Pros: Well produced and polished; infectious beats; great guitar riffs; timeless material. Cons: A few songs went off-track.
I like to think of myself a connoisseur of all types of music; as long as it is good I will listen and appreciate. Of course I get to be the judge of what is good and what isn’t; and for me most (hard) rock-n-roll doesn’t sound good to me. So it was a ...
Pros: Picks up right where Pyromania left off. Great songs, great energy. Cons: Insignificant ones...
Consistency.
So many rock bands today (and yesterday) try to achieve consistency while expanding on their artistic abilities. Typically, the results are lack luster at best, or a change in direction that never quite gathers the attention of...
Pros: Great lyrics, beats, presentation, never hitting the seek button, and list goes on and on! Cons: None!
Only 8 years old when Def Leppard came onto the scene, having a brother 6 years older, I still can remember him blasting this album over and over again in his bedroom. In my Epinion, there will never be a better age for music than the 70's early 80's. ...
Pros: Def Leppard’s best album, and one of the late 80s best albums Cons: Lead guitar kicked the bucket shortly after the band hit it big
Well, speaking of music, I might not be a legitimate 80s child – though born in 1982 I only really started listening to music in the end of the 90s… but those of you who have seen some of my reviews probably know – I love that decade. ...
Pros: entertaining and very cool guitar in places, perfect for its time. Cons: Cheesy, production is over the top, Pyromania is better, abandoned metal roots.
There are things a band really can’t get away with these day’s, they range from sounding like a distinctive band to having the style of a particular era which can only be acceptable if it is that era. More often than not people will say that the ...
Pros: Even with help from an electric kit, a one-armed drummer is pretty impressive. Cons: Most of the songs are too long, too over-produced, or both.
And so, after just having reviewed one of the best and most popular hard rock/pop albums of the 80's, I will review one of the most overrated. Def Leppard was one of those bands that was tailor-made for Behind The Music. They recorded two ...
Pros: 1, great music 2. get you moving kind of music 3. great music Cons: they just don't play it on the radio like they use to
I was born in 1967 so doing the math you can figure out that I turned 13 in 1980. Well my high school years and college years were both during the 80's so yes you could say I was part of the big hair band era. I was an avid big hair heavy metal fanatic,...
Pros: Strong musicianship and maturing song writing Cons: Were there some?
Don’t you hate people who think a group’s best album came out during a particularly significant period in their life? I mean, it’s as if the whole world is nothing but backdrop to their life. Good grief.
Pros: The layered vocals and guitars sound cool, every song is catchy-it is rock "Thriller!" Cons: Does not kick as much booty as Pyromania or High N' Dry did
Interestingly enough, even though Def Leppard is one of my favorite, if not my very favorite bands(right up there with NIN), their most popular album took me the longest to obtain. I guess I did not see as much of a need to get it with the fact that...
Pros: A musical MASTERPIECE!! Flawless production. Brilliant songwriting, superb musicianship. Classic songs. An A+! Cons: None...this is Def Leppard at their best!!
In 1987, Def Leppard released their long-awaited fourth LP, Hysteria. After a three-year hiatus from the music scene, riding the wave of success from their enormously popular Pyromania album (released in 1984), their next release HAD to ...
Pros: An awesome display of slickly-produced heavy rock music. Cons: Some of the songs are a little repetitive.
Heavy rock is perhaps the most underrated of all the musical genres, and Def Leppard possibly the most underrated of all the heavy rock bands, in the UK at any rate, which is perhaps strange given the fact that it’s their home country. In the USA,...
Pros: Everything on this album fits. Great production Cons: NONE!!!
I have to rate Hysteria as one of the greatest albums of all time. Def Leppard practically created a whole new genre with this album and made themselves the undisputed kings of arena-rock in the 80's, selling millions of records and reasserting...
Pros: Superb all round album with diverse rock music. Cons: Most of the albums do not vary from Hysteria.
I'm from Sheffield, the home town of Def Leppard, and I have followed them for many years. They are Sheffield's biggest export, and one of Britain's most successful bands in America.
Hysteria was the album that really made them international...
Pros:Amazing, guitar driven, lyrical, melodic, and nearly Heaven on Earth. Cons:There are no cons.
There is not one, NOT ONE, song off this album I don't like. It is a work of art. The singing style of Joe Elliot, the heart and soul of Steve Clark, technicality of Phil Collen, Rick Savage on booming bass, and top it off ...
Pros: All killer, no filler
Perfection production
Cons: Flawless!
Me being 25, this album peaked the charts a few years before i really started digging music, so I never really noticed what a gem this is until I got it many years later. Well, I knew who Def Leppard was, but I didn't really think too much of them. ...
