Cultural Facts:

1. Personal Struggle: Bon Scott’s hard drinking and road life were already part of AC/DC’s danger story, and his 1980 death made this album his final full statement.
2. Studio Lore: After failed early work with Eddie Kramer, Mutt Lange took control and pushed the band into sharper arrangements without sanding off the menace.
3. Public Scandal: The title and devil-horn cover fed religious panic, but the phrase came from touring exhaustion, not Satanism.
