Pyromania Superior to Hysteria
Random Item #1: Which Def Leppard album is superior?
jakethrash swears that 1987's Hysteria is it.
I, on the other hand, am certain that 1983's Pyromania far surpasses Hysteria in awesomeness, with 1981's High 'N' Dry being second most awesome.
Since Def Leppard is apparently no longer available on iTunes or Amazon MP3 Downloads (except newest album Songs from the Sparkle Lounge), I had to resort to buying 2005's Rock of Ages: The Definitive Collection on CD.
According to this definitive collection, Pyromania (10-song album) and Hysteria (12-song album) each have seven songs each: Photograph, Foolin', Rock Of Ages, Rock Rock ('Til You Drop), Too Late For Love, Billy's Got A Gun, and Die Hard The Hunter from the former; Pour Some Sugar On Me, Love Bites, Animal, Rocket, Armageddon It, Hysteria, and Women from the latter.
High 'N' Dry has six songs represented: Bringin' On The Heartbreak, Switch 625, Let It Go, High 'N' Dry (Saturday Night), Mirror Mirror (Look Into My Eyes), and Another Hit And Run.
So I put it to you, oh gentle Friends List, which Def Leppard album shall rule them all? Bonus: list the three best Def Leppard songs EVAR.
What genre do people think Def Leppard belongs in? The CD is coded as Metal (that's how it's listed on iTunes) but I think it's just good ole Rock.
I'm pleased with the Definitive Collection that it has Switch 625 play immediately after Bringin' On the Hearbreak no matter how it is order listed on iTunes.
