Earlier this year, AC/DC were forced to reschedule tour dates after singer Brian Johnson was forced to stop touring on doctor's orders (or risk "total hearing loss"). Following reports that they were spotted at the same studio together, it's now been confirmed that Axl Rose is the new frontman of AC/DC.
