I've been a fan of Def Leppard for about a decade now and have no shame in admitting it. In fact, their album Adrenalize was one of the first Cds I owned, and as far as rock and rollers go they have nothing to apologize for. Say what you will, but there was alot of good music that came out of the 80's and DL was one of many 80's artist's whose music I bought without question. This of course until the release of Slang, but let's move on to happier times. My faith has been fully restored with their last album Euphoria and their latest. X contains the usual fun-rockers with good vocal harmonies that have become the bands standard. Notable songs include the epic Bon Jovi-esque ballad "Long, Long Way to Go," the "Armageddon it"-ish "You're So Beautiful." Or typical fun Lep songs like "Gravity" and "Torn to Shreds." This album is sure to be another classic. Unfortunately, of all the great material on this record, they chose the worst song "Now" as the albums first single. Go figure.
