AC/DC reboots for ‘pure rock’ comeback album, ‘Power Up’
AC/DC is still plugging away with a new LP, “Power Up,” out Friday.The secret to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band’s staying power is hardly rocket science, though.“It’s the honesty of the band, it’s the honesty of the music,” lead singer Brian Johnson, 73, told The Post over a Zoom call from Sarasota, Florida. “It hasn’t gotten a hidden agenda — it’s pure rock and roll.”Lead guitarist and co-founder Angus Young — who joined the Zoom call from Sydney, Australia — added that the key to AC/DC’s longevity has been the group remaining true to itself since forming in 1973.“From the beginning, our main musical style always was guitar-based rock,” said Young, 65.
