According to TWISTED SISTER frontman Dee Snider, the new AC/DC album “has been recorded” but has had to be “delayed” because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

SNIDER told ABC Audio: “I haven’t heard anything, but… it’s AC/DC, man. You can’t go wrong! Four chords and a dream, baby! That’s it!”

Last December, Snider confirmed that he had dinner with Brian Johnson and that the AC/DC frontman was doing “good,” four years after he was forced to leave the band mid-tour due to a dangerous level of hearing loss. He was eventually replaced on the road by GUNS N’ ROSES vocalist Axl Rose.

Regarding his previous comment that the surviving members of AC/DC were working on a new studio album which will reportedly be dedicated to the band’s late rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young, Snider told ABC Audio: “This is gonna be a miracle of technology. What will be achieved, the reuniting of the band that we know for one more album, is gonna be uplifting and heartbreaking at the same time. Because nothing goes on forever. But this is the ultimate ‘one more time.'”

Snider’s latest comments seem to corroborate a September 2018 report from JAM! magazine, which cited a “reliable source inside the AC/DC camp” as indicating that the band was recording a new LP which will utilize previously unreleased guitar tracks from Malcolm Young on all the songs.

This past February, Snider said that AC/DC’s upcoming album will feature “some surprises” related to Malcolm Young that will blow the minds of the band’s diehard fans.
