AC/DC Had Made Several Studio Albums Before And Was Constantly Supporting Them By Going On A Grueling Tour Schedule. The Song And Album's Title Supposedly Came After A Reporter Asked Bandmembers If They Could Describe What Life Was Like Being Constantly On Tour. Angus Replied That It Was "a Fucking Highway To Hell" Citation Needed And The Name Stuck. He Stated In The Magazine "Guitar World" That When You Are Out On The Road On A Bus Sleeping With A Guy's Smelly Sock In Your Face It's Like You're On The Highway To Hell. Rumours Persisted That The Band Members Were Satanists And This Comment And The Album Cover Depicting Angus With Devil Horns And Tail Only Added Fuel To The Fire. The Band Has Denied Having Anything To Do With Satanism Malcolm Having Even Commented That "me Mum Would Kill Me For That!" Nevertheless This And Other Songs Brought AC/DC Its First Million-Copy-Selling Album And Sent Highway To Hell To #17 On The Charts.
