When a band’s goal shifts from striving to make a good rock album to trying to come up with songs that might get played on the radio, something gets lost. And when you factor in the odds of trying to get a rock single on the radio as opposed to a ballad, you can see why more and more of their songs start slowing down. And this is what has happened to Def Leppard. They’ve lost their edge. In fact the only thing about them duller than their edge, is this cd. Now I’m not saying that this cd sucks. It’s very… nice. It’s just boring. Now if you like Def Leppard, you’ll probably like some of these songs, maybe even all of them, but in my opinion, it’s all just too much of the same thing and I’ve heard it before. --Scott
