House Speaker and Republican Paul Ryan recently sat down with Politico to discuss the currently presidential race, more specifically the idea of Donald Trump being the Republican candidate. It's a pretty lengthy interview, and takes a pretty hard left turn at one point where Ryan starts talking about listening to AC/DC and how Axl Rose fronting the group is a little weird. Ryan has made his affection for bands like AC/DC and Led Zeppelin known in the past.
So just in case you needed to know where Paul Ryan stands on these important national issues, read up.
"[It's] a little weird. The AC/DC voice is just so iconic, so known, it's strange. [The] Brian Johnson [era of AC/DC] is the one that most of us grew up with. Now, 'Dirty Deeds', I have that album… My kids love a couple of songs on that album. But the raspy voice of most of what people think of AC/DC — 'Whole Lotta Rosie', 'It's A Long Way To The Top', all the 'Back In Black' stuff — that is not Axl Rose. But you have to understand, that's what younger people think of AC/DC."
"Has he put gravel in his voice? I mean, the question is, can he…? He's got more range in his voice… If he smoked a couple of packs a day for the last ten years, maybe he'd be better. And it [would] sound like AC/DC."
Next up – we track down Donald Trump and ask him what his stance is on new vs. old Sepultura.
