AC/DC frontman Angus Young was crowned Kerrang! Legend at this year's Kerrang! Awards in London.

His band graced the first ever cover of the British rock magazine back in 1981.

Kerrang! editor Paul Brannigan called them "one of the most important and influential rock bands in history".

Welsh group Lostprophets were named this year's Best British Band and also scooped the Best Album award for Liberation Transmission.

Rockers Muse won Best Live Band while Bullet For My Valentine picked up the Best Single award for Tears Don't Fall.

Best Band On The Planet went to My Chemical Romance.

The Prodigy won the Spirit of Independence award and Placebo were honoured with the Classic Songwriter award.

Sheffield band Bring Me The Horizon were named Best British Newcomers.

The awards, voted by magazine readers, were held at The Brewery in east London and hosted by former Stereophonics drummer Stuart Cable.

ANY BAND THAT ISN'T EMO/NU METAL, AND STILL PLAYS GUITAR SOLOS SHOULD GET THAT AWARD, NOT SOME GUYS WHO BITCH ABOUT GIRLS!

DIE EMO FUCKING SCUM DIE!

Congrats To Angus, He's defintly a top 5 guitarist, and AC/DC is One of the best bands of all time..

But Jesus to see Those Emo Scumbags get an award from a magazine that used to cover Van Halen and Guns N' Roses, Thats unfucking real...

It's to be expected really. Your average Kerrang reader is between 14 to 18 years old. So to keep selling mags and staying in business they need to make it relevant to them.

anyone who calls MCR the 'best band on the planet' cannot be taken seriously....

Angus deserves it, but Kerrang has become a joke.

Were those awards voted for by their readers, if so then they obviouslt have an average age of 13.

Some shockers there.

Muse are the only decent winners (even if they aren't my thing)

LOL, they had a very bad weekend in the UK:

"The award for least popular band at the festival has to go to My Chemical Romance, who were pelted with plastic bottles almost all the way through their set.

Quite why they played the main stage when The Kooks didn't is one of those mysteries that can never be solved."
