AC/DC is allegedly set to release a new album and tour again with Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose, according to the band’s biographer.
While in 2015 drummer Phil Rudd pulled out of the Rock or Bust world tour due to legal problems in New Zealand, while Brian Johnson had to step down as singer a year later, as he was in danger of going deaf.
Luckily Guns N’ Roses’ Axl Rose stepped in to complete the tour as AC/DC singer, but as soon as it finished bassist Cliff Williams announced he was retiring.
In a statement on Facebook, he wrote: “Speculate all you want but I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: AC/DC will continue with Axl on vocals – new album, touring, the whole nine yards.
“What was a massive gamble by Angus turned out to be an e,qually enormous triumph that has set the scene for the future.”
Axl is currently busy touring with Guns N’ Roses until July and his bandmate Richard Fortus has confirmed they’re planning a new album too.
