AC/DC No More

Posted on by

I think it’s fair to say that most nominations on this esteemed site are made very much in anger and frustration at the cock-eyed world in which we live. For once, I write not in anger but in sorrow, for legendary rockers AC/DC are (effectively) no more, and it’s a cunt.

The kings of rock an’ roll have been blowing away crowds everywhere for more than four decades. Nobody rips up the place like these boys, and anyone doubting their credentials when it comes to laying it down needs only reference the attached clip. This is 100% pure, pharmaceutical grade rock an’ roll, injected straight into the vein, so accept no substitutes. If you can keep your feet still when they let rip, God has wasted two legs on you. I rest my case, m’lud.

Be of no doubt then, that AC/DC are the dog’s bollocks, the Real McCoy. But as Geoffrey Chaucher once wrote, time and tide wait for no man, and the years have finally caught up with AC/DC. Hard driving rhythm guitarist and songwriter Mal Young is dead from dementia, aged 64. Singer Brian Johnson has been forced to quit due to chronic hearing difficulties (there’s a surprise), bassist Cliff Williams has put his feet up to enjoy his money, and drummer Phil Rudd seems to have disappeared off the radar. Only lead guitar monster and chief headbanger Angus Young still seems up for it.

There was talk of a new album with that preening knobhead Axl Rose on vocals, but I hope that Angus leaves it there. It would just be an echo, a pale shadow of former glories, just as a new Beatles album would have been without John and George.

They say ‘smile because it happened, don’t cry because it’s gone’, but it’s hard not to cry. No doubt some of you will have rumbled me by now. This ain’t just a lament about the demise of the world’s greatest rock an’ roll band. It’s a lament about the passing of the sweet bird of youth, those halcyon days of vigour and optimism when it seemed that the world truly was your oyster. Once gone they can never come back, and that too is an absolute cunt.

One thing’s for sure though. Rock an’ roll really can never die as long as there’s an AC/DC record left to be played. Thanks for all the music guys, and all the joy it’s brought to this knackered old rock an’ roller.

The kings have gone. Long live the kings.

  1. Loved AC/DC the great Bon Scott and also what they did with Brian Johnson… But how can they continue now without Brian, Malcolm (RIP), Cliff, and Phil?… And the thought of that ferret in a kilt cunt, Axl Rose replacing Brian is a sickener… Cunts ‘N’ Roses had only one man with any talent, Slash….

  2. Dunno if I can behind this cunting. Not a fan as I find their stuff a bit samey but you can’t dent the contribution they’ve made.

    I do rate Sabbath and Zep from the same period, though.

    • Fair does mate; music’s one of those things like humour, it’s subjective. I love AC/DC, but naturally not everyone’s going to feel the same. As I said, it’s as much about cunting getting old as it is about AC/DC. You’re right about Sabbath tho; ‘War Pigs’ is an all time favourite of mine

  3. Fucking right, mate. ‘Down Payment Blues’ is another all time favourite of mine. Superb vocal from Bon, and great driving rhythm guitar.

  4. I used to play in a tribute band called OC/DC.

    After the gig we’d go back and tidy the hotel room….

  5. I’m at a disadvantage as ive never been into music and find adoration of singers and pop groups odd, especially the group’s “telling it how it is” as the Yanks would say, all the gullible students parroting the liberal share it all message of the music and its performers as said performers get as rich as fuck off the back of the gullible idealists. Feck me im miserable old cunt.
    THANK FECK.

  6. I find it rather disturbing when my hero’s be it rock musicians or actors etc are dropping like flies . When I was younger I thought they were immortal stupid cunt that I am.
    No doubt most of us Cunters Grew up in a renaissance period through music film and fashion. I feel sorry for these millennial pricks who have nothing of any substance in there lives.
    No I don’t feel sorry for them.
    Fuck the smug horrible humourless Cunts.

    • Hope you don’t mind me saying so Fenton… but I prefer your old avatar… who’s the new cunt? Recognise him alright, just can’t place the fucker.

      I grew up (like you?) with the music of the ’50s, ’60s & ’70s – a veritable embarrassment of riches! Music has been the most important constant in my life… so blessed to have been born in ’53.

      • Well Ruff Tuff, because there is an Alan Fistula and I think he came first , I am going to re-invent myself as Delbert Grady from the Shining. Cunters are starting to confuse me with Alan

      • Oh yes – excellent choice!

        Though possibly looks a mite benign in that photo… Maybe Fenton’s mellowing with age.

      • Evening Ruff Tuff, because there is another Mr Fistula on here, it seems to be causing some confusion. I have decided to re-invent my self as Delbert Grady from the Shining. I attempted to announce my new persona in an earlier post but admin put a block on it ? Probably come through later.

      • Evening Fenton – well at least I won’t have to feel so frightened in future whilst reading your posts!

    • Worthy riposte Fenton (or is it Alan?)
      I did myself no favours by doing an online search of my local rag where I was dragged up. In 4 months of obituaries I went to school with 2 (my year) was chums with 2 more and noted a half dozen who I knew. Fucking pissed myself right off. Only slightly buoyed by the fact that not a single one of them had been anywhere other than Majorca or Benidorm for 2 weeks every year and lived in the same address they had always lived at. Imagine turning up at the pearly gates and St Pete or the big fella looking at your passport with a shake of his head muttering about not moving off a dot in the ocean to taste the rest of our tiny microscopic planet.
      As for the music bit its just so fucking sad that these legends pop off but are replaced (or not replaced) by soulless, talentless Cowell created and inspired dogshit. At least when Pete Waterman was churning out shite there was an equal amount of good stuff being found by people like Anthony Wilson. The worst thing of all is that we are unlikely ever to see another punk type renaissance that shook the music world up in a bag and emptied out some great music. I have the worthy ISAC contributors to thank for solving a long time musical mystery for me when one (I think it was Norman) who told of him buying “Love’s” box set anniversary thingy so I had a look at a few of their tracks. The first one I played was “Alone again or” – a track which I had had in my head forever probably but never could find it out until Norman came along. The musical knowledge of the revered cunters on this site is superlative – I would love to see behind their cuntish cloaks to reveal the real “them”. I think I would be quite shocked but not a little amazed.

      • Or the original Byrds… Chinstroking cunts and addled old sods like Keef can eulogise Gram Parsons all they like, but David Crosby was right when he said ‘There were only ever five Byrds’… They just about survived the departure of Gene Clark, but when Crosby went they were fucked and just became a tribute act….

        Same goes for The Stone Roses… Great to see them all at Heaton Park, but I mainly went to see Squire and Reni play again…

      • Again Norm,
        You come up with some crackers. Which means I will embarrassingly have to spend more hours on you tube looking at pick of the pops. A veritable walking discography Norman. I used to take record collector pre online as its now still the same price but has about the quarter of its pre internet features (and ads of course). I did find a record by the Artwoods which I believe is worth a few quid. Between you, a couple of other music aficionado cunters and the updated Guinness book of British hit singles I think I will have enough to keep me going till I buy the farm.

      • That Parsons cunt has a lot to answer for.

        The Gilded Palace of Sin is the only thing I have any time for him in.

  7. Pssst. It’s me Fenton everyone. As there is an Alan Fistula on here, to stop any confusion I’ve re-invented myself and become Delbert Grady of the Overlook Hotel.

  8. Have seen AC/DC live two or three times during the 80s and 90s, either at the old Wembley or just down the road at the NEC.

    Terrific atmosphere on all three occasions – really loud throbbing meaty sounds, an electrifying performance by the boys, and the audience totally engrossed (none of this getting your smartphones/tablets out and recording the fucking thing without giving a shit for what is actually happening on the stage!)

    Angus, is my man, and always will be: “Hells Bells”, “Whole Lotta Rose”, “Touch too much” et al…. stonking sounds, brilliant performances that perhaps only Motorhead and Thin Lizzy could ever get close too. (in my experience at least)

    “They” shook me all night long (for 40 fucking years!”)

    • Saw them at Donington in 1980 then Wembley Arena in their Hell’s Bells tour late 80’s, was deaf for days after both, awesome!

  10. They were better than the Yank imitators. Didn’t an elder brother play with the Easybeats? Friday on my Mind was my record of the 60s.

    • George Young was in the Easybeats… ‘Good Times’ by the Easybeats was also a great record… With Steve Marriott on guest vocals…

  11. Not forgetting the contribution that George Young made to the group. George and Malcolm passed away on consecutive months. RIP.

    • Amazing!!……..just how many bare faced fucking lies you can pack into so few sentences. Who wrote this pile of shit….Frau Merkel?

      • If said influx is so clearly beneficial, why have the Tories been pledging to reduce net immigration to under 100k for the last 3 General Elections?

        Surely they want the economy to benefit, ha ha…

    • Let’s call bullshit on this before the steam and stink lines evaporate…

      The document found EU citizens have little impact on UK workers’ wages, pay more in taxes…BULLSHIT ALERT !!!
      Just watched some crap from a shortbread factory in Scotland, pleading poverty because there aren’t enough Poles to come and work for a few pound an hour. When I was 17 years old (about 20 years ago) I earned £11.20 an hour walking around a -40 degree freezer counting boxes of frozen chips etc. The same job today? £7.20 And everyone’s name is vlad or mukhtar.

      Have no adverse impact on young Britons’ schooling… BULLSHIT ALERT !!!

      When I started reception class, even longer ago, my teacher was most impressed that after 2 days in, I could parrot back every name on the register. It’s easy when their are 13 of you. My 5 year olds current intake? 32… 5 Ahmed Mohammeds (or Mohammed Ahmeds), a reeta, a meeta, And 5 of them are from the same immediate family. All non tax payers.

      Are not linked to increasing crime… BULLSHIT ALERT !!!
      Albanians… Anyone? Have you heard of Albanians….

      and contribute “much more” to the NHS than they consume..UBER MEGA BULLSHIT.

      If your on £7.20 an hour (*37.5) and your wife is at home, you are essentially paying about a grand a year in tax, less in NIC. You’re living in a state sponsored house, your 3 kids are at the local school, your nan/grandad only pop over to “visit” when they need a stent, and your on every tax credit going…

      Are you seriously telling me your a benefit? Fuck off, you lieing toads.

      This is why we voted for a brexit, and this is why we won’t forget you once it’s settled.

      • So true. And don’t even get me started on Eastern European Pedestrians.

        The cunts walk out into the road without looking in any direction and when you screech to a halt, blow your horn and shout abuse at them they look at you with scorn as if you are the inconsiderate cunt.

        At least the brain-dead millennial fuckwits who walk into the road staring into their smart phones with head phones or “cans” attached to their heads have something resembling an excuse. The rough-looking, high vis-wearing, 50 something (presumably Polish) cunt who has now done it to me twice…………. not so much.

      • Be reasonable, lads…

        We need the Albanians and Romanians for the massive growth areas that are: gun running, drug-dealing, sex-slave trafficking, murdering women, putting their corpses into suitcasese and dumping them in canals.

        Apart from that, government advisors recently said “Flobalobalob.”

  13. Cable at the Lib Dum conference.

    “Brexit…..it can and must be stopped”…..

    Hang the cunt….

  14. I wouldn’t worry about the Cablecunt, the more arrogant fuckers like him show their utter contempt for the electorate the better.

    • The only things standing in the way of an independent Britain are the House of Commons, House of Lords, Civil Service, CBI, TUC, MSM, the Government and Opposition.

      Cablecunt is obviously a secret Brexiteer.

  15. Germany’s domestic intelligence chief, Hans-Georg Maassen, has been told to quit and move to a senior post at the interior ministry.

    The government decision came amid a row over Mr Maassen’s response to far-right unrest in Chemnitz, eastern Germany.

    Anti-migrant “hunts” were reported there on 26 August after a German man was killed in a brawl with migrants.

    Mr Maassen doubted that foreign-looking people had been hounded. Chancellor Angela Merkel was urged to sack him.

    Critics said his scepticism downplayed the seriousness of far-right violence and intimidation in Chemnitz.

    Mr Maassen will leave the BfV spy service and become a state secretary in the interior ministry. German media report that he will actually move to a higher pay grade. It is not yet clear who will replace him.

    Forced to resign for having the fucking ordacity to call it how he sees it, and not to blame the far right (aka local people who resent being stabbed by foreigners) for the problem in Chemnitz, which as we all know is totally down to Merkel and the Peacefuls.

    • Once had an IKEA dining table called Norden; we called it Dennis.
      Actually, we didn’t, but I still hope he got a percentage.
