Overview
This is AC/DC’s most pivotal moment of their career. This album changed everything for the band, but was unfortunately the final album to feature the legendary Bon Scott, and I actually feel like it is the last time you will hear AC/DC be the incredible club-rock band they were with their angry high energy before transforming into the stadium giants they are today. Highway To Hell is the perfect example of a polished record - it’s gritty, dark, raw with excellent production that refined the bands’ raw energy into a more polished sound without sacrificing their signature intensity. This is an album that showcases the height of their creative powers and is full of powerful riffs, tight rhythms and a swagger throughout that would have anyone impressed. This is without a doubt one of the greatest rock albums of all-time and should be appreciated by all.

Recommended for anyone looking for one of the most iconic listens in history regardless of your taste.

Album Artwork Rating
10/10

This is the definition of a classic rock album cover. It’s subtly angry and hellish, and fits the theme of the album perfectly. This is an instantly recognisable album to pretty much every music lover in the world - the sinister look of Malcom Young, the playful smile of Bon Scott and obviously Angus Young had to be the devil here.. instantly distinguishing. You don’t have to like AC/DC to appreciate that this is a cover that represents an iconic part of music history and a collection of songs to match.
