Power Up is the seventeenth studio album by Australian rock band AC/DC, released on 13 November 2020 through Columbia Records and Sony Music Australia. It is their sixteenth internationally released studio album and the seventeenth to be released in Australia. Power Up marks the return of vocalist Brian Johnson, drummer Phil Rudd and bassist Cliff Williams, all of whom left AC/DC before, during, or after the supporting tour for their previous album Rock or Bust (2014).[6][7][8] This is also the band's first album since the death of co-founder and rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young in 2017 and it serves as a tribute to him, according to his brother Angus.[9][10] The album was generally well received by music critics and reached number one in 21 countries. It sold 1.4 million copies worldwide.[11]

Background and recording[]

Following the 2014 album Rock or Bust, the group embarked on a seventeen-month world tour. Prior to the tour, drummer Phil Rudd was charged with attempting to procure murder, threatening to kill, possession of methamphetamine, and possession of cannabis. For the tour, Rudd was replaced by Chris Slade, who had also previously played with AC/DC on their 1990 album The Razors Edge, several years after Rudd first left the band.[12] By 2016, lead singer Brian Johnson had started to suffer hearing loss,[13][14] causing the final ten dates of the Rock or Bust tour to be rescheduled. Ultimately, he was replaced with Guns N' Roses vocalist Axl Rose for the remaining dates.[12][15] On 8 July 2016, bassist Cliff Williams announced that he would be retiring from the band once the tour was finished, citing health issues as reasons for retiring, and calling AC/DC a "changed animal".[16]

This record is pretty much a dedication to Malcolm, my brother. It's a tribute for him like Back in Black was a tribute to Bon Scott.

—Angus Young, on Power Up[10]

In 2018, rumours began circulating that AC/DC were working on their seventeenth studio album, with Johnson, Rudd, and Williams having returned to the group. Johnson, Rudd, Angus Young and Stevie Young were photographed in August 2018 at Warehouse Studio, a recording studio in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada owned by fellow musician Bryan Adams, suggesting the band were working where they had recorded their three previous albums.[17][18][19] The rumors were later confirmed to be true, with the album being recorded there over a six-week period in August and September 2018 with producer Brendan O'Brien, who also worked on 2008's Black Ice and 2014's Rock or Bust,[9] with some tweaking having followed in early 2019.[10] Every track is credited to Angus and Malcolm Young as Angus raided the AC/DC vault of unreleased songs to record the album.[10]

Promotion and release[]

After a series of cryptic teases reading PWR/UP (stylised as PWRϟUP) on the band's website, the album's title was revealed to be Power Up on 7 October 2020.[12][20]

Also after a series of teasers in the days prior, the music audio for the band's first single, "Shot in the Dark", was released the same day.[3][21] A music video for the song was released on 26 October 2020.[22] The song topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart for two weeks starting in November 2020.[23] A (53-second) short clip of a second song, "Demon Fire", was debuted ahead of the album's release on 30 October 2020 as well[24][25][4] and was released once again on 8 December 2020, the day before the complete song's world premiere release.[26]

The music audio for the album's second single, "Realize", was released on 11 November 2020.[4][27]

The album was released on 13 November 2020.[28] In its first week of release, it was projected to place either first or second on the Billboard 200 all-format albums chart, and to top the US and UK album sales chart.[29][30][31]

On 7 December 2020, it was announced that the music video for "Demon Fire" would have its world premiere release on 9 December 2020 as the third single from the album.[32][33]

A music video for the song "Realize" was released via YouTube on 13 January 2021.[34]

A music video for the song "Witch's Spell" was released via YouTube on 9 June 2021.[35]

At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the release received an average score of 79, based on 19 reviews, indicating "Generally favourable reviews".[37] Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave the album a 7.2 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.[36]

AllMusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine stated, "Good times have always been a crucial part of the band, but there's a depth of feeling to the levity on Power Up, as if the band decided that the best way to pay respect to what they've lost is by focusing on what they still have. They don't dwell upon the past, they barrel forward with a set of turbocharged blues and high-octane rock that doesn't merely sound good, it feels nourishing."[38] Daniel Sylvester of Exclaim! noted, "The fact that AC/DC came together to create something as satisfying as Power Up when the cards were down is a complete miracle upon itself, and AC/DC seem more than ready to celebrate."[41] Kitty Empire of The Guardian gave the album three stars out of five, stating, "If deja vu is a familiar sensation with AC/DC, few outfits have managed to eke so much variety out of so few constituent parts as these stalwarts of reductio ad absurdum. For the undiminished certainties AC/DC provide in the face of adversity, it's hard not to salute them."[42] Nick Ruskell of Kerrang! observed, "AC/DC have made an album that, even for them, is a high-voltage celebration of life, the best of times, and the absolutely indomitable, boundless power of a couple of chords and a four-four beat. In a time where getting together with your mates and partying and getting the beers in and shagging and living it up is all but illegal, as a reminder of just how powerful and timeless the very idea of these wonderful things are, AC/DC have never felt more necessary or vital."[44]
