After the triumphs that were Pyromania, Hysteria and Adrenalize, what has gone wrong with Def Leppard? Slang is a weak album, which without their previous performances, wouldn't have even got a look at the charts. When a sample filled title track is the best cut from a guitar based rock band, then really it is a disappointment. Although many people said that The Lep's had become formulaic in their writing, at least it rocked, which unfortunately this album does not.
If you were thinking of getting this to add to your DL collection, listen to Hysteria and imagine all that it isn't. Then save your money.

I'm afraid I have to disagree with this, although it's taken me a few years to work out that this album is actually rather good ... I'll have to write my own op on it explaining why :)
