Sustaining the tragic death of beloved singer Bon Scott in 1980, the band continued on with new vocalist Brian Johnson. Formed by two brothers from Scotland in November 1973 under the Scorpio sign, the outfit quickly became an instant success breaking album sale records with over two hundred million worldwide. AC/DC underwent several line-up changes before releasing their first album, 1975s High Voltage.'Rocker' is an up tempo song by hard rock band AC/DC.It is the sixth track of their Australian album T.N.T., released in December 1975, and was written by Angus Young, Malcolm Young, and Bon Scott.When it comes to legendary status in the Rock world AC/DC holds the top notch since the late ’70s. Their music has been variously described as hard rock, blues rock, and heavy metal, but the band themselves call it simply 'rock and roll'. AC/DC are an Australian rock band formed in Sydney in 1973 by Scottish-born brothers Malcolm and Angus Young.
The main bulk of this song offers less aggression, with powerful lyrics that highlight a mellow, softer voice of Johnson. Keeping the music flowing, “Dogs Of War”, a wicked fading guitar opening with heavy drums lead into a more dramatic track. A deep rocking bass line seamlessly carries clean guitars and heavy cymbals on “Miss Adventure.” Featuring strong backing vocals and key changes, it is AC/DC all the way. On “Rock The Blues Away” a longer opening feeds interest as a smooth, mellow drum beat follows with higher gruff vocals of Johnson which add a fun twist. A stronger musical background leads to a killer guitar solo from Angus along with snappy breakdowns.

This is followed by the deep, clean gruff singing of Johnson that insures a defined, sexy, and different track. As the record winds down, “Sweet Candy” hits the ears hard with an all bass and drum opener. It opens with an intense vocal line that rips into a trance of pure drums, simplistic guitar, and bass lines that allow the track to pop out from the rest. Proving you can teach an old dog new tricks, “Rock The House” has a totally new and exciting sound for AC/DC.
