This Album sucks ! don't waste your money .Definitely the worst album Def Leppard ever.Free Music Review: "Go" buy this
Hit: 5 Stars
This is an upbeat hard rock album, back towards Def Leppard's early years. The best song is "Go", possibly the hardest thing they've ever done, similar in structure to "Rocket" but a very political song. The band also shines on "Bad Actress", a song poking fun at our pop culture today. The song moves fast, hits hard, has an amazing guitar solo and makes you sing along. Other gems are "Tomorrow", song about living for the day, "Cruise Control", about the psychotic mess of a terrorists mind, "Gotta Let It Go", strong vocals, cool guitars, and "Love", a balladesque song that picks up in a terrific blast at the end.
You got to this page for a reason, make the purchase. Def Leppard always produces quality that you can easily sing along to. Its too bad they released the two weakest tracks on the album, "Nine Lives" and "C'mon C'mon as singles. When will this band get the stones to release their politically brilliant songs like Go, Paper Sun, Gods of War, etc.?
Free Music Review: The Leps are still on top.

This album has some good, old fashioned Def Leppard sound. Easily up to par with "X" and "Euphoria." Several songs will ranked high and played regularly on your iPod. It's nice to have another great and original Def Leppard album in my collection.Free Music Review: Def Leppard and Britney Spears on tour soon in your city!

Just when I didn't think Def Leppard could become more of a pop band than they were on "X" along comes the new disc. While it is not a terrible album, it shows the band moving further and further toward a pop sound that sounds nothing like their 80s heyday. This is actually the first Def Leppard album in recent memory that had a track that I absolutely hated. "Love" has to be the worst track ever recorded by these guys. I think the band needs to go back and listen to their 80s output along with Euphoria before putting out the next album. That is if they want to keep saying their new albums are in the vein of their previous rockers. I would love to know where all the rockers are located on this disc according to reviewer J.C.Amos. He was either listening to a different album than I was or is completely tone deaf.......Free Music Review: Good, but the first thing in 6 years?

Let me start by telling you im a die hard Def Leppard fan. I have been a fan through thick and thin from 1983. I have stuck up for them in the 90s, and had been there when they had everyone beat. Even in my 40's I still purchase all material, and see them every time there in town!
I have been lookinf ofr new music from them for the last 5 years. It is always, another 4months, then another year because of this album or this tour. So finally, a new record, and all the talk about it, and the time they had to make it, I though this could be the best thing they have put out since Hysteria. Boy, I was in for a shock. Im all for changing with the times and al that. And in most cases, Def Leppard records need at least 10 tmes trough your ears to see if your going to like the record or not. That has been a staple with any of there record from day one. Thre had alays been the 3-4 great songs that you knew would be hits as soon as you listened to them the first time, and the you had to replay the rest of it 10 times to see if therest of it is any good. And most of the time, it is great. Not this time at all. Like I said, I am the one that is defending there music to everyone, so im not one to bad mouth anythng they do, but this is NOT a good record. As much as I hate to say it, it's just not that good. And having 6 years to do it, they should feel ashamed they even put it out. Ther are maybe 4 good tunes on the entire record. And that to me, is a joke to even put something like that out from them after six years!
Im very disapointed by this release, and there is only one thing that can be done if they are going to continue to put out record, AND THAT IS TO BRING BACK MUTT LANGE!!!!!!
They have said all the things they can about not using Mutt anymore, but this time, im sorry, they need him back. It is the only possible way they are going to get back on the map of great Def Leppard music. I mean the first week out, the record came in at #5, then the next week, it came in at #30, and then #100, and then gone. 3 weeks and gone! itunes had them listen in the top 100 records for one week, and then it disapeared! That is flat out sad. At least stick near the bottom for a month or 2. They dont even stay there for 3 weeks. Even here on Amazon,I dont think it is in the top 1000 sold records after 2 months. That is horrible. This is new music, the first in 6 years, and you cant find it on the charts anyplace! Not good at all
Im not going to sit here and bash my favorite group of all time, but im very disapointed at this record. I though i could have been so much more, and everytime they took a long time, it had shown on the new work, because it was great. This is not great, not even good, it ok. Ok is not good enough. Not even close. Guys, the missing piece is Mutt Lange. Just look at your track record. its he only thing you have not tried since you have not used him. From the time he stopped doing your records, the songs have just gone down hil, and every record you try something new, that does not seem to catch on. But every record Mutt has put out from the time he stopped working on your stuff, is another top hit. So, I think its time to start using Mut again ASAP!!!!! Pleaee, its the best thing you can do.
