How Does AC/DC Choose An Album Title

By Paul Cashmere
Wed, 16 Jul 2008 12:30:51 +1000

We here at Undercover are excited about the impending announce of the 15th AC/DC album `Black Ice`, so we researched how AC/DC Corp. operates internally and how they make their business decisions.

The results were quite revealing.

Here is a sample of a recent boardroom discussion debating new album titles:

Angus: All right. Don`t be shy; just throw them out there.
Brian: Well, I`ve been toying with something called "Flirt in a Skirt."
Phil: I like it! That`s a keeper.
Cliff: How about "Snowball'"
Brian: That`s a good one, but we already went in that direction with "Snowballed" from For Those About to Rock.
Cliff: I should have known it was too good to be true.
Brian: That`s a good reminder to do our homework before we meet.
Angus: What do you guys think of "Pole Position"'
Brian: That I can work with.
Angus: Malcolm, what are you giggling about' Do you want to share it with the group'
Malcolm: Yeah. "Put Your Glove on My Love."
Phil: Boys, we might as well pack up and go home. We`re not going to do better than that.
Cliff: That is a moneymaker.
Angus: Malcolm, this may be inappropriate, but I`m going to hug you.
[Rustling sound on tape]
Angus (to Malcolm): I seem to have wrinkled your coat. I`ll pay for the dry cleaning. (To the group) OK, that one is going to get the juices flowing.

For a few laughs, read the entire AC/DC spoof at http://www.mcsweeneys.net/2002/07/22acdc.html


And prepare for `Black Ice` to melt soon.
