Yeah, AC/DC is about as metal as Elvis. Even the Tommy-era Who are more metal than them, with the insane distortion, noise levels, screaching vocals by Roger and classic death-metal growl by John. Boy, I love the Who.
Anyway, yeah, as said, AC/DC never has claimed to be metal, quite the opposite actually. They're a got the hard rock riffwork of the Kinks with the bluesier lead stuff like anyone who was in the Yardbirds. Great band.
Also, RIP Rock n Roll 1951-80. '51 because that's the first time the phrase "rock n roll" was used to describe a musical genre, and '80 since that's when Bon Scott died.
