I'm an old school 80's fan, but I'm afraid it's a different kind of 80's than you my dear. I'm more of the Cure, Depeche Mode, New Wave fan. The beginnings of Industrial and the whole early goth and electronic movements. Alas the other side of the 80's was not my cup of tea. Sorry I couldn't be of any assistance to you my dear.;)

... if there are any Def Leppard fans still out there, their newest record "X" will definatley change that - it's one of the worst records I've ever heard. They basically took "Love Bites" and re - wrote it 13 or 14 times. ("Love Bites" was a good song I just wish Leppard had never recorded it) On a positive note: their 1999 record "Euphoria" was actually pretty good, if you haven't heard it, find a copy of it, it's probably their best record in over 15 years since "Pyromania" ... but Leppard really needs to retire already!!!

one of heir number lost an arm in a car accident, one of them died, but the worst thing to ever happen to Leppard: their biggest hit ("Love Bites" [and the entire "Hysteria" album]) was also their kiss of death - it killed their career ...

Well.....YES! I love Def Leppard. And just recently saw them. They rocked like there's no tomorrow! Joe Elliot is to die for, and Phil Collens biceps, pecks and ripped abs.....make me swoon


Pour some sugar on me
In the name of love
Pour your sugar on me....

Do you take sugar.....one lump or two...

That song is so f-ing awsome live!!!

WRONG WRONG WRONG You are so wrong!

X is a great release. I like it. It's captures how the band has matured.

Hysteria rocks. It's what brought metal into the mainstream. And that is an undisputable fact!

Vault, their greatest hits compilation remains a top selling album to this very day. A testament to how great this band really is.

Euphoria, yes is very good. But so are Adranalize and Retro Active (the last one that Steve Clark played on...may he RIP).

For your info, the current set list DL is playing is mostly the old stuff---from High n Dry and Pryomania. Switch 625 sounds as good live today as it does on HND. So do all the others!

They gave a kick ass show! Go and see for yourself. As for retirement... Not Hardly!!!!!!

LOL You are too funny. But you didnt bash...and that counts for a lot. I get shit everywhere for liking them, but I don't take shit either. Hey it's all a matter of personal likes and dislikes. I like the sound, and the lyrics.

Ok here's my other list...

The Sisters of Mercy...I love AE to bits, even tho he has recently pissed me off by going bald!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GGRRRRRRR
The Cult
The Cure ;)
The Smiths
Thompson Twins
Billy Idol.....sighs, love those boots, and that snarl!
Peter Murhpy
Love and Rockets
The Mission (Craig era)
Duran Duran, yep even me....hungry like the wolf
Midnight Oil
INXS
Psychedelic Furs....My absolute all time favorites! there's a heart break beat playing down on my street!

I kinda wonder what happend to those sounds. They were so vibrant, and varietal...like a nice wine.

I love 80s stuff.

Def Leppard was great early on. On Through The Night, High N Dry, and Pyromania were all amazing albums (High N Dry is still one of the great rock albums of all-time in my book), but they just lost me on Hysteria (lone exception — "Women"). The last record from them that I bought was Adrenalize, and that was absolutely horrible (lone exception — "Personal Property"). I haven't heard anything played on the radio from any of their subsequent albums. Actually, they were here in Baltimore last night, and the local radio station didn't even play any of their new stuff, which I found kind of strange. It's cool that they're playing Switch 625 on the tour — that's a great "drive fast" song. :)

98 Rock played a shit load of it last nite! They sponsored the gig at Mariner Arena. You should have gone.......

HnD is wonderful, plain old kick ass rock! It's one of my favorites, but you know being a girl, I do like Hysteria...it's got that romantic sound to it.

Good to know. Must not have been while I was on the road listening. It was a little embarassing hearing Detour Dave say "they don't still have that one-armed guy playing drums, do they?" Oy!

I would have considered going, but I didn't know anything about it until around 5:00 last night. Too bad. Do you remember the setlist, by chance? I'd love to hear some old faves like "Wasted", "Sorrow is a Woman", "Lady Strange", "Mirror Mirror", etc. Great tunes.

I like your list of artists, too, PG. Billy Idol and Midnight Oil were two of my favorites growing up. Actually, Billy got me into the Cult when I saw them open on the Whiplash Smile tour. Amazing shows, they were.

Sexual, you and me are peas in a pod. You named almost everyone that I can't get out of the car when their songs come on the radio. I'm a sucker for the lunch hour all 80s requests from 12 to 1 and Saturday nights from 8 to 9 on our local VH1-ish station in town. Can't get enough. Shameless addiction! ;)

Personally, I agree completely about "OTTN", "HND" & "Pyro..." lp's,

as far as "Hysteria" album: "Women" "Rocket" & "God's of War" are the only songs I can still listen to,

as for "Adrenalize" yes, it was horrible: and it was mostly just unfinshed songs from "Hysteria", that record came out in 1992 I didn't buy it until 1995 and that was just because I found an autographed copy of it with two bonus tracks,

"RetroActive" (1993) was good but just a re - release of old b - sides, and "Two Steps Behind" sucks like all hell,

"Vault" ... oh, please ... STILL MORE "HYSTERIA" RE - RELEASES,

"Slang" (1996) ... the band sounds good they just didn't bother to write any good songs,

"Euphoria" (1999) ... good record, no complaints,

"X" should have been called ZZZZZZZZZ ... they've completely lost me with that record, I'll never buy another Def Leppard album again -

I do think Leppard needs to stop putting out records - maybe do a tour every few years, but never do another record again ... they just keep selling out and getting worse ...

For Homer

Planet Girl - 4-18-2003 at 03:07 PM

Homer, you have made several valid points. Here's my response.

X, the latest release initiallly, well, put me to sleep. Literally, I put it on before bedtime...snooze a-amatic. Its' not til 4 letter word do they even Rock. X is one that takes a bit of listening. I do like it. But I like the romantic sappy ballads they do it for me every time. It's just me. Hey I'm a girl!

All the rehash of Hysteria? Yes you are right. But I liked that one, a lot! So did many others...as record sales prove out.

Slang.....IMHO is garbage. It's a grunge wannabe....If I wanted grunge and I don't, I'd be a Nirvana fan. I'm not.
Back to X. I can say the same for X... Boy band knock off. I hate boy bands, nevertheless I like this one. I'm in love, I'm in deep yeah yeah...may have some bearing on why I dig this one so much.. back to those sappy love ballads.

Euphoria..I really like this one. If you are lucky enough to gather up all the extar tracks they are well worth the time.

Adrenalize/Retro....yeah yeah....Hysteria rehashes..but I Liked Hysteria. I mean come on, Desert Song, and Fractured Love aren't kick ass enough for you?


Ok, Two Steps Behind.....Do you NOT have a heart? So it's an accoustical love ballad. It's a really good one. It beats Michael Bolton any day!!! I love this song.

As for touring vs making records. Island, their label SUCKS royally. They are more into pushing that crass piano band from Jersey, BJ! And yes I think over the years the Band has succombed to pressures...(Slang and X). In live performance, I've been to two in the last 9 mos. they kick ass in every respect. I mean come on, what band can pull off TWO guitar solos ....Switch 625 and Disintegrate? in one gig? Utterly awesome live! Which brings me to your last point...mayber they should just tour....VERY good point. Perhaps that's what they should do.


Enjoyed the discussion!

Homer - 4-19-2003 at 11:24 AM

not to beat this thing to death but, on "X", "Four Letter Word" is one of the better songs on that record (It's one of only two songs on that record that I could listen to all the way through, [the other being the first song "Now"]) but it's basically just "Armageddon It, Part II" listen to "Armageddon It." then "Four letter Word" again: same song structure, same basic guitar riff, same everything! "HYSTERIA REHASH PART FIVE"

"Slang" again the band sounds good they just didn't bother to write any good songs for that record. On "Hysteria" and "Hysteria Part II/ a.k.a. "Adrenalize" you couldn't really hear the guitars and drums behind all of the effects! Too much layering and phasing and delays, Elliott's voice was reduced to a whisper on alot of songs, the drums were all done through fairlight computerzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ... oh, sorry I didn't mean to doze off like that. On "Slang" they went back to just guitar, drums and vocals. Period. No remixes, no effects. That's what I meant when I said the band sounds good, but they just didn't write any interesting songs, except "Work it Out" and yes, it was grunge wannabe about a half a decade after grunge faded away ...

what you don't realize about "Adrenalize" (1992) & "RetroActive" (1993) albums is that they ARE part of "Hysteria"!!! Read the jacket sleeve to those records - Steve Clark is credited with cowriting and performing on those songs even though (sadly) he died in January of 1991! The songs on both records are unfinished songs from the "Hysteria" writing sessions, b - sides etc. NOTHING NEW that's why I call them "Hysteria ripoff parts II & III"

"Two steps Behind" was a b - side to one of the singles from "Hysteria" and a bad one at that. No one listens to Leppard because they want to hear ballads they listen to Leppard because they want to rock like "On through the Night", "H N D" & "Pyro." albums did! not to hear ballads.

next:
"Vault ... " wasn't a best of/greatest hits compilation, it was just the singles from "Hysteria parts I & II" "Make Love Like a Man" did not belong on a "best of" record! nor did "Animal" for that matter ...

as far as touring, I definatley think they should NEVER do another record again, just go out and tour every few years, but NO MORE ALBUMS!!!
and by what I've heard about their live shows latley maybe I'd check them out if I get the chance and can afford it - it would be cool to hear some of the OLDER SONGS live again ...

now if they would just do something off of the "On Through the Night" album ...

First. LOL at Doug... For christ's sake, BJ? I'd rather gag on a pill than have to listen to that shit. Crappy piano bands!~


Ok Homer...your points are valid and well taken. I personaly like love ballads. I like the harmonies.

I will give a close listen to what you told me to look for, I got the tapes in my car. And see what I can see. Thanks for the suggestion.

I do agree, DL doing another album.....may not be a good idea. Unless they get another label.

Go see them live, I think you will like it. The HND set list is really good. And I liked it alot better than the Pyro/Hysteria they played at the first gig I saw.

Ok, do you not like Scar? from X? I find that one of the best. And you liked Now? Wow? I wouldn't have thought that.

Banned? That's rather harsh I think since Homer and I are having an adult discussion regarding a band we both like. This is the OFF Cult section isn't it?

Oh and Homer....I never actually bought any DL. I got all mine off the internet! So it just dawned on me, (yeah I'm always late to the party!) what you were trying to tell me!!!!!!!!!!! You are 100% right, Retro and Adrenalize are very Hysteria like. But remember, I like Hysteria. Im really not a metal person, at all, I'm totallly, 1980's Brit New Wave, and ...er,.... a bit Goth in my musical taste. DL is the Only Rock band I like! Oh beside Thin Lizzy. :) But you are right....

Hey I like them. I have fun. I wish they would do more kick ass rock becasue they just have this Sound...which I know you know what it is...that's wonderful. Hey I have had fun talking to you about DL. Take care Homer.

Sorry, what was your name? I digressed...short attention span when I have to deal with people that insult me ( and others) to my face.


I happen to like U2, New Year's Day being a favorite, just remember they sold out TOO!!!!! They suck now!!! and also Simple Minds. I seem to remember seeing Jim Kerr doing his "fairy"dance in those tights sometime in the 80's.

I've got tons of those "Living In Oblivion" cds, not mention watching all of the "I Love the 80's" on VH1. Just can't get enough. Seems like I only buy shit from the 80's these days anyway...just picked up a used Siouxsie "Tinderbox" CD--I have the vinyl , so what a score!:D

I did most of my growing up in the 80's.....

RedVelvet - 4-21-2003 at 06:45 PM

graduated from college in '89. And when someone says "oldschool" in reference to that decade, I immediately think of The Cure, Depeche Mode, INXS, Billy Idol, New Order, Gene Loves Jezebel, Modern English, Psychedelic Furs, Simple Minds, Siouxsie, Bauhaus.......also Black Flag, Fear, Husker Du, Minor Threat, the Circle Jerks, the Dead Milkmen, Suicidal Tendancies, Dead Kennedys.........damn, those were the days!

Ok, now I'm feeling old & nostalgic.

Oh, and Hove, I too own the Living in Oblivion cd's - they're mandatory in the car listening.

Do you remember Wolfgang Press??? I was listening it today and i feel sooooooooo nostalgic. I didn't listen it for about 10 years........

gabewave - 4-22-2003 at 06:17 AM

Damn Linda, you just named everything that mattered to me about growing up in the 80's. FEAR! Damn been awhile since I heard that name.

Remember "Decline of the Western Civiliazation part 1" when Lee Ving kicked that chick in the face. Now that was FEAR. About 8 to 10 years ago I met Lee at a show in Minnesota, they opened the show and the other bands were Fear Factory, Korn, Floatsom & Jetsom, and Megadeth. Lee was very very nice and I had a great chat with him about his work with Dave Mustaine on the MD.45 record. I dislike Megadeth emensly as well as Dave Mustaine (On VH1 he said something about keyboard players not having a place in rock music a la a reference to DEVO) thus shooting him to the top of my Celebrity Dead Poll list. Never underestimatie the power of the keyboard player or the programmer.

Oh well, thank you once again Linda for reminding me of my age and influence.

gabewave - 4-22-2003 at 06:22 AM

Oh and before I forget,

Hove, Romi, Linda, and others of the same blood line musicaly, Andie (Dogstar/Black Angel) sent me the most wonderful book of all time. It's a collection of interviews by Charles Neal with great artists/musicians/performers that were changing the world in the early 80's. It's amazing.

It's called "Tape Delay: Confessions from the 80's Underground" and features interviews with New Order, Sonic Youth, Gensis P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic Youth, COUM Transmissions, etc. etc.) Coil, Chris & Cosey, Henry Rollins, Lydia Lunch, Einstruzende Neubauten, Cabaret Voltair, Boyd Rice, Nick Cave, and so many more I can't remember cause the book isn't sitting in front of me right now. You really must find this book and read it. It is amazing!

Ok, now I'm feeling old & nostalgi

Hey ... You stole my record collection.

Dead Kennedys, Circle Jerks and Black Flag are some of my all time favorites, I grew up with all this stuff, And Still love it all ... Yeah even with all the crackles jumps, fizzing and poping.... It just sounds right that way .... To hell with C.D.s and digital recording. I want my Goddamn warped and scratched vinyl...
Even buying a turn table is a problem now... What the hells that all about?

Ok ... I'm off to mosh with the Jerks

Fix bayonets, check grenades. Got enough bullits? got enough rounds? to wipe out this place.
