Remastered from the original mix-down 2-track masters for unprecedented sonic brilliance.
Sick and tired of the pop and pop-metal that was being heralded by MTV in 1988, AC/DC released the aptly titled Blow Up Your Video, a major reaction to the slick, image-intensive bands that the music television format had spawned. While other bands who had always cited AC/DC as an influence (many of whom opened for the band on their way up) became increasingly popular, the trappings of rock stardom began to creep into the genre, rendering many so-called hair bands ridiculous clones of one another. This was diametrically opposed to AC/DC's stripped-down rock credosomething the band had stuck to since their early days. So, what to do if the genre you helped create turns on you? You stick to your guns, crank up the volume, and simply blow them all away.
