After all the problems that Def Leppard had prior to this album, it is amazing that they managed to release an album. Somehow, they did, and this album was a success all over the world. They managed 6 singles from it in the UK and managed to reach number 1 in the US with a few of the tracks. Hysteria and Armaggedon It are the highlights for me, but all 12 tracks stand out. Just writing this review makes me want to dig it out from my record collection and listen to it again. Although not as heavy as there previous releases, it has the perfect balance between being heavy metal, but also appealing to the general public. They’ve never really matched this album since and I don’t think they will. If you want a classic in your collection, this is the one
