Highway to Hell

Banger

Super fun album

Classic album. Even if you don't like the genre, you'll still have something to like here. Highlight Tracks: 1, 2, 6, 10

I've historically not got on with AC/DC and now this is my second album by them within a week, and you know what? It didn't suck! Maybe it's like acquiring the taste of olives or other pungent flavors, and you need to be exposed on a certain number of unique occasions, I dunno. Anyway, that was a fun enough listen, and I didn't find the vocals too grating. Fave track - "Highway to Hell", by a mile. Which reinforces my olive theory, as it's been featured in so many soundtracks...

Crunchy classic screamy rock and roll. Read that Angus regretted Get it Hot, and I can see why. Fun. Not something I listen to on the reg, but definitely fun.

4.5

Listened Before (in entirety)? N Pros: Nice, peppy, rocking listen. Not too long. This must have been wild to hear in the 70s. It's HEAVY rock (probably not quite metal by today's standards). Highlights: Girl's got Rythmn, Beating around the Bush has a GREAT main riff. Night Prowler was a great surprise! Guitars were spot-on (I'm a sucker for blues licks), Bonn's voice doesn't really lend itself to blues, but the riffs and solos more than make up for it. It's easy to see why AC/DC are considered an influence by so many later bands. This was a good intro to their pre-Brian Johnson days. Cons: It's a shame that I started this album by skipping track 1. Highway to Hell is probably one of the greatest hard rock songs of all time.... unless you listen to hard rock or classic rock radio. It's so overplayed in my world that I could go without ever hearing it again. As expected, the lyrics of the album are overtly sexual. It's fine, just not what I choose usually. Added to Library (Y/N/partial)? P Added: Girl's Got Rhythm, Beating Around the Bush, Night Prowler

AC/DC may be a 3 chord band but they know how to make the blood rush and necks sore. Wall to wall pub rock with classic guitar solos and riffs along with some really great lyrics from Bon Scott (Touch Too Much for example). Admittedly it isn't the most deep, sophisticated or intelligent album by a mile, but it's honest good fun to rock out with. Highway to Hell is a classic Aussie album and the majority of songs on it are great (not so much Get It Hot or Love Hungry Man).

I've known this album since it came out. Classic. Not their best, but so good. 4/5.

Like most AC/DC albums you’ve got 50% filler and 50% absolute masterpiece of rock history. Highway to Hell is probably their signature song but there are more iconic albums. Fave tracks: “Highway to Hell” “If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It)” “Girls Got Rhythm”

Pretty fantastic, just not as fantastic as Back in Black.

This is a classic rock album

I really love this album: it's a blast of energy that really reminds me of my adolescence - interestingly enough, back then I thought that I was going to remember Blink-182 and Green Day as the soundtrack of my adolescence, and now I think of AC/DC and Led Zeppelin. This unconstrained energy and impact that AC/DC can channel through this record, as well as the very explicit sex theme, are really enjoyable and a ton of fun. But, because there was going to be a "but", the problem with this album is that it gets a bit repetitive. Still, there are many great tracks such as "Touch too much" and "Night prowler" that are worth checking out.

Very AC/DC. Not too compelling but still enjoyable.

Most of the songs sound basically the same

Belter

Сдадко

Lots of songs about wanting to have sex with women. Good flow throughout. Classic rock.

Great tunes 4.4

Good album. Hadn’t heard most of these songs before.

YEAH! TURN IT UP FUCKIN' LOUD! I murdered a toddler listening to this.

Thought I’d know a few more on it, but only a couple. very driven album, would probably grow on me with more listens. Highly expected to whale after Scott’s death, the band have gone on well.

Fantastic classic hard rock with all the usual fixins. Powerful guitar riffs, high energy vocals, and banging drums abound. If you know one AC/DC song, it's "Highway to Hell", and for very good reason. My primary complaint with the album is that it runs just a little bit too long and the songs start to all sound the same. It's a minor criticism and if I could give it four and a half stars, I would.

Not my cup of tea, but great nonetheless!

Solid.

Classic. Good, solid rock.

Solid, the hits are hits and the album tracks are similar but less memorable.

I don't know what rating to give here because I only listened to highway to hell and then the next song was too sleazy. So I'm treating it as a single

Enjoyable. Dumb, but enjoyable.

Classic Rock. Energetic

Obrigado por colocar rock na cabeça.

Another solid one.

Great finale for Bon Scott

This album's energy is high AF and fun. If "You Want Blood" is super underrated. 8/10.

Great stuff

Big choons

Ok I'm not a fan, but the first two songs are great! The next song is great too, but at 5:10 way too long. These boys should know any song longer than 3:30 is just too long. But I'm going to have to concede 4 stars to these hard-drinking, hard-rocking nut boys. What saves it for me is the guitar histrionics rarely descend to wankery and the riffs are impressively HARD and accessible. Closer to sex pistols than to Van Halen... I had no idea. 4 🌟

Rating: 8/10 Best songs: Highway to hell, Walk over you, Touch too much

Amazing, power rock. Catchy, great vocals.

I’ve cooled a bit on AC/DC over the years but this album rocks. Power vocals, timeless lyrics and killer instrumentation. This was one of the first albums I owned and it’s held up well.

Jag har tidigare avfärdat AC/DC som ett tråkigt gubbrockband. Men jag inser att när jag lyssnar på skivan att jag har ganska kul. Texterna är ganska korkade, jag är rätt säker på att det är samma trumkomp i alla låtar, men på något sätt känner jag att jag vill ta en öl och skråla med. Trevlig skrevrock.

Great album, classic solid rock

Not as good as earlier Bon Scott albums but still wildly fun

4.5

slaps but they guy on the cover looks scary. he also looks like harry styles kinda

nice

Expected a rocker. Got a rocker

Of course, Highway to Hell is the final album AC/DC recorded with Bon Scott, the lead singer who provided the group with a fair share of its signature sleaze... AC/DC has never sounded so enormous, and they've never had such great songs, and they had never delivered an album as singularly bone-crunching or classic as this until now.

Good classic rock!

Great album…. Loved this one!!

Like the Foo Fighters but old.

Some classic tracks - brilliant album but as is always the way with AC/DC and me - I find it a little repetitive and one dimensional which just stops it hitting 5 stars - such a fun album tho ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

With a band like AC/DC, which is really basic rock 'n roll, you can't dun them for not being more sophisticated. That wouldn't be fair. You have to evaluate them on how well they execute their concept. You need riffs which intersect with the vocals in ways that provide forward momentum to the tunes. AC/DC does this very well. Since you're going for basic, you have to make your point and get out--no long tunes, no extended solos. Check. You have to keep the proceedings high energy--check. The production has to be dirty enough to provide grit, but clean enough to put the tunes across--check. And it helps if you come up with choruses that beg to be sung along with. The title cut obviously qualifies. But even on the deeper album cuts, the band never lets up on energy or professionalism. AC/DC may not be breaking any new ground here, but they are very, very good at what they do. (It actually surprised me a bit that this band was famous for partying and substance abuse, considering how precise they are in the studio.)But I would be lying if I neglected to say I was bored halfway through. Okay, the hell with it. I'm going to break my own rule and subtract a point for lack of ambition. If it helps for fans of AC/DC, this is a perfectly performed and recorded album. If I was evaluating it on that basis alone, Highway To Hell would be an easy 5/5.

4

Classic rock

It's AC/DC. You know what it sounds like. BT: Highway To Hell, Walk All Over You, If You Want Blood (You've Got It)

Classic banger *4

I mean, it's AC/DC. It's hard to complain about this album!

No hubiese empezado por aquí, pero ahí vamos. Mente abierta y a ver donde nos lleva este proyecto. Disco sorprendente y chute de energía

Redefining heavy metal with both style and substance

4/5 It's a great album for what it proposes to do, I really like it. Special attention to the three first tracks (Highway to Hell; Girls Got Rhythm and Walk All Over you) and to the last one (Night Prowler) as well. The middle songs are somewhat forgotten because of the power of the first ones but it doesn't make them bad, just not as attractive I guess. It was a good experience and I'll definitely listen to it again.

+++

Great guitar album, enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Fairly homogeneous but lots of fun. Really rocks.

no problem listening to this one :) wish I had a beer though

I liked it. I obviously recognized a few of the songs, but the ones I didn't know were really good as well.

Classic

AC/DC en su punto. Highway es Highway no y no hay más qué decir. Girl's Got Rhythm mantiene la tónica y Walk All Over You disminuye el tempo para retomarlo al final. Touch y Beating continúan entregando poder y después llega un pequeño bache con Shot Down in Flames y Get It Hot. Afortunadamente dura poco, 5 minutos entre las dos para llegar a la maravillosa If You Want Blood que aún no entiendo como no fue single (en lugar de Girl's Got Rhythym). Love Hungry Man vuelve a bajar el ritmo para preparar la salida con la bluseada Night Prowler para cerrar un gran, gran disco. Las letras son claras y puntuales, no hay tiempo para muchas interpretaciones. La voz de Bon resuena por todo el disco y los solos de Young quedan perfecto en cada canción. Pura energía. Songs: Highway To Hell, If You Want Blood, Touch Too Much, Night Prowler.

Solid and fun romp full of bops T to B.

¡¡Un gran album de 'Hard Rock'!! Hay varias cosas que me sorprendieron, ahora que leí la reseña del álbum en Wikipedia: - Enterarme que AC/DC es un grupo Australiano! - Que este álbum es todavía de los 70's. Este tipo de música la asocio más a los 80's- principios de los 90's - Toda la historia alrededor del disco: la muerte del vocalista y los asesinatos seriales Mis canciones favoritas del disco fueron Highway to Hell (duh) y Love Hungry Man

Discazo todavía con la voz de Bon Scott, abre con la canción homónima y luego te mete un gancho derecho con girls got Rhythm y de ahí se va para arriba y terminar con un blues bien estructurado

Long live pub rock

Excellently crafted album--not as heavy as I maybe expected, but clean and interesting

Guter Sound, gute Energie, klingt leider immer gleich.

AC/DC is always fun. Makes me want to go on a roadtrip.

Another classic album, not my favorite one, buts it's great

Minimalistic loud dumb fun, background vocals were great, rhythm guitar perfect. It’s an AC/DC record. Touch To Much deep cut gem.

Rockin!

Honestly better than expected, especially cause I hate AC/DC. Deserves a 4 from me.

Solid rock album, but middle songs start to blend into each other.

noice

Brilliant.

Very good rock album loved the drum sound and vocal energy satanic references are quite funny these days

Excelente. Clássico

Very good

Not my favorite of theirs, but it still rocks. Best track: Highway to Hell

this is an albm that youre basically not supposed to think about so i wont. just kinda bangs. maybe a suprising opinion but makes sense if u think abt it ac/dc is really just the 70s version of shitty 2010s dance pop music which i also love. title track was featured in megamind (2010) so u kno its good 9/10

Sans surprise

Pretty good

Of all the basic genres, hard rock is the basic-est

It’s Highway IN Hell if you’re driving through Saugus

Brings me back to listening to rock radio stations in the 80s and 90s when AC/DC was on constant play. I like the hit songs, but the deeper tracks all start to sound the same. They had a very specific formula for sure.

Hard Rock is one of my least favorite genres, usually I just can’t stand it. This I also did not love but need to admit that this catched me somehow mid album and I did really like night prowler

Yeah, proper banger this one. Takes me back to school days. Sounds a bit dated but it wouldn’t put me off listening again.

The lack of a variety is a strength and a curse.

The bangers are always good. The rest of the album was meh

Never been a big fan of AC/DC and this album didn't change my opinion much. A lot of the same, but there are a couple of big hitters here that are fun to hear in their original context. Night Prowler really surprised me. Refreshingly different from typical AC/DC despite grim subject matter.

Pretty solid

6 keepers in 10 (60%) 1 banger (10%) I’m not getting into the whole “all AC/DC songs sound the same” but I’m not denying it. Math says 3 or 4 stars, heart says 3 stars.

not sure what to say. I know and like AC/DC

there is this consistent style of music throughout this album Wich isn't really bad on it's own except if you don't like the sound if you don't like the first song you're not going to enjoy the rest I enjoyed the guitar drums and bass just not the vocals

love acdc but a little repetitive

Good music, not really my style

A showcase on how to use the 4/4 drum BackBeat. Lyrical depth and musical nuance of wheels on the bus, but what it does do it does it well. Round and round

Maybe its the mood im in today - looks its a very fun song. But its just that a 40 min song!

A classic.

Exactly what I expected an AC/DC album to sound like. Solid rock songs. I won't be returning to this one, but I didn't skip any songs as I was listening. I can see why people like it.

not a huge fan of this sort of genre but I can accept that it's an okay album

Good beat, great guitar. Vocals always the same. Brings back memories. Lyrics can be a bit juvenile

ripetitivo ma rimane peak

Escuchando

Tracks 1-4 are rock n roll gold. Mutt Lange anthems, then it becomes a little too repetitive and predictable. Some good stuff in here.

Not as good as BiB.

Only highway to hell that was something I'd listen to again, the rest were interesting but now sound rather dated.

I felt like I went through the entire album without noticing. Not that the songs are all the same but they all are very similar in style, no doubt. It made me good company but didn't strike me any strong feelings.

Pretty fun to listen to at the start, becomes very draining after hearing the same riffs over and over again

Classic hair rock.

Highway to Hell (the song) absolutely slaps, but the rest of the songs felt like fun but worse versions of it. I am amazed how much I can still enjoy AC/DC'S songs with the vocals of a screeching cat, so that counts for something.

Better than most hard rock. 3.5 stars

it does all sound the same, and it's decent, but... meh

Hadn't listened to this before other than the title track; not really surprised to find the rest of the album is pretty much 10 more "Highway to Hell"s, lol. Fine, but I'll probably just go with the hits if I want to listen to them.

It was pretty good. Very standard rock album some tracks stood out to me some blended in with the rest . I’m not a rock fan but it was an okay listen nothing to special though for me.

i mean a classic, probably a comfort album for someone: everything sounds thr same, still well loved though

6.5

ac/dc are one of the bands that got me into rock, but now that im listening to this album back to back, i think it's just suitable for when im in a mood for some good ol noise, but now that my taste has developed to more than just rock, i think listening to such a loud album is a little hard for me, but still a great one.

DNF - 2.8/5?? - classic for a reason - Rest of the album so far isn’t bad im just not thrilled

Great album. Pure rock and roll!

6,5. Um bom álbum, tem músicas gostosas de escutar, mas poucas que eu realmente escolhi salvar pra minha playlist de rock. Instrumentais e vibes legais, provavelmente foi marcante pra época.

It upsets me when people say we have 11 albums that all sound the same. We have 12 albums that all sound the same.” - Angus Young This is one of those albums. And yes, it sounds like AC/DC

This record is not bad. AC/DC really took the heavy out of heavy metal. It’s big noisy somewhat juvenile arena rock. The guitar playing is good. I think I might actually like it with different vocals. As it is, it’s just okay.

The career-defining album from the world's greatest bar band. AC/DC will never make any claims to being a thinking man's band, but Bon Scott's edition of the group had a sly wit to them that was completely lost by the time they did a couple of albums with Brian Johnson. Highway to Hell has easily some of their best material, even beyond the mega-hit and immortal rock radio staple that is the title track. Even the lesser singles like "Girl's Got Rhythm" have this incredibly jaunty and fun quality to them. The deeper cuts though, don't really do anything for me. One thing is for sure though: Brian Johnson's boneheaded edition of the band would never write songs with as many layers as "Night Prowler," a song that famously incited controversy when a murder suspect was quoted saying it was his favourite song by the band. That amazing closer aside, the blues power chords do wear thin on some of the lesser played songs, and Scott's voice is keening and can certainly get grating after a while, but you just have to think of it as a small intimate club performance but expanded to arena size scales. The album is also an incredibly succinct 41 minutes, and not one of the songs overstays its welcome by any stretch of the imagination. This is among the best hard rock of its era, and if AC/DC's name wasn't fully associated with the lewd old man Brian Johnson era, this would be respected a whole lot more for its immense wit and timeless rock and roll appeal. Key Tracks (besides the title:) Girls' Got Rhythm, Touch too Much, Shot Down in Flames, Night Prowler

mittelmäßig 🙄

A fun listen but nothing of substance

So I think this one would have always been kind of an uphill battle for me: I'm not huge on hard rock on the best of days, and from what I've heard from AC/DC, they're not exactly one of my favorites of the genre. And yeah, after a full listen this is good, but I still don't really see anything special about it, even if I do think the first and last tracks are both genuinely excellent. So yeah, good but not exactly what I'd call great and not really something I think I'll go back to very much.

I like the rebel vibe but the music was too simple

Takes you back, still good

Banger, men är så trött på AC/DC soundet

Heavy Blues Rock but with pop elements as well. Solos are there, but the songs are short..lyrics..comical

I kinda enjoyed this. Not really sure why though.

Same story with AC/DC, great hits, c grade filler.

7/10

This is where I admit that I started this project once before and abandoned it. The first time I listened to this album all the way through was at the very beginning of that run. I still get the hype, but it's still not really my thing.

Not a huge fan of the genre. A few songs I could get into

3.4/5

For a long time, I wrote off AC/DC as a pretty basic band. Drums and bass are about as straightforward as you can get, and the vocals (whether by Bon Scott or Brian Johnson) aren't anything that really appeals to me. But with a full listen to this album, I finally realized that the Young brothers are pretty damn fine guitarists. Great riffs, strong solos, and general top-notch work. It gets a little repetitive after a while, but they deserve more credit than I've been giving them.

its fine... its just not my thing i think :/ theres nothing wrong w it i just dont really care for the sound

Aside from the title track "Walk all over you" is the only really memorable track. That one is my favourite on there. Singer is annoying at times and too many tracks sound similar, but it is overall pretty good. Better than i had expected.

Classic.

I’m not an AC/DC guy, that was more like me in high school for select songs. A whole album of these guys drones on, but I can’t deny they can rock. Mid 3

3/5 Favorite Song: Night Prowler

Exciting. Classic. Don't like the word 'hell'

the title song makes it, the rest of it is (for me) pretty generic

classic classic

i want to join parties that has this kind of music so bad.

Yeah very rocky that!

(4/7) pretty much what I expected

Yeah really good album, maybe the best AC/DC album?

I ranked this one just under Back in Black. I know the “real” AC/DC fans prefer Bon Scott to Brian Johnson, and I do too. Bon is more mischievous and maniacal than Johnson’s one note leather-lung belting. The band does sound a bit more lowdown here than the mega production of Back in Black. But… After the terrific pair of songs to open the album, I couldn’t find a song that fully enthralled me. “Walk Over You” and “Talk Too Much” were both marred by choruses that sounded like bad 1980s metal as the group chanted in anthemic style. “Night Prowler” showed the band’s limitations as they cannot come up with the lyrics, a riff nor a dramatic arrangement to pull off this ode to “Midnight Rambler.” “Shot Down in Flames” and “If You Want Blood” come close to top notch songs. Both take a bit to get going, but include enough whiplash thrash to offer some head-banging fun. These two, and “The Girl’s Got Rhythm" lend support to the pro-Bon Scott camp as they have the lean fire that the band never recaptured after his death. Only a few other bands can deliver the pure jolt of AC/DC. When they find that innate sense of the pocket, they take you on quite a ride. When they lack that jolt, they cannot tap into other ways to pull songs from mediocrity. Cut by cut this is an uneven record, not a classic.

Good for Dad rock

AC/DC - highway to hell Good fun in a meat n potatoes bluesy pub rock way. Lyrics were mostly about shagging, or not getting shagged. Enjoyed it but won’t be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yeah H2H and BinB are the standouts the rest are average

Pretty good, but I just listened to "Back in Black" a couple days ago and I liked that one better. (Admittedly, that might be just because I listened to it first and this one felt pretty similar to it, but oh well, so be it.) It got four stars, so this one gets three.

pretty good

I have never really listened to AC/DC besides to Back in Black for a short period as a teenager. Thirty years later, I wouldn't expect I could bear such a plain and quintessential rock. Surprisingly enough, I did and actually enjoyed it (although this album is not quite as catchy as Back in Black).

Ok it not that I didn't enjoy this, it's just... So repetitive. It's just highway to hell over and over again. That's a great song, so it can take you pretty far, but .. idk. I got kind of bored.

AC/DC is a killer band to me, with some real bangers to their name. But if it wasn’t for ‘Highway To Hell’, this album wouldn’t have caught an eye. Everything about the production of this album is good though. It sounds great, guitar is on point, and Brian’s singing is unique and great. But the songs sounds very much the same, and you recognize some reoccurring elements and stems in them. And they’re not particularly catchy always, sadly. Not AC/DCs strongest record.

The crunchy guitar sound and great intro of Highway to Hell promises you a great rock album – and for the first song it actually delivers. Highway to Hell is such crazy simple fun. The rest of the album failed to deliver and it quickly turned to generic rock. It’s too bad that the album failed to deliver, I was so hyped after the first track and even more so after giving Back to Black a 5 star revie. This one lands on a 3 star.

Pretty good, the opening track a banger.

3/5. It's a classic for a reason. They made the same album many, many times but they got it the most right on either this or Dirty Deeds. Bon is obviously much more tolerable and fun vocally. When I was about 10 I dropped my walkman into Lake Powell which had my dad's cassette copy of this in it. And thinking back to that, this was a 5/5 when I was 10 years old.

I mean just a little generic, am i right?

I’ve never gone out of my way to listen to AC/DC besides what’s on the radio and movie trailers or whatever. I’m not sure what I expected- maybe a little more variety? This was fine but samey-samey to my ear.

Es bueno solo no es para mi la vd

Clean and mean

Primera canción bien. Luego a partir de ahí todo se hace un barullo y suena todo igual y no se cuando acaba una y empieza la siguiente. Aún con eso puedo entender lo icónico que es estar haciendo esto en los 70.

A solid rocker.

i never quite liked hard rock, generally isn't particularly pleasant for me

Full of bangers, iconic album from a legendary band

Familiarity not making an album good is true here. I liked it because I know it. But I loved the song Nightcrawler

I expected more from this.

Ik weet niet of ik het mag zeggen, maar de stap van Bon Jovi naar dit is eigenlijk niet zo heel groot volgens mij. Toch kan ik dit beter hebben. Zoals ik bij een ander album al noteerde: Ze vallen onder m'n gedoogbeleid. Als ik heel eerlijk ben vind ik ook AC/DC niet super geweldig hoor, dus wat dat betreft ga ik mezelf nu niet te ongeloofwaardig maken. Het album begint met de grootste hit en daarna krijg je nog 9 nummers die grofweg allemaal een beetje hetzelfde zijn. Of ze zijn wel verschillend maar maken individueel niet echt indruk, dat zou ook kunnen. Ik gaf het andere album 4 sterren, ik denk dat ik er nu één meer op zak hou. 3 sterren dus.

I feel bad ass like I should be smoking a cigarette

A rock/metal classic. Some banging riffs, albeit some songs feel a little samey but overall pretty iconic

This album is the embodiment of nostalgia. When I listen to this, I remember the times that me and my friends were riding in my ‘68 Firebird throughout the summer of ‘79 causing havoc wherever we went. I wasn’t even born then, but I definitely feel like I should remember that when listening to this album! Not my cup of tea, but I can appreciate the vibe this album gives me.

It was alright, very repetitive and I'm not a fan of Angus Youngs voice but by god can these guys write a guitar solo.

Hard Rock Favorite Songs: Highway to Hell, Girl’s Got Rhythm Least Favorite Song: Honestly, they all sound the same, so let’s go with…Night Prowler, I guess? While the album sounds so professionally and the lyrics are fine in my opinion, I don’t think that I would want to sit down and listen to the entire album all the way through. While I can handle the band’s same kind of discography in small doses via if I put the songs on shuffle, I will get bored very easily if I ever decide to listen to the full album. This is due to hearing about the fans saying that they use the same three chord progressions at different keys, and while it’s fine that the song structure can sound a bit samey or basic, it’s more so that I don’t want to physically own the album and pop it in a CD or vinyl player. 6/10

An album from my high school days. For me, music you really had to get used to back then. Oh, how rough it was...

If you ever get a job washing dishes in a restaurant, put this album in the tape player and the night will fly by. The chef might even make you something special when the shift is over.

While my appetite for listening to this, go pleasure, is limited, I nonetheless enjoyed the album and appreciate it for what it is: good rock music. Probably good to run to, or similar

This is the first AC/DC album I've listened to start to finish and it's a solid one. I like AC/DC more than I realized based just on the odd random hit I've heard over the years. This album rocks.

I enjoyed listening to this album while driving. I was only familiar with the title track but found I enjoyed a couple of the riffs and beats. I doubt I’d buy this or recommend to a friend though. 3/5.

Well I liked this, I didn’t think I would like any of their stuff😂

Listened to this way too many times as a child to enjoy it now.

Cool album

AC/DC perfected their craft. It may be simple, but there's some really catchy songs on this album. As a rock and metal enthusiast, you'd think I'd like this more but their simplicity has bored me more often than it's entertained me.

whoa, this takes me back.

Pretty good, I think I crap on AC/DC a bit too much because they were never able to make anything new after the death of Bon Scott. This and some of the previous albums are much better than I give them credit for because all of the later albums just sound like discarded demos from the original three projects that brought them their fame, and it made me just tired of the sound in general.

miau podobał mi się bardziej niż back in black

Siis ihan hauska. Ajaessa hittas ja ihan mukavia grooveja ja hyvä meininki kaikinpuolin. Levyn puolivälin jälkeen alko vähän kyllästyttää, miten kaikki biisit on neljää sointua, peruskomppia ja boomerbend-kitarasooloja, mutta ei voi varsinaisesti sanoa, että biisien taso huomattavasti laskis, vähän vaa kyllästyy. Hauska on hyvä sana kuvaamaa tätä levyä, mutta jossain kohtaa kaikki biisit alkaa vaa kuulostaa samalta ja tylsiltä.

I don't really like the contemporaries of AC/DC. Cock rock never really did it for me except for what these guys produced. I hear the music, and I think about those guys who like to talk big but when it comes down to it they're kinda himbos and just big softies and are all shy and silly. I don't know why I think this. It's completely illogical. I like both lead singers of AC/DC. Why are we always comparing them and picking a better one? They can just be different y'all.

Classic, exactly the right length. Ended as I was getting fed up.

Good

AC/DC is a strange band that somehow manages to create at least one really great song per album that becomes an all time classic. And then proceed to spend the rest of their albums creating simple generic rock songs that are so hard to hate and also love they just kind of exist.

It's a solid 3. An enjoyable listen. Probably won't listen again. Nice sounding rhythm guitar, not so into the guitar hero lead. The vocal style isn't my cup of tea.

I wasn’t expecting to like many songs from this album because I’ve always had this idea on how rock music all sounds like noise and super similar. While listening to this I found some songs actually pretty good like walk over you. I could picture some as theme songs if I’m ever running.

I live pretty close to Bon Scott's hometown (who treat him like the second coming of Christ) so I have 0 issue to say that I don’t care for this album whatsoever. Just imagined Charlie Kelly singing these songs and it both enhanced the experience but also made it so I couldn’t take it seriously Solid 5/10

Yeah, ok….This was a bomb plopped on the 80’s. Lots of folks went nuts for these guys, and I was in the correct demographic at the time. Should’ve fallen in line, but I strayed to punk instead. Just couldn’t abide by the mainstream conformers. I’ll agree with others… it all does all sound the same. Can’t deny their impact, but 3 is the best I can do.

Light 3,5

honestly i dont love ac dc anymore i just find a lot of the music grating, especially the popular hits i've grown sick of. this album was mostly tolerable except for the title track though.

The godfathers of 80s rock. Definitely worth its place in the pantheon.

7/10

I like later albums more

The album certainly rocks.

classic just not my style

one good one the rest is just ac/dc

divertido pero es demasiado de lo mismo sin la misma calidad favs "Highway to Hell" y "Touch Too Much" 3.7

Very good however very basic

I'm not the biggest fan of the vocals on this album, but everything else is pretty good. I like the band and would like to listen to more of their music, but this album is not anything amazing in my opinion.

While I can appreciate the culture impact and sound. This one isn't for me. Not a bad listen, but also not a listen I'd add to any of my own playlists.

Fun, but basically the same song x10

There’s a few bangers on this album, but it’s mostly repetitive. Its impressive what they did with three or four chords over and over again.

Highway to Hell is a great opener. Rest of the album is just meh.

3/6

hm

Classic rock. Hard rock. Highway to Hell is an all time rock anthem. The rest of the album wavers between ok and too juvenile to take seriously.

fine but all of the songs are pretty similar. 3 stars for me.

yeah just good

Absolutamente icónico. Fue el álbum que los hizo gigantes. Love Hungry Man y Night Prowler fueron mis favs. Es repetitivo pero funciona, no es para escucharlo todos los días.

certified boomer classic which yet again proved the ability of ac/dc members on making one million songs which all sounds like one song 3/5

Not a huge fan. I liked the other one better. But the picture is amazing!!

Nice to revisit. Still rocks.

Title track is great Rest are kinda the same A lot of high pitched almost screaming

No

Motorväg till helvetet är ju lattjo. Men sen är det inte riktigt min typ av rock. Det är smånajs, men lyfter inte till högre höjder.

The title song is obviously SO overplayed, but it's interesting to hear it in the original context. I just love some good old ROCK AND ROLL!

암 하이~웨이 투 헬~

good album overall, just not my genre

Enjoyed the guitars and rocky-ness of this album. Singing is good too. Highway to Hell is such a classic singalong for me

Nice album, tbh, only Highway to Hell blew my mind.

Bon Scott is clearly a more charismatic and dynamic singer than Brian Johnson, however the music is pretty much the same for both versions of AC/DC.

not bad, but this is not the typical genre I listen to -> it sound all very same to me. "highway to hell" is a classic though

Fine. Classique. Boring :)

A little one-note but generally fun and catchy.

3.5 Acdc album is acdc album

its fine

I really like Girls Got Rhythm and Beating Around the Bush. I never really paid attention to how freaky their lyrics actually are, but they have good riffs.

It's a bit before my time, but, at the risk of getting lynched by long-time AC/DC fans, I don't actually register the difference between Bon Scott and Brian Johnson. This is a good album, but not as good as later albums where AC/DC fully developed as a band. It's just a shame Bon didn't live long enough to be part of that.

A love letter to the kick drum. Straight ahead rock and roll. put this on while you're shirtlessly washing your T-bird.

Ive never been a huge AC/DC fan. I respect their legacy, but I'd never sink into their music.

Good stuff

Great

More like a 3.5. A lot of the songs are great, but it gets a bit repetitive.

It’s basic AC/DC - anthemic rock, guitar riffs to appeal to the crowd, lyrics that don’t get too deep, hooks that are catchy

Malcolm Young had the best right hand in rhythm guitar history. Mutt Lange sure loves him a dry-as-dust rhythm tone though. It's leering, it's louche, it does what it says on the tin.

Obviously it starts with a hammer, truly iconic song, but then I have to admit I got lost in the album, a few songs stood out but in the end it all felt like the same one to me ... Probably cause I can't understand the lyrics with his voice and strong accent, I bet it didn't help. At least it's coherent and the vocals/guitar solos are amazing. Cover : Iconic of course, devilish as rock music is

Booooooooring

I swear this album is some blokes whole personality. Enjoy your tarmac whiskey Not bad though, just not all that 3/5

Good rock n’ roll. This album is not at the top of my list for AC/DC and not one I would seek out.

AC/DC have such a great groove to their playing. I enjoyed the first few tracks but my enjoyment kind of fell off after that and I thought that night prowler was gross. I’m sure there are Led Zep songs that are just as filthy that I probably love.

всем мира, но я люблю разные тональности и пение посерьёзней)

Not quite my fave but will listen again in a few weeks. I don't think I was in the right headspace for this one.

AC/DC doing AC/DC things

Fun

bit of harry innit 6.9/10

"I'm sick to death of talking about how we've released 11 identical albums. In fact, we have released 12 completely identical albums." — said Angus Young. You can't argue with the maestro; all AC/DC music is about killer guitar solos and screeching vocals on one side, and schoolboy lyrics over a very standard rhythm section on the other. So why did this formula only started to work for the band on their sixth album? I don't understand. They say the change of producer helped here — I wouldn't say so; the next album, Back In Black, is much more different from the older albums. Perhaps people were simply in a time in the late '70s when they wanted relaxed yet energizing music. Nevertheless, the monotony hasn't gone away, and AC/DC's studio recordings quickly become boring. Their concerts and live albums are a different story! So if your soul is craving for some energy and fun, it’s better to turn on AC/DC Live – an album that, in its title itself, conveys the band’s clarity and straightforwardness.

Klasika. Ale nebavi ma to...

Im new into rock so i might change my opinion after i get into this genre and understand it fully. But as for now i think for me every track felt the same, everything is up tempo except the last track and i struggle to find any memorable moment out of it except the crazy ass guitar riffs. Those stand out to me the whole project, the way the guitar riffs come in at the end of the 1st track highway to hell and on the track walk all over you (3:30 mark) is really crazy. It's just that I can't separate out other songs of this album from one another because it's kinda monotonous (as of now). Night prowler is another track i find interesting because unlike the other tracks, it has a slow tempo and a good slower vibe. 3 stars cuz i ended up saving two songs out of the album.

Never much of a fan but the impact is undeniable.

C’est pas mal, c’est limite bien. Je comprends qu’ils aient cette réputation en vrai

im a fan i think there was a lot of times i was banging my head. my problem w rock albums are a lot of the time every song sounds the same. i didn't feel that way about this

te levanta el ánimo como nunca

One amazing song followed by an album of generic, same sounding, forgettable rock songs.

Otla vez alos

My mother is indifferent to most music, but she cannot stand AC/DC. “No more of that horrible little screeching man! Turn it off!”

I genuinely cannot imagine the happiness that came in 1979 in a sports car as a 17/18 year old in the summer and you throw this album in and Highway to Hell is first up. Jfc. Wait. Had no idea the original vocalist, Bon Scott, of AC/DC died of alcohol poisoning and the lead vocalist changed after this album. Walk all over you feels a little surfer rock. Fav song so far probably. Will come back to this. A touch to much is my least favorite. Too narrative? And too long. Opens up good but so bored by the end. Repetitive. The underlying music is so good, but lyrically, very boring.

Ohh yeaa rokanroll ooohhhh siiii lml, bueno esa es mi reviw ahr no. Bueno la verdad este álbum fue una sorpresa siii, escuchar los primero temas se sintió como un baldazo de agua… estando yo prendido fuego despues de haber escuchado el álbum anterior. No le tenia fe porq venia de haber perdido toda mi esperanza en música de este estilo y no me consideraba para nada un ejoyer de acdc… pero puede q lo sea un poco mas de lo q pensaba. Obviamente empieza con uno de los temas insignia de ace y disi el famoso duo de rock ahr no sabia nada. Bueno empieza con “carretera al infierno”, tema q da nombre al álbum: “carretera al infierno”. Es un fakin clásico todos lo conocen, la verdad nunca lo había escuchado a detalle y lo primero q pensé en mi primera escucha fue “wow q admirable como son capaces de hacer una intro tan memorable para el álbum en general tan solo con el ritmo de batería mas básico q existe, y un riff icónico” y ahora q lo pienso no me parece nada muy loco pero bueno la intro me parece muy buena ns porq escribi esto. El tema es bueno ta lo admito. Ya con este tema empecé hyped af tipo me la re subio ns. Siguiente tema: “las chicas tienen ritmo”. Bueno este no es de mis favoritos la verdad, no me llegó a la medula, pero es un tema q mantiene el hype y eso lo admiro ahr porq admiraba tanto. Ahora siii, uno q es para mi gusto uno de los bangers de ste álbum “caminar arriba tuyo” ahr q era ese fetiche. Si hablamos de hype, la intro de este tema si q me hypeo y mucho en la primera escucha, me la bajó q sea algo aparte al tema, si la hubiesen conectado mejor me hubiese gustado aun mas y no perdería tanto el efecto de hype en las siguientes escuchas. Eso no quita q el tema me haya gustado bastante, me gusta mucho el coro cuando todos gritan “caminar arriba tuyo!!!!” en el fondo. También me gusto la pequeña outro. Algo q me había olvidado de destacar hasta ahora, es q la voz del cantante siento q me debería resultar insoportable… pero no es asi, me gusta bastante, tiene muchísima personalidad y queda mucho con la música. Bueno sigue “mucho toque” o ns como llamarlo ns. bueno es un poco mas de lo mismo y me pasa maso como el segundo tema, no me termina de fascinar, pero mantiene algo el ritmo asi q ta. aunq igual no voy a negar q le estoy perdiendo un poco hilo ya desde aca, tipo se q si sigue asi me va a empezar a aburrir. “pegándole alrededor al arbusto” que significa eso ns ahr q no se traduce asi. Bueno este tema me gusta mas me parece, siento q no es algo q debería ser de mi gusto, pero loes, un poco. Me gusta ese riff con el q empieza, no se a q me recuerdaaa, capaz a un tema de Extremoduro puede ser pueser. Me gusta mucho en los versos cuando canta como se queda todo callado menos el redo y ta eso. “derribado en llamas” o ns como mierda ya traducir estos títulos ns ni porq lo estoy haciendo. También quizás de los q mas me gusten. Me estoy dando cuenta q no tengo mucho para decir de los temas porq aca entra ese factor de repeticion, pero igual me gustan. Este me gusta la parte cuando dice “hey you angus, shoot me” y el niño angus hace ese solo q me gusta bastante, aparte me gusta mucho cuando pasa eso en los temas q el cantante le da entrada de forma original al guitarrista para hacer su solo. Bueno q puedo decir del resto del álbum, paso lo q me esperaba y q ya venia pasando, q me empezó a aburrir. “hombre ambriento amor” es un poco mas tranquilo de lo q venia siendo todo, pero siento q esta muy al final dentro del álbum, ya a este punto es tarde y me aburri. Es el único tema q me fije en el bajo la verdad, queda tan en segundo plano en los otros temas q te olvidas q está, la verdad q me gusta mucho como suena aca. La verdad siento q este y el ultimo tema deberían haber estado mas en la mitad del álbum, para q se sienta mas dinamico todo. Bueno ns q mas decir, quiero terminar esta review de una vez. Estuve pensando q creo q tuve algún tipo de efecto escuchando este álbum, porq como vine de escuchar puta mierda una peor q otra, ahora q escuche algo q me parecio un poco mejor mi cerebro lo celebro como si fuera una puta obra maestra, cuando no es para tanto. Me pareció el mejor hasta ahora, si, pero pasa igual q con los dos álbumes anteriores, existe muy poca versatilidad y a medida q el álbum avanza se hace cada vez mas complicado seguir enganchado. Supongo q los aisidisis lo hacen bien si, disfrute del sonido de este álbum, pero no me gustan tanto los temas como para escucharlos mas veces. No creo q llegue a un tres, pero me parece q es un 2.5 yendo para arriba, aparte estoy harto de ratear álbumes con dos estrellas asi q le voy a pone tres… pero no llega a tres ok.

I LOVED Back In Black but this didn’t do it for me. Lacks the power, grandeur and catchy hooks, and I prefer Brian Johnson.

I'm not a big fan of AC/DC but this is certainly listenable.

AC/DC is the rock music equivalent of fast food. Sure, you’re not going to get a Michelin Star dinner, but you know what you’re going to get and sometimes you just crave a juicy burger. Quite often, actually. Highway to Hell is that fastfood offering, but it has to be said that the menu is stale. After another generic rock aong about how great sex is, I was about to give this album two stars. The final track, Night Prowler, saved the day. Rest in peace, Bon Scott

3/5

Overall: 6/10 It's a shame that all the sonfs sound so similar cause I love Bon Scott's voice. Angus is also a talented soloist but these riffs and drums are so boring to me. Fav Song: Highway to Hell

I expected to like this more. All in all, not a very strong album past the title track.

im not that big into rcok and roll music, so i just differ to my dad about this kinda stuff, cuz he grew up in the 80s and thus knows way more about this music style then me. and he finds AC/DC pretentious and fake, and as someone who likes pretentious and real alt rock i kinda agree.

pretty good, about what i was expecting. i liked walk all over you, but i am a sucker for choir songs.

Love it for what it is but don't love it for spending time listening to these days.

A very fun album, it’s just sounds like what we think an AC/DC album would sound like.

El padre de kiwi by Harry Styles, album que no habría escuchado jamás si no fuera por este proyecto. Le doy 3.5 estrellas para empezar tranqui y solo pq no es el tipo de música q escucharía todos los días :p

YEEOOOWWWW!! I AM THE MAN WHO ROCKS!!!

For me ,not much here beyond the title song, which is the classic banger. A nice mix of blues and good old hard rock n roll. Other notable cuts include Girls Got Rhythm and Night Prowler but these are meh other than the nasty side of the lyrics. Stood the test of time? Yes because, well, at the end of the day it's AC/DC.

Cool

Όπως με πολλά κλασικά ροκ συγκροτήματα, έτσι και αυτό μου φάνηκε ευχάριστο άκουσμα. Ίσως επηρεάζομαι απο τα ακούσματα του πατέρα μου και μου φαίνονται εύκολα να τα ακούσει κανείς. Beating Around the Bush

Rockin' (and screamin' about sexually assaulting women)

I went in thinking I would like this album, but in the end, I thought it was just okay. Besides the title track, all the songs on the album are so forgettable and go by without you even realizing.

Dumb. Loud. All the songs sound the same. Nothing wrong with that.

Not bad; listened to this on [[2026-03-28]] and [[2026-03-29]] as well.

Rock n’ Roll, baby! Another fun album that is undeniably a classic. I enjoyed this album more than I thought I would, particularly the guitar work, but probably not enough to want to revisit. A bit too redundant.

One big song, and nine songs that also exist, and sound like that one big song... It's a good song though.

Es una paja sin acabar, sabor a poco.

bien rockero, Nigth prowler de lo mejor de acdc que escuche

enjoyed, probably would've enjoyed a lot more in 1979

Gotta respect the energy this album brings. It's absolutely incessant. Heavily indebted to Led Zep but bringing a power they rarely attempted to tap into. I was considering going as high as four, but it did get a bit samey and I slightly lost patience with it. But gotta say - enjoyed it. The image of Jack Black's Angus Young impression danced around for 41mins.

15 year old me loved this & I respect him for that. 17 year old me saw AC/DC play at Monsters of Rock but was already exploring further afield. Now, putting nostalgia aside, I find it a touch too much & could easily find 1001 albums I would sooner listen to.
