#Ac dc t.n.t. songs full#

T.N.T. is an album that really holds up in the AC/DC catalogue. AC/DC definitely do it justice and ended T.N.T. on a very rockin’ note. This is a very fun song, which was originally penned by Chuck Berry. This seems like a song that should’ve been bigger, maybe up there with “T.N.T.” or AC/DC’s later song, “Highway To Hell.” Closing the album out is “School Days”, which is a groovy blues number. It’s a fun song that included guitar playing that is satisfying to here, along with a great chorus. “High Voltage” is another one of those tracks that I can appreciate, but never really did much for me. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this track. Some of my favorite parts about this song include the fast paced riffing during the verse and Angus’ ripping solo. The riff is super pleasant to the ear and the way Scott sings is superb. The build up in the introduction is perfect.

Up next is my favorite AC/DC song of all time, “Can I Sit Next to You Girl.” I love every single thing about this song. This one is very underrated and another big favorite of mine on this album. It’s a shame this song never quite got bigger. Immediately kicking into a high-tempo rocker is the aptly titled “Rocker.” The trade off between Scott’s quick a cappella and guitar hits give us hints of classic ’50s rock ‘n’ roll songs. This is a hard rock staple, and always will be. I always loved how the tempo suddenly speeds up at the end, giving us the effect of a bomb going off. This is one of AC/DC’s most well known songs, and it’s clear why. I tell you what, if you don’t fist pump with every “oi!” during the introduction, I think you need to see a therapist. It really gives these songs a certain bite. Also, there’s something to be said about the growling background vocals we get, not only on this song, but throughout the album. I love Rudd’s tom playing during the chorus, which gives us a spacey sound. This one was never a huge favorite of mine, but that certainly doesn’t mean it isn’t a fantastic song. This one’s a favorite for sure.īeginning with a steady bass line, “Live Wire” is the fourth song on this stellar album. Although it’s not super obvious, I always thought it was funny how the real meaning of “The Jack” was actually about a venereal disease. The riffing done by Malcolm and Angus Young gives you a lesson in blues playing, just with a harder edge.

With a simple chorus of “she’s got the jack”, this song is a definite head-bobber. Probably the most straightforward blues song on T.N.T., it makes you groove along as if you were part of the music itself.

“The Jack”, which is easily a top three AC/DC songs for me, is up next. My favorite part about this song is definitely the bridge towards the end that crescendos into the final chorus. Rudd’s drum fill that introduces the chorus is a nice touch, and Angus Young delivers us a raw solo, which becomes very typical of his playing. The lyrical content gives us a simple, yet impressive story. “Rock ‘N’ Roll Singer” is the next track, and the mix of the groovy bass line and Phil Rudd’s drumming gives us that chugging effect, which I personally dig. Like I said before, this album gave us the AC/DC sound that we would come to love, and this song’s hard-hitting 4/4 drumming, along with heavy blues guitar work and unique vocals gives us a preview of what’s to come.

Even though it’s a very odd instrument to insert into a bluesy rock song, it fit in like a puzzle piece. I remember hearing this song for the first time and once the bagpipes kicked in, I thought I was hearing a remixed version of some sort. Obviously, the most notable part about this song is the inclusion of bagpipes played by Bon Scott. Kicking of this album is “It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘N’ Roll).” A simple riff starts out this story of the challenges of becoming a successful rock band. If you are more into the early incarnation of AC/DC, you will be a huge fan of the T.N.T.

#Ac dc t.n.t. songs full#

This composition is full of hard rocking rhythm and blues and loaded with some of the band’s most impressive songs. I would say this album marked a serious point in AC/DC’s career, which was the birth of their trademark sound. T.N.T., released only in Australia, is the second studio album by the band. Going through line-up changes is a death wish for most rock bands, but AC/DC managed to roll on like a freight train throughout the past decades. There are very few bands that have been so consistent in quality over the years while using the same formula than AC/DC.
