After dancing on the razor's edge for several years it now appears that AC/DC have confirmed that they will release a new album
The news follows a chance meeting between frontman Brian Johnson and US band Terrorizer at an airport.
In a Facebook post, Terrorizer said, ""We ran into Brian Johnson from AC/DC at the airport today after the flight home,"
"We asked him about the rumours of him being on the new AC/DC album and he said ‘yes’ and that he is ‘sick of denying it.’ So that was a cool surprise ending to the tour."
The news follows reports last year from "a reliable source inside the AC/DC camp" that AC/DC were recording a new album that will feature the work of their late rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young on "every track".
Young died in November 2017 after retiring from the band due to early onset dementia.
In 2016, Johnson was forced to quit the legendary act after suffering hearing loss and was replaced on the band’s Rock of Bust tour by Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose.
He was later rumoured to be reuniting with the band for a new record after he was spotted with the band’s former drummer Phil Rudd in Vancouver.
Speaking last year, a source close to the band said: "Turns out, five years prior to the Black Ice LP, AC/DC’s 15th studio release, Angus and Malcolm Young lived to together [sic] where they literally wrote hundreds of songs, many were recorded and have been stashed away until now.
"Angus has decided to selected [sic] the best tracks from those recordings that Malcolm played on and is now back in the studio recording and mixing them with fellow band mates Phil Rudd, Cliff Williams and yes, Brian Johnson on vocals."
The band last played Ireland in July 2015.
