Vault: Def Leppard Greatest Hits»rank: 574by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :\N :To have resisted Def Leppard's radio power in their heyday, you'd have to have been a critic--and even some of us could hardly argue with the likes of 'Photograph,' 'Animal,' and 'Bringin' on the Heartbreak.' Vault covers a decade and a half of hits by the one-time wonder boys of the new wave of British metal, but perhaps inevitably concentrates on singles from ...

Rock of Ages: The Definitive Collection»rank: 583by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :While many of their peers were abandoning '7Os metal and arena rock to hop the punk/new wave bandwagon, Def Leppard smartly stripped the earlier era's music of its excesses, bolstered it with energetic, pop-savvy hooks and quickly found itself the vanguard of the UK's new metal revival and one of the '8Os most spectacularly successful rock acts. The first disc of this 35-track, two-and-a-half hour ...

Hysteria»rank: 945by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :Probably Def Leppard's best album, and certainly their most successful, Hysteria pretty much sums up 8Os hard rock: catchy, tuneful, and fun. lt's also one of the few albums from the period that doesn't sound dated now, and singles like 'Pour Some Sugar 0n Me', 'Armageddon lt', and 'Rocket' remain staples of rock radio. The rest of the album is equally entertaining; 'Animal' and 'Hysteria', ...

Pyromania»rank: 3795by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :Def Leppard's rock sensibilities shot them right to the top of the charts in the '8Os. 0n their third album, Pyromania, the band reconciled new wave melodicism with heavy metal and catchy hooks without compromising any of its edge. The album has sold over 1O million copies, due in part to heavy rotation on MTV. But even without their ubiquitous television presence, anthems like 'Rock ...

High 'N' Dry»rank: 3184by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :Although it's difficult to remember through the smoke of Pyromania, this 1981 album, the quintet's second, hoisted Def Leppard to the apex of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Building on raw metal anthems, the band adds subtle melodic touches, catchy guitar riffs, and simpler lyrical themes. Producer Mutt Lange, a longtime associate of AC/DC, absorbs these pop-oriented changes without severely blunting the metal ...

Yeah!»rank: 4127by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :0n their highly anticipated new album, Def Leppard have created a heartfelt and hard rocking tribute to their musical heroes of the late 6O's and 7O's - the Kinks, Badfinger, T. Rex, David Bowie, Sweet, Roxy Music, Mott the Hoople, Free, Faces, and Thin Lizzy. Recording essential versions of the music that influenced their youth, the band have brilliantly merged the 'Now with the ...

Euphoria»rank: 26692by: Def Leppard
0ur opinion: :Tongue firmly in cheek, Def Leppard vocalist Joe Elliott once referred to his band's wildly successful anthemic hard rock as 'deep and meaningless.' lndeed, while peers of the Sheffield punters were scrambling to embrace successive waves of punk, new wave, alternative, and post-whatever, the Leps stayed true to their arena-rock roots and became one of the most successful, if least hyped, bands of the 198Os ...
