Example Sentences

AC/DC has decreed it: Let there be rock.

Earlier this year, AC/DC completed the European leg of its tour, which shares its name with the band’s 2020 album, “Power Up.”

Framed as a tribute to the Grammy-winning troupe’s founding guitarist Malcolm Young, who died in 2017, the LP became AC/DC’s third No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 and closed out the year on Rolling Stone’s list of Top 50 Albums of 2020.

The current lineup of the band — save for Chaney, who replaced AC/DC’s now-retired bassist Cliff Williams — last played in the U.S. at the 2023 Power Trip festival in Indio, where the quintet performed classics from 1980’s “Back in Black” to 1990’s “Thunderstruck.”

AC/DC performed its first show on Dec. 31, 1973, at the Chequers Nightclub in Sydney and has since sold more than 200 million albums worldwide.
