AC/DC’s Malcolm Young Says A New Album Should Be Ready In “A Year Or Two”

Eric Mackinnon from Classic Rock spoke with AC/DC guitarist Malcolm Young while he was touring the isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides (an island chain off the west coast of Scotland).

He confirmed that the band are working on a potential follow-up to 2008?s Black Ice. But he warned fans are in for a longer wait than expected, after singer Brian Johnson suggested there would be new material next year.

Young explained: “You know what Brian’s like. He just says things and then walks away. It’ll be a little while – a year or two anyway.

“I’ve been doing some jamming on some song ideas but I do that all the time, as do the rest of the band. We are still working. But we had a long rest between Stiff Upper Lip and Black Ice, so I think we need a couple of years to recuperate and work on it a bit more.”

He added it’s unlikely any world tour in support of a future release will grow to the scale of the AC/DC Black Ice trek, which lasted almost two years and sold nearly five million tickets.
