Word of a new AC/DC album had been circulating among fans since at least 2018, a year on from rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young’s death. The rumours began when Johnson, Young, Williams, Rudd and Stevie Young, the nephew of Malcolm Young, were spotted around a recording studio the band had been known to use.
In December 2019, Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider Tweeted to claim that a new AC/DC record was on the way. Snider doubled down on his claims in an interview with ABC Audio in July 2020, saying: “I haven’t heard anything, but it’s AC/DC, man. You can’t go wrong!”
He added: “Four chords and a dream, baby! That’s it!”
