Double album by AC/DC?

Will the next release from AC/DC be a double album? Frontman Brian Johnson told us back in the spring that there was enough material for it, and now lead guitarist Angus Young is also saying it might happen. Young told Hit Parader magazine, "We do have a lot of songs at the moment. But that's not incredibly unusual for us. We tend to have a lot of material at some point in the recording process, then begin to whittle it down. But this time, we like a lot of what we're hearing, so the idea of expanding things out is not out of the realm of possibility." The album will likely come out early next year, and the band will launch a major world tour behind it.

AC/DC's last studio album was Stiff Upper Lip, which came out in February 2000. They released a video compilation called Family Jewels earlier this year.

Johnson sang Led Zeppelin's "Rock And Roll" with Velvet Revolver last week at a Hurricane Katrina benefit the group staged in Orlando, Florida.
