03/17/2011 . Today is the second to last day in Gibson’s countdown of the top 50 Metal Songs of All Time. Today they lay out their picks for 11-20. Here are a couple of highlights:
19. “Back in Black,” AC/DC: It’s hard to believe that Malcolm Young at first felt the riff for “Back in Black” was too funky for AC/DC. a celebratory tribute to the band’s late singer, Bon Scott, “Back in Black” comes off like a metal-stoked reinvention of Aerosmith’s “Walk this Way.” to this day, Brian Johnson’s scruffy, blue-collar pseudo-rap cuts with knife-edge sharpness against Angus Young’s serrated six-string lines. – Russell Hall
