About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

While many of their contemporaries from the new wave of British heavy metal and the hard-rock charts of the late '80s have gotten mired in patches of stylistic quicksand, Def Leppard have always managed to sidestep stasis. Their moves haven't always been clever ones -- Slang, for instance, found the band out of their depth, heft-wise -- but they've always been interesting to observe. X will keep listeners on their toes, to be sure, and will also reward those who're open to the Leps' poppier inclinations. Those are aired from the outset here, on the breezy opening salvo of "Now" and on "Unbelievable," on which the band is abetted by producer Per Aldenheim, whose previous credits include Britney Spears and 'N Sync. The gloss on those tracks might come as a surprise to folks who raised their fists to songs like "Pour Some Sugar on Me," but not all of the quintet's tenth outing follows suit: "Torn to Shreds" and "Cry" both coast along on chunky, infectious riffs -- a fine foil for Joe Elliott's amiably raspy vocals. Still, as they pass the quarter-century mark as a band, Def Leppard seem more content to amble along placidly, eking out the sort of tough-guy ballads -- like "Long, Long Way to Go" -- that keep Bic stock in positive territory.

December 26, 2008: i bought this cd when it first came out.What a huge disappointment.I was hoping to hear some new riffs,different drum fills,great rythym lead in's.Instead I am left listening to drippy ballads,repeatable drum beats and fills on every song...they all sound the same..no disrespect to the percussion but come on ...it sounds repetitive through out the whole cd open the ears and truly listen

I Also Recommend: Scars & Souvenirs, Theory of a Deadman, 3 Doors Down.

June 17, 2004: Everything the Leps have ever done is sheer perfection from beginning to end and "X" is no exception. I think that if they were given the chance and the radio play any of the 13 songs on "X" could be top 10 hits because they are all superb. Rockers, ballads, they can do it all and they do it very well. Their songwriting, vocals and music are second to none. I wish they would get all the credit and recognition that they deserve because they are still THE BEST rock band around. I love the whole album but some of my favorite songs are Now, Torn To Shreds, Scar, Gravity, and Four Letter Word. I went to their concert in 2003 and they were amazing! Buy this CD and you won't regret it.
