[_hi_water._]

High Voltage has been eliminated.

 

16. Ballbreaker (1995)

15. Rock Or Bust (2014)

14. Stiff Upper Lip (2000)

13. Blow Up Your Video (1988)

12. Black Ice (2008)

11. Fly On The Wall (1985)

10. Power Up (2020)

9. Flick Of The Switch (1983)

8. The Razors Edge (1990)

7. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976)

This could potentially be the last round for immunity.

Voting to eliminate Let There Be Rock this round. I always preferred the live If You Want Blood versions of the title track, Whole Lotta Rosie and Bad Boy Boogie, so that's as good a reason as any. As with previous rounds, there's really no wrong immunity choice or any correct pick for elimination. These are all great albums beginning to end.

I'm only interested in the Bon Scott years.

Cannon's gotta go. Good album, but for me it's the point when AC/DC records all started to sound the same. Edited February 6, 2022 by TexMike

Process of elimination, FTATR. I love the song I Put The Finger on You... ass kicker.

Old school. Stacks of amps and just blowing your ears out - I loved this period and its immediate predecessors.

How can one vote anything with this on it down?

I listened to For Those About To Rock a couple of times in the last few days. Evil Walks? Spellbound? Let's Get it Up? It's really just a smidge off the pace of Back in Black.

AC/DC was the first concert I went to, the FTATR tour at Boston Garden. Loud as hell. The next time I saw them was in 2015 at Gillette Stadium. Loud as hell.

Phew, this is hard. Don't really want to eliminate any. I guess Breaking the rules take FTATR down a bit but I love the rest. Surprisingly for some, Bad Boy Boogie is my least favourite on Let there be rock behind the deep cuts like Overdose, go down and Dog eat Dog. Still a fun track through.

The others don't really have any low points as such.

Reluctantly elim FTATR :-(

I totally agree

[Lurkst]

As previously mentioned FTATRWSY is one I have a lot of fondness for, and I'm pleased it's lasted so long. But, so long....

I think it's their best sounding album.

My uncle was about 4-5 blocks away from the arena and said he thought he heard explosions.... lol. We were proud to tell him it was canon fire.

[Rick N. Backer]

Are you sure some of you Bon era fans aren't confusing the studio individual albums with compilations?

 

Today I listened to Let There Be Rock and Powerage. Love them. But they're not better than FTATR.

Even without the cannons (which in 1981 the Garden's people were concerned might cause structural damage from the sound), just the band was almost uncomfortably loud.
