driving)

Solid album, reminds me of movies with Adam Sandler and Jack Black growing up.

Never been a huge AC/DC guy. Not much changed for me here.

If you love high energy power guitar (which I do) then this is the album for you. I felt like I was doing dishes at triple speed while headbanging to this. I knew the majority of the songs going into this so it was cool to listen to the rest of the album. It did not disappoint on the shredding level. Love Hungry Man was such a change of pace, but I really liked it especially the little bass lick that would come in every so often. I have never gotten super into ACDC even though I know a huge amount of their songs, but I am really hoping another album comes up on this list because this was awesome to listen to a full album by them

I really don’t know much AC/DC but Highway to Hell is so iconic and instantly reminds me of Little Nicky. Great tune. The rest of this album is consistent as hell. Usually not a huge fan of a lot of these arena type bands but this album rocked. Also huge appreciation for Bon Scott’s voice. Never realized how great it is besides the usual AC/DC hits.

Very listenable and great to work to.

Great album. Hard at its best

Such a good album rock on

An easy-to-listen album, and although the songs can be somewhat repetitive, it is still enjoyable.

So, so very good.

A lot of them all sound the same. Very specific sound. Very simple and repetitive melody. The song highway to hell is classic.

Very good rock album

Love this album, definition of classic rock Top tracks: Highway to Hell, Girls Got Rhythm, Beating Around the Bush

Sähköistä menomusiikkia! Sopisi oikein hyvin lenkille, tarpeeksi sähinää. Ei normaalisti kuulu omalle kuuntelulistalle, mutta ei lainkaan huono.

Brainless hard rock music but I'm here for it. Stand-out: If You Want Blood (You've Got It)

Classic rock classic

Unique sound, but kinda all blends together. Would listen again
