The opening guitar riff from AC/DC's Back in Black, the title track from their 1980 rock album, used for confident entrances and comeback moments.

This clip is the iconic opening of Back in Black by AC/DC, built around a tight, palm-muted electric guitar riff, a steady kick and snare groove, and a brief pause that makes the return hit harder. It is clean, punchy and instantly recognisable, with no vocals in this short excerpt so the riff carries all the attitude. Listeners hear confidence and swagger rather than aggression, a sense that someone important has just walked in and taken control. The dry production and repeating pattern make it loop-friendly and easy to recognise in the first second, even on small speakers.

Back in Black was released in 1980 as the title track of AC/DC's seventh studio album, the first with singer Brian Johnson after the death of Bon Scott. Produced by Robert John Mutt Lange, the album became one of the best-selling records of all time, and its opening riff became a staple of rock radio, films, sports arenas and adverts. Online, the short riff excerpt is widely reused as a meme sound for entrances, transformations and confident returns, because the groove is familiar across generations and needs no explanation.
