A hard-hitting blow that is both brutal and honest.
The band's original energy is condensed into a simple, rugged sound, embodying the appeal of hardcore blues rock.
"Powerage" is a representative work of AC/DC's mid-period. The album is centered around crisp guitars and Angus Young's explosive riffs, with rhythms that are both solid and rough. It clearly shows a stance of rejecting flashy productions and instead relying on the intensity of the performance itself. Bon Scott's vocals are raw and exude working-class realism. This album embodies the spirit of rock 'n' roll at its purest.
