Best Answer

Angus Young's energetic guitar style has been an influence on many young hard rock guitarists. His work with AC/DC has been an influence on bands ranging from Guns N' Roses, Slayer, The Cult, Jackyl, Metallica, and Def Leppard to newer artists like Disturbed, Jet, Alter Bridge, Buckcherry, Airbourne, The Darkness, Rob Tognoni, Wolfmother, and You Am I.[citation needed] Young cites his own influences as Chuck Berry, Pete Townshend, Muddy Waters, Leslie West, Keith Richards, B.B. King, George Harrison, Buddy Guy, and other blues/rock and roll players. AC/DC's music was based mostly on rhythm & blues and early-1970s hard rock.
