According to the American publication, Rolling Stone, the album will also have unreleased songs written by Angus about the unfortunate demise of his late brother.
“This record is pretty much a dedication to Malcolm, my brother. It’s a tribute for him like ‘Back in Black’ was a tribute to Bon Scott,” ” Angus Young said in an interview.
After 2014, the band separated and went their own ways, just like One Direction. This reunion marks a significant event for heavy metal fans.
2020 marks the 40th anniversary of the band’s biggest album “Back in Black,” which was released in the 1980s.
