AC/DC are soon expected to share news on their next album, and teasers have been coming fast and furious in recent weeks. Following some leaked images and an electric social media rebrand, the band's latest clue has arrived outside the old high school of guitarist Angus Young.

Today, Australian radio station Triple M shared an image of a poster outside Young's alma mater Ashfield Boys High School in New South Wales, which reads, "Are You Ready? SYD PWR UP."

Squint hard at the bottom of the poster, and you'll find web address pwrup.acdc.com, which also calls on fans to "Power Up" upon clicking through. The site design also prominently features the neon red lightning bolt from AC/DC's updated social media branding, in addition to a band lineup and other details conveniently blocked with caution tape.

Speaking of that signage, AC/DC have also shared another glimpse of the glowing symbol on socials today, complete with a #PWRUP hashtag.
AC/DC's most recent album remains 2014's Rock or Bust, though rumours concerning a follow-up have been abound since the band were photographed exiting a Vancouver recording studio in 2018.

The effort is said to feature unused guitar tracks from late guitarist Malcolm Young, while the aforementioned leaked photos pointed to a lineup featuring vocalist Brian Johnson, drummer Phil Rudd, bassist Cliff Williams, and guitarists Angus and Stevie Young.
