- Description:
- Def Leppard: Joe Elliot (vocals); Phil Collen (cockney rap vocals, guitar); Rick "Sav" Savage (guitar, bass); Rick Allen (drums). Additional personnel: Phil Nicholas (keyboards); The Sideways Mob (background vocals). Recorded in Holland and Eire. Personnel: Phil Collen (guitar, acoustic guitar); Phil Nicholas (keyboards); Rick Allen (drums); Pete Woodroffe (programming, sequencer); Sideways Mob (background vocals). Audio Mixer: Mike Shipley. Liner Note Author: David Fricke. Recording information: Eire; The Netherlands. Photographers: Pamela Springsteen; Ross Halfin. Released nearly five years after the world-dominating, multi-platinum success of HYSTERIA, Def Leppard's ADRENALIZE was a poor candidate for success. Surprisingly, considering it emerged in the wake of both the grunge explosion and the alcohol-related death of Leppard lead guitarist Steve Clark, the album topped the charts. Hits like "Let's Get Rocked" and "Stand Up" delivered the same combination of fist pounding arena rock and smooth power balladry that characterized the group's biggest hits, but with an even slicker sheen. The last of Def Leppard's Mutt Lange-produced efforts, ADRENALIZE brought one chapter of the group's history to a close, setting the stage for the stripped-down sound of the follow-up, 1996's SLANG.
