Ever wondered what happens when you take rock legends like AC/DC and pick apart their greatest songs to find the hidden duds? In this episode of The Worst of the Best Podcast, hosts Ryan and Ruban, joined by first-time guest Andrew, break down Rolling Stone's reader-voted top 10 AC/DC tracks—from classics like "Back in Black" to "Thunderstruck"—and reveal their personal picks for the worst among these rock anthems.
We dive deep into AC/DC's history, from Bon Scott's tragic passing to Brian Johnson's gravelly vocals, Axl Rose's surprising tour stint, and even rumors of a new album recorded in Vancouver. Hear hilarious stories about live concerts, like the epic hot-boxed Pacific Coliseum show, and why songs like "Shoot to Thrill" or "It's a Long Way to the Top" might not hold up for everyone. Whether you're a die-hard AC/DC fan reminiscing about their blues roots or just love rock debates, you'll gain fresh insights into what makes these tracks timeless (or not) and why even the greatest bands have off moments.
