The song is from 'Rock or Bust,' the band's first studio album in six years. It will be released November 28 in Australia and December 2 in North America.
The band will embark on a world tour in to promote 'Rock or Bust' and celebrate their 40th anniversary, with Angus and Malcolm Young's nephew Stevie stepping in for Malcolm on rhythm guitar.

Vocalist Ryan Kirby said, "The song is basically about how our new bass player Ryan O'Leary experienced a lot of loss. We wanted to write a song coming from the point of view of somebody who doesn't believe or is angry at God, saying, 'Why would you take my friend? How can you say this good person, who wasn't a Christian, is going to Hell?' The song is very frustrated, lyrically. We wanted it to have this realism that even when you're a Christian, you still struggle with thinking, 'How could my friend pass away and live an awesome life and be nothing but a good person and then not go to Heaven?'"
