AC/DC POSTS NEW SINGLE “SHOT IN THE DARK” FROM FORTHCOMING “POWER UP” ALBUM

AC/DC has released Shot In The Dark, the first single from the band’s long-awaited comeback album, Power Up (now reportedly spelled this way,) out November 13th. The follow-up to 2014’s Rock Or Bust features AC/DC’s 2020 lineup of Brian Johnson (vocals), Phil Rudd (drums), Cliff Williams (bass), Angus Young (guitar) and Stevie Young (guitar).

Angus told Rolling Stone about Shot In The Dark, “It’s got that great AC/DC vibe about it, great swagger, and a good AC/DC rock and roll chant. The title is a little bit cheeky because we all like a little nip [of alcohol] in the night or a few shots in the dark. I was very glad when the record company heard it [that] they felt it was a very strong song and should be the first one that people hear.”

  1. Just heard this, sounds like AC/DC. Will probably have this playing in my head more than a few times in the coming weeks. Like the simple video with just the logo flashing.
    Even though I have had some shots in the dark and daylight, I still prefer my walks in the park.
