About AC DC black

Centered on a solid black background is a bold, outlined wordmark reading "AC⚡DC" — two blocky, gothic-styled uppercase letterforms separated by a sharp lightning-bolt glyph. The letters are drawn as white outlines (no filled interior), giving a high-contrast, stencil-like appearance.
Below the band wordmark, in a separate horizontal line, is the album title "BACK IN BLACK" set in a classic serif, all-caps typeface in solid white. The overall layout is minimal and monochrome, with strong geometric letterforms and the lightning bolt as the focal symbol.

What's in it: lightning bolt

Shapes: wordmark lightning bolt outlined glyphs horizontal stacked text

Text in logo: AC/DC BACK IN BLACK
