Have you ever played "Thunderstruck?" Ridden down the "Highway to Hell?" Or maybe just felt the unmistakable need to rock out? The rock and roll legends of AC/DC—or at least what’s left of them—have stopped at nothing to make that happen. Apparently, they named both their 1981 hit song and album “For those about to rock, we salute you” for a reason. Brian Johnson was sincere when he yelled “Rock ‘n’ roll ain’t noise pollution, rock ‘n’ roll ain’t gonna die!” to conclude the groundbreaking 1980 LP Back In Black. And lead guitarist Angus Young wasn’t playing around when he’d basically explode with derangement onstage with the energy of a lightning bolt. No, these guys are obsessed.

No other artists have excited classic rock fans in recent years as much as Greta Van Fleet. On Oct. 9, they released their first new song in over a year, “My Way, Soon”, which is already charting at 38 on the Billboard 200 list. The tune is very refreshing both as a work of art and for its free–spirited message. With lyrics like “I’ve packed my bags and I’ve got my freedom” and “I’ll throw out the plans and live with no burden,” it reminds us that even in life’s worst moments, we can lift ourselves up and start anew.

On Tuesday, Oct. 6, we lost one of the greatest rock and roll guitarists of all time. Aside from founding the decade–defining band Van Halen, Eddie Van Halen planted the technical and stylistic seeds for generations of guitarists in both rock and metal music.
