The last GREAT Def Leppard release IMO.

 

 

 

My fav song is "Comin' Under Fire"....... I just f@#king love that song and Joe is just screaming his ass off in the chorus.

 

 

 

"Too Late for Love" is a close 2nd for me.

 

 

Man, I miss Steve Clark (R.I.P.)

Hmmm... another toughie. Though I loved "Photograph," "Foolin'" and "Rock Of Ages" back in the day, they've all been pretty much run into the ground after twenty-plus years of radio and video play (esp. "Rock of Ages") so I have to dig deeper into some of the tunes that maybe didn't get their due cuz they were never released as singles. I gotta say, I always loved the bad-ass "Billy's Got A Gun"... "Stagefright" is also a classic... geez, there are just too many absolute diamonds on this album to pick just one!!

 

...Okay, I just went "eeny meeny miney mo" to pick which song to vote for and it came out that "Billy's Got A Gun" gets the nod.

I went with Too Late For Love, but I really love Rock of Ages, Rock Rock(Till You Drop), Foolin' and Stagefright just as much. I remember seeing them numerous times in the 80's and early 90's and they always opened up with Stagefright.

Motherfucker of a poll...easier to pick your favorite child than a favorite song from this one. I'm with Fat Freddy on this one...I always liked the deeper cuts, with my faves being "Die Hard The Hunter", "Comin' Under Fire", Action Not Words" & "Billy's Got A Gun"...I guess I'd have to go with "Action Not Words", but damn, the entire album smokes!

After replying to this thread last night I dusted off my Pyromania cassette for the first time in God knows how long to give it some air time... and was dismayed to find that the tape is a scratchy, wobbly, unplayable slab of toast. (A testament to how many times it was played back in the day, eh?) I quickly added Pyromania to my CD "Want List" over on Lala.com and lo and behold, I got a message this morning saying that it's being sent to me already! Now that's what I call service!

Service is one thing, however quality is yet another (and quality CDs these are not!) :)

Hahaha, yes, well, we'll see what shows up in the mail... so far my Lala experience has been more positive than yours, Studboy. :)

Rock of Ages for me. I can't argue with the top runners in Photograph or Too Late For Love. Foolin' shuld get more votes, I was deciding between that and Ages.

 

I'm surprised Comin' Under Fire is doing so well. I never considered that a great tune. I'll have to whip it out right now.

    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
