When a band revolves around a duo of brothers as talented as the Angus brothers, it’s not surprising that AC/DC became and remain so popular. Formed in Sydney in 1973, the band themselves describe themselves as simply“rock and roll.” The band has sold over 200 million records worldwide, including 71.5 million albums in the United States. In 2010, VH1 ranked AC/DCin its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
