I think they're the finest hard rock act out of the NWOBHM (Tygers of Pan Tang & Samson came close but weren't consistent as DL)... Too bad their last two albums weren't up to their, otherwise, good discography... :(

Here's my list :
    1.HIGH’N’DRY (1981) 95/100
    2.HYSTERIA (1987) 90/100
    3.PYROMANIA (1983) 85/100
    4.SLANG (1996) 80/100
    5.ADRENALIZE (1992) 70/100
    6.ON THROUGH THE NIGHT (1980) 65/100
    7.EUPHORIA (1999) 60/100
    8.X (2002) 45/100

now show me yours ! :D

you really should check more Def Leppard (I know Eyesore is not going to oppose me on this) ! High'n'Dry is particulary awesome ! and if you want a more modern Lep' I suggest you try the much overlooked Slang... :D

I've never listened to a full album, mainly because none of the individual songs I've heard have made me want to.

While i can say i really like this hard rock band,i wouldn't rate them as high as TIE!I'm more Guns'n'roses/Skid Row generation(which shows i'm younger then TIE)!

So here are my ratings:1.High& Dry-85/100
2.Pyromania-80/100
3.Slang-80/100(this one holds a special place in my heart :oops: )
4.On Through the Night-75/100(this one's a bit twisted;lacks High& Dry's kick ass clarity and concision)
5.Adrenalize-70/100(still fun to listen to)

I haven't listen to Hysteria(and the last ones,and Retroactive) yet!

Still a good band ,but G'nR kick their ass!!!!!!

Yeah G N' R kicked ass on their first two releases.

Use Your Illusion.... :roll: .....well I'm sure there was a decent album spread somewhere across that sprawling mess.

There's no "This band fucking sucks. I'm off to listen to Thyrfing" option.

I think if someone finds Def Leppard to be the best rock band ever he particulary enjoys the high-tech 80's sound, the "almost pop" catchiness, the rawking lead vocals and light background vocals etc....

not exactly what Led Zeppelin, how great they are, have to offer ! :roll:

well, it's called taste...
and you're a better music lover than I am if you can say what exactly rock is all about (from the 50's til now)... imo, most of what Def Leppard did pretty much fits the wide category rock is.

I also agree;anyway saying Def Leppard is the best rock band ever seems a tad extreme;it's like saying Helloween is the best heavy metal band ever!
