Def Leppard wishes they sound this good any more


Recommended Posts

My favorite song off of an outstanding album! I've already played this for a few old school rockers that gave up on this kind of music long ago and they loved it. It warms the cockles of my heart to hear new bands putting out great songs like this again. :party421:

Haha. I'm all like, WTF?! Did I miss a bonus track on my copy? But then I looked at the track list and remembered 'My Medicine'. Oh Dan, how you lead us astray... ;)

Is this disc like the CRASHDIET one? People said that one sounded like DEF LEPPARD too, which it doesn't. Is this one more Commercial?

Who the fuck said Crashdiet sounds like Def Leppard lol! I absolutely love the new Crashdiet album with its killer production, big massive riffs - a real rollercoaster of a rock album.

 

But I still prefer Crazy Lixx and I think you would dig this more as well.

 

The song featured in this thread is very Def Leppard sounding, but that's about it for the album. The rest is just very cool melodic hard rock...think a slightly more melodic Skid Row and you wont be too far off. Not really sleaze at all IMO.

 

In particular I think you would love 'Blame It On Love' (almost AOR in style) and the excellent ballad 'What Of Our Love'.

 

Excellent album.

 

Cheers

Yeah, like Glen says, you'll prefer Crazy Lixx by miles, Tim. It is more commercial/melodic than Crashdiet. But still heavy enough. I think I prefer Crazy Lixx, but not by much at all. Both albums are superb, imo.

Wish I could stop bashing Def Lep but...

 

Methinks they need to go and listen to the entire "High n Dry" disc 100 times whilst drinking six cases of Yuengling before recording any more music.

The very last song they should listen to - 'Wasted', from the VERY early days.

That is a monster song to say the least. Kind of like a hybrid of Def Leppard and Damn Yankees as mentioned before with a little splash of Poison for good measure.

Its not a bad song, though nothing special.

I have certainly heard better Leppard sounding songs.

 

Give me Def Leppard any day of the week (well, all except X that is).

Take Def Leppard any day over this.

 

It's good but nothing more, the other songs I heard sound like a poor mans Skid Row S/t.

 

I do like a few songs from the latest releases by Treat, CrashDiet and Reckless love but I think the scene is over hyping stuff and giving out far far overgenerous scores.

It is a great song and the new Crashdiet is a superb disc, but put any prime Lepp track on and....well, you get my point. Nothing else to see here. ;)

  • 2024 HH Donation Drive

    Please support Heavy Harmonies! The donations goal is the out-of-pocket expenses to run the main site and this board for calendar year 2024.

    • Sorry my donation is small, but you know my circumstances Done It will be under name Andrew Sharp  
    • Well... I mean... it's true.   Time once again to nag/beg/plead/insult (wait, what?) to help out covering Heavy Harmonies' expenses. Costs for the site run roughly US$195 a month, roughly the same as last several years.  So when I say "costs", what do I mean? It's the out-of-pocket expenses to keep Heavy Harmonies running: server lease, bandwidth, hosting support, and the subscription for this forum software, domain registration. The 2023 drive did pretty well, reaching 83% of goal of covering the annual costs. Let's see if we can meet, or better yet, beat that goal! The donation drive will run through Halloween, October 31.   Anyone who makes a single donation of $20 or more and has a board username will be added to the group "2024 Donors". This gets you the following benefits: A nice shiny icon in your profile showing that you are an HH Donor for 2024:  An increase in the size of your PM storage from 200 to 500 messages An increase in image attachment/upload storage from 20MB to 50MB Exempt from the search flood control (normally if you try and do a search more than every 10 seconds, you get an annoying little "please wait" message) No time limit on editing your own posts! This will especially be useful for those with trade/sale lists as you'll be able to edit them rather than posting revised versions. A warm fuzzy feeling inside that you are helping support Heavy Harmonies! If you donate $50 during the drive, either as a single donation or across multiple donations, you will be added to the group "2024 Gold Donors". This gets you the following in addition to the above: A bigger, shiny badge:  All your posts will be highlighted, because if you show this much dedication to HH, what you have to say is obviously more more important! (just kidding, but your posts will be accentuated). The ability to create a forum "signature" that will be added to all of your posts. If you donate using buttons on the main site, please put your board username in the notes section, and if you donate from here on the forum, please PM me the email address that you sent the donation from! Otherwise I have no way to tie your donation to your membership here on the board. If you are currently in the 2023 donor groups but don't wish to donate this year (or can't), at the beginning of the donation drive, your group membership features will revert to the regular non-donator membership group. Membership in the 2024 Donors group will last until the beginning of next year's donation drive, at which point you can donate again to remain in the Donors group with the same benefits, or revert back to your current member group. PayPal donation buttons are found at the top of all the pages on the main site and here on the forum on the right side at the top, or if you'd prefer to send a money order, check, or cash (not recommended, but I know some people prefer to do so), you can make payable to Dan Harding and send to: Heavy Harmonies P.O. Box 17021 Urbana, IL 61803 USA If you can't give $20, give $10... if you can't give $10, give $5... it's just once a year. (And if you happen to be fortunate enough to be earning gobs of money, please feel free to give bunches! I'm not opposed to having a sugar daddy... or seven.) As always, your support is greatly appreciated! -Dan
