The year is 2022. After putting every morsel of their former glory into POWER UP, can we possibly with any crumb of realism expect new music from AC/DC? We shouldn't get ahead of ourselves here, but bandleader Brian Johnson is sure making it sound like the band aren't yet finished and that he'd love to see a next chapter happen.
In a new interview with Billboard, the singer offered a preview of the goldmine that is his forthcoming memoir The Lives of Brian — originally scheduled for release last year but postponed until October 25, 2022 — as well as an update on his future plans with the band.
"I would love to do music again," Johnson told journalist Gary Graff, "whether it'll be guesting with somebody, whether it be actually playing live with the boys. I've heard that term 'hell freezes over' a million times before with people saying, 'I'm not doing that again.' But I'd be up for it. I think everybody hopes to make more music."
The musician also referenced AC/DC as "still a working entity of sorts," though he didn't offer any details pertaining to touring engagements or new music. The band released POWER UP in 2020 after embracing new technology and old friends. Especially considering all the adversity they faced leading up to it, it was a record that arrived as a pleasant, re-energizing surprise.
It sounds like Johnson still may have a few more up his sleeve — and doctors might have some new tunes to help them perform surgery more precisely and efficiently.
