\"Hells Bells\" sets a mournful tone with its slow, ominous build, but once Johnson leans into the mic, the band is back in business. From there on out, it\'s a masterful metal adventure that features some of the heaviest and most fist-pumping music of their career, including \"Rock and Roll Ain\'t Noise Pollution\" and the tune that\'s probably inspired more late-night sing-alongs than any other, \"You Shook Me All Night Long.\"
