Def Leppard History
Def Leppard, in many ways, was the definitive hard
rock band of the '80s. There were many bands that
rocked harder, and were more dangerous, than the
Sheffield quintet, but few others captured the spirit of
the times quite as well. Emerging in the late '70s as
part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the group
actually owed more to the glam-rock and metal of the
early '70s -- their sound was equal parts T. Rex, Mott
the Hoople, Queen and Led Zeppelin. By toning down
their heavy riffs and emphasizing melody, Def
Leppard were poised for crossover success by
1983's Pyromania, but skillfully used the fledgling
MTV network to their advantage. The group was
already blessed with photogenic good looks, but they
also crafted a series of innovative, exciting videos,
which made them into stars.

They intended to follow Pyromania quickly, but were derailed when their drummer lost an arm
in a car accident, the first of many problems that plagued the group's career. Def Leppard
managed to pull through such tragedies and they even expanded their large audience with
1987's blockbuster Hysteria. As the '90s began, mainstream hard rock shifted away from
Leppard's signature pop-metal and towards edgier, louder bands, yet the group maintained a
sizable audience into the late '90s and were one of only a handful of '80s metal groups to
survive the decade more or less intact.
Hysteria proved to be the peak of Leppard's popularity, yet their follow-up remained eagerly
awaited in the early '90s as the band set to work on the record. During the recording, Steve
Clark died from an overdose of alcohol and drugs. Clark had long had a problem with alcohol,
and following the Hysteria heyday, the band forced him to take a sabbatical; he did enter rehab,
but to no apparent effect. In fact, his abuse was so crippling that Collen had to play the majority
of the guitar leads on Hysteria. Following Clark's death, Def Leppard resolved to finish its
forthcoming album as a quartet, releasing Adrenalize in the spring of 1992. Adrenalize was
greeted with mixed reviews, and even though the album debuted at number one and contained
several hit singles, including "Let's Get Rocked," "Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad"
and "Make Love Like a Man," the record was a commercial disappointment in the wake of
Pyromania and Hysteria. After the release of Adrenalize, the group added former Whitesnake
guitarist Vivian Campbell. In 1993, Def Leppard released the rarities collection Retro Active,
featuring a new single, "Miss You in a Heartbeat," which scraped the lower reaches of the Top
40. Two years later, the group released the greatest hits collection Vault while preparing their
sixth album. Slang arrived in the spring of 1996, and while it was more adventurous than its
predecessor, it was greeted with indifference, proving that Leppard's heyday had passed, and
they were now simply a very popular cult band. Undaunted, Leppard soldiered on, returning to
its patented pop-metal sound for Euphoria, which was released in June of 1999.
