Stiff Upper Lip is the 17th album
from a group that many would call the world’s
greatest rock band. The 12-song disc finds AC/DC as
unflappable as ever, a vibrant, vital rock band at
the top of their game.
Anchored by one of rock’s most rhythmic duos -
brothers Angus and Malcolm - and buoyed by the
infamous throaty drawl of singer Brian Johnson,
Stiff Upper Lip not only serves up the kind of
carnal shards that fans have come to expect, (it’s
their first studio album in five years) but also
tips its hat to the blues-rock-roots of AC/DC and
brother/producer George Young - who returns to the
work the boards for the first time since 1978’s
classic Powerage. "Malcolm and I were sitting around
going over possible producers one day," recalls
Angus.
