The article argues that AC/DC’s creative high point ended after *For Those About to Rock*, with Angus Young later expressing reservations about the band’s subsequent 1980s albums. He reportedly felt *Flick of the Switch* and *Fly on the Wall* contained strong ideas that could have benefited from more development, although neither album seriously damaged the band’s reputation.

The piece describes *Flick of the Switch* as unusually basic and *Fly on the Wall* as poorly recorded, while noting that both retain value for devoted fans. AC/DC regained wider approval with 1990’s *The Razor’s Edge*, particularly through “Thunderstruck”, even though the band’s earlier *Back in Black* era remained unmatched.
