Man this thread is made of fail. AC/DC, racist? That's like saying Nelson Mandela started slavery and child abuse. It just doesn't work out. Switching Back with Black on an album cover doesn't prove your point, all it does it is say "Hey everyone, I can make a play on words!". Also, saying their lyrics are racist is just laughable as well.
"Yes, I'm let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
Saying that he was a black guy being hung."
Or maybe saying he's let loose from that which was constraining him.
"Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack
Saying black people are good at shooting"
I see nothing aiming anything towards blacks in this at all. Juts because it talks about guns doesn't mean he's talking about blacks.
"Cause I'm back on the track
Saying black people are too poor to live in houses so they live on railroads"
Or perhaps saying he's back on track in life, finally going where he wants to.
"Yes, I'm in a bang
With a gang
Saying only black people are in gangs"
The actual lyrics are I'm in a band with a gang.
You might want to check up on some of these things a bit more before you attack a band.

No, my butts fine. I just don't like how some people feel that because they can come up with crazy stories that they are instantly right. Read some of this guys posts, he actually believes in what he's saying!
[QUOTE=Trogdon]Well you don't have years of scientific data backing your research.
I had a 4.0 in biology and chemistry, so I believe I know my stereotypings.
Not to say I'm making them, this is just how the lyrics were interpreted.[/QUOTE]
What the hell does bio and chem have anything to do with stereotypes?
[QUOTE=Trogdon]You are right mikfoz
I'M ON A JOURNEY TO END AC/DC'S RACISM[/QUOTE]
And I'm on a journey to mars.
Haha that actually makes sense even though it's a joke.

Have you read any of this thread at all apart from the OP?

Considering how I quoted some of them, what do you think?

You seem to be missing the satire, indicating you didn't read the posts all that thoroughly.
He sounded pretty serious on this end. No matter. I voiced my opinion.
Satire. :v:
I thought this thread would be about the commonly misinterpreted lyric that says "Season ticket on a..."
Everyone thinks it says
"She's a banword on a..."
Who gives a shit if AC/DC doesn't like black people? I can hate mexicans, jews or whatever if I feel like it. It's my opinion and nobody can make me change it. (No I don't actually hate mexicans/jews. Just an example)

Your theory sucks and you should stop why you're ahead.

That's an interesting theory.

This quote makes your theory look COMPLETELY SHITTY and I say it makes you a racist for even being able to SEE those things from an AC/DC Album. Seriously, nobody in their right, not racist mind could even see the things you 'see'.
This seems more plausible than the 9/11 conspiracy and the moon landing being faked.
Wow, people don't seem to know what satire is.

Just defending my favorite band.
They were never under attack, you big silly.
[QUOTE=mikfoz]The black community?
No music from black culture? Which version of the 20th century are you on about?

I meant as in good music.
If you think they're racist,

The aggregate message of their music amounts to "kill white people."

You got to be joking right? A 4.0 in biology and chemistry don't make you a expert.
Go take some sociology, psychology because they both go hand in hand. I've taken an handful of these classes and i have yet to see myself as an expert.
Ehhh...
I hope your not serious.

WELL SIR I HAD A 4.0 IN ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE AS WELL AS HTML PROGRAMMING, I THINK I KNOW MY STEREOTYPINGS.
Isn't everyone Racist? It's just to what extent. AC/DC isn't a fucking Nazi band, so don't start Bitching about them and what you [b]THINK[/b] the Lyrics mean.

It's cause they got attitude. And they are dumb, stupid, nig-... people.

coincidentally I was listening to Back in Black last night (I love AC/DC) and I thought of that exact idea (of switching back and black). I thought it was funny that someone could skew a title just a bit to turn it into something politically incorrect.
I listened to the beginning to "Highway to Hell," and I swear to God, he said: "She's a ni**er..."
[QUOTE=metrio]Fuck! I played it backwards and it said "Ringo is dead"![/QUOTE]
It was "Paul is Dead".

[QUOTE=DeadorK]AC/DC is like, one of the whitest (no racism or anything intended) bands I know. There is no way I could relate them to the stereotypes you stated.[/QUOTE]
