簡介
Ballbreaker by AC/DC was produced by Rick Rubin, marking a significant departure from the band's previous works. Rubin had long been a fan of the band; Tony Platt, a former engineer for AC/DC, recalled accidentally listening to Rubin's work with the Cult on their LP "Electric" in 1987. This underscores the special significance and breakthrough potential that Rubin brought to AC/DC’s musical style.
The album's creation process saw a creative shift in sound heavily influenced by Rubin's production approach. His involvement marked a departure from the band's previously formulaic sound, creating a new sonic profile for Ballbreaker.
Rubin himself had long been an admirer of AC/DC’s music; his enthusiasm helped reshape the creative process. This collaboration resulted in an album that focused on rougher, harder sounds and provided a stark contrast to previous AC/DC releases.
In summary, Ballbreaker stands as a significant artistic milestone for AC/DC. It demonstrates the band's willingness to break traditional boundaries and integrate innovative producers like Rick Rubin into their musical journey.
