AC/DC have completed their next album

In a recent interview with Metal Hammer, AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson has revealed that the band have completed work on their next full-length album.

The new record will be the follow-up to 2008's 'Black Ice' and the first since the announcement that founding member Malcolm Young has had to step down from the group due to ill health.

Talking about their experiences of recording the album in Vancouver, Johnson said, "It was brilliant over there. We’re done. I’m very excited and we’ve got some great songs."

And when asked what the title of the record would be, he revealed, "I wanted to call the album 'Man Down'. But it’s a bit negative and it was probably just straight from the heart. I like that."

The new album is expected to arrive either later this year or early 2015. Click here to read the full article in Metal Hammer.
