re: Why would AC/DC glorify going to hell in Highway to Hell?

From an 2001 Interview...

It’s like the idea that AC/DC was somehow satanic. It didn’t really have any connection to what the band was doing, did it?
It was all invented at the time. It has always been good party music. Music that you didn’t really have to think about and say, “These guys have got a message.” There was no message. It’s not like we were out there social-reforming or something.
It’s almost beyond your control how people interpret your music, isn’t it?
You can’t control it. You meet very smart people, and they look at you and go, “These are five suburban dummies.” And then other people go, “There’s a mystery to this. They must have some brainpower going on behind there.” But you can only take it in stride if somebody looks at it and goes, “It’s another piece of white trash that’s grown on us.”

I had to hide my copy of Let There Be Rock from my mom because it had a song called "Hell Ain't a Bad Place To Be". She'd have brought me to an exorcist if she found that.

Just a Rock-N-Roll Damnation.

I always was a bit puzzled by the statement by the band that Back in Black was a tribute to Bob Scott, when the album included song tracks called "Hell's Bells" and "Have a Drink on Me", since he had just died only a few months prior due to a alcohol induced barfing and choking.
But, I'm sticking with the belief that BS had a big part of that album, yet the rest of the band always claim Brian Johnson did a big part and BS did none.

Brian wrote the lyrics on that album. Watch the Big Interview with Dan Rather episode he's featured on for more on that.

They come from the home of eastern brown snakes, box jellyfish, salt water crocodiles, Huntsman spiders, blue-ringed octopi, Taipans, great white sharks, stonefish, red backed spiders, funnel web spiders, death adders, yellow bellied sea snakes, and giant centipedes. Hell is a honeymoon resort.
