AC/DC é uma banda de rock formada em Sydney, Austrália em 1973 pelos irmãos Angus e Malcolm Young. A banda é normalmente classificada como hard rock e considerada uma das pioneiras do heavy metal, juntamente com bandas como Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest e Deep Purple. No entanto, os seus membros sempre classificaram a sua música como rock and roll.
AC/DC passou por várias mudanças de alinhamento antes de lançarem o seu primeiro álbum, High Voltage, em 1975. A formação manteve-se estável até o baixista Cliff Williams substituir Mark Evans em 1977. Em 1979, a banda gravou o seu bem-sucedido álbum Highway to Hell. O vocalista e co-compositor Bon Scott faleceu a 19 de Fevereiro de 1980, após consumir na noite anterior uma grande quantidade de álcool. O grupo considerou por algum tempo a separação, mas rapidamente o ex-vocalista dos Geordie, Brian Johnson, foi selecionado para o lugar de Scott. Mais tarde nesse ano, a banda lançou o seu álbum mais vendido, Back in Black.
O álbum seguinte da banda, For Those About to Rock (We Salute You), foi também bem sucedido e tornou-se o primeiro álbum de heavy metal a atingir o 1º lugar nos Estados Unidos. O AC/DC caiu em popularidade pouco após a saída do baterista Phil Rudd em 1983. As fracas vendas continuaram até ao lançamento de The Razor’s Edge em 1990. Phil Rudd regressou em 1994 e contribuiu para o álbum de 1995 da banda, Ballbreaker. Stiff Upper Lip foi lançado em 2000, tendo sido bem recebido pela crítica. Planos para um novo álbum foram anunciados em 2004, sendo cumpridos em 2008, com o lançamento do álbum Black Ice no dia 20 de outubro de 2008.
O AC/DC já vendeu cerca de 200 milhões de cópias em todo o mundo, incluindo 71 milhões somente nos Estados Unidos. Back in Black já vendeu cerca de 43 milhões de cópias a nível mundial, do quais 22 nos Estados Unidos, fazendo dele o 2º álbum mais vendido de todos os tempos e o 5º mais vendido nos Estados Unidos. AC/DC ficou em quarto na lista da VH1 dos “100 Maiores Artistas de Hard Rock” e foram considerados pela MTV a 7ª “Maior Banda de Heavy Metal de Todos os Tempos” e em 2004, a banda ficou em 72º na lista dos “100 Maiores Artistas de Todos os Tempos” feita pela revista Rolling Stone.
