IMHO they don’t understand the sound had to change to more of synth vibe to keep Rick Allen in the band after he lost his arm and had to go to electronic drums. Of course the sound is going to change, but I always loved it.

    One of the reasons I really love Def Leppard is that they're a true 'band'. It's not all about Joe.
    Pretty much every member of the band is considered a focal point, they all get their stage presence out there, and they all are the show...not any one person. It's something I've always strived for in bands, and had only once or twice out of many, many tries. :-)

    Hey guys, , to me, Hysteria is far and away the biggest selling CD from Def Leppard!! There really aren't any "bad" songs on it!! Six top 20 hits including 4 top 10s(this song peaked at #3 on the Hot 100 in 1989)!! Truly a gem of a CD and this band showed the ultimate in camaraderie by waiting for Rick Allen to come back so that they could finish it as a group!!!!!

    This song came out when I was in high school and my wrestling squad would always come out and work out before a meet to this song. We had it synchronized so that we were doing our running, pushups, stretches, and other exercises in full view of the other team while this song blared on the speakers. Many times they stood and stared at us so long it interrupted their warm-up and it quite frankly scared the hell out of them. I think this song probably got us 12-18 points in every meet that season. A bunch of us got tickets to see them when they came to town. They are amazing in concert! Thanks Def Leppard!!

They even did a few numbers to let us know they were actually singing. I'm sure they didn't sing the whole way because they also did a little performance (not as energetic as the 80's) but let me tell y'all, it was bomb. These guys are like "You could lip sync all the way and I wouldn't care" kind of good. It was nice and they did have that presence.

    The footage from the video is pretty historic... taken from the live concert video "In the round, in your face"... It captured Def Leppard at a peak during the 'Hysteria' tour between 1988 - '89, which was also the last tour featuring original guitarist Steve Clark - the band's rock star, who sadly died in 1991 after a long battle w/ alcohol and drug addiction.
    A lot of Def Leppard songs are prominent from the 80's, but their work in the 90's and beyond should also be check out... songs like 'Tonight'... 'Desert song'... 'Work it out'... 'Promises'... 'Heaven is' ... 'Slang'... 🤘🤘🔥🔥

      Desert Song is amazing, mostly insturmental, but amazing nonetheless. I'd add 'All I want is everything' to the list as well, one of their best slow songs and should be much more well known.

    "Armageddon It" peaked @ #3 for 2 weeks (released mid-Nov. 1988/ probably peaked in early 1989); Def Leppard charted 19 singles in the Billboard Hot 100 between 1983 - 1996; 13 in the Top 40, 4 in the Top 10 featuring one #1 "Love Bites"-- the single released just before this one.

    This video comes from their world tour during which they used the "in the round" like a Shakespeare play; something no other band had ever done before. They said it was an interesting but exhausting experience. So they wouldn't ever do it again. They had realized that at any given moment they would have their backs to some part of their audience. So they had to always be on the move to give everybody their money's worth by getting to see them, which, after all, was why they bought their tickets.

    Fun fact: In the early 80's the arrival of punk and new wave put rock and roll to sleep. Billy Squire was the only new Rock you heard on the radio. Then, Def Leppard hit the scene and WOW, basically revived Rock! Fantastic band and catalog of music.

    I was fortunate enough to see the Hysteria tour when it came to my city in the 80s. I can vouch that the concert was fantastic and pretty much looked/sounded just like this video.
    I agree with Jay that "Armageddon It" has a more "pop" sound than some of their out-and-out rockers, but it was still one of the best songs on this album. Not that there was a bad one on it. (The only one I am at all sick of 35 years later is "Pour Some Sugar On Me," simply because it was played nonstop on radio and in my opinion is the most formulaic song on Hysteria.)
    I recommend listening to the album in its entirety from start to finish, that's the best way to experience it. And that album really is an experience!

      @@markyoung8163, it was Tesla, but oddly enough, I don't have much memory of that. I think my friends and I arrived too late to see them, or see much of them (we had to travel an hour to get to the arena).
      At the time I wasn't a huge Tesla fan and didn't really care, I was apparently only concerned about seeing Def Leppard. Later on I grew to really like Tesla, though, and now I very much regret not seeing them!

    I was at the first concert they did after Rick Allen lost his arm. Early in the show they stopped everything and said that they understood that a lot of people were worried that Rick might had trouble keeping up. They then challenged the audience to clap in time to his drum solo. It started slow and gradually ramped up the speed. The audience didn't stand a chance. The crowd went crazy for a good 3-4 minutes. Easily one of my all time favorite concerts.

    Not sure if y’all know this but one of the reasons Def Leppard is considered a hell of a great band with great members is because when Steve Allen had his accident in 1984 and lost his left arm, the band stopped touring. Even on the heels of their smash album Pyromania they just stopped everything and waited for him to recover fully rather than replace him.
    Allen came back to relearn his drumming an AMAZING 3 months later. He now uses a special pedal set that was developed to allow him to use one foot to drum the left HAND parts. Flat out miraculous all by itself. He plays barefoot now basically out of necessity because of the adaptations.

    They don't show it well, but did you notice the drummer has 1 arm!
    per google- -
    Rick Allen's accident took place on December 31, 1984 near Sheffield, England. He was driving a Corvette C4 at the time and tried to pass another car while speeding, which resulted in him losing control of the car. His left arm was severed from his body in the crash.
    I was in the USAF and got to see them at Castle Donnington Monsters of Rock concert in England, it was his first concert back after the accident. They had two full drum sets on the stage and a back up drummer on the side just in case Rick tired out, well he never did, in fact he kicked bootie, was a great event and one of my most memorable moments so far.
