Review

Def Leppard's "Hysteria" is a juggernaut of an album, unleashed onto the world on August 3, 1987. Born out of sheer determination and grit after drummer Rick Allen's horrific car accident, which cost him an arm, this record oozes both defiance and victory. With Robert John "Mutt" Lange's production magic, the album fuses irresistible hooks with rock-solid grooves. Clocking in at 62 minutes, it serves up colossal hits like "Pour Some Sugar on Me," "Love Bites," and "Armageddon It," proving the band can nail both epic anthems and soul-stirring ballads.

Smashing the charts, "Hysteria" hit number one in the US and UK, cementing Def Leppard’s status as rock gods. It has moved over 20 million copies worldwide, becoming the band's best-selling album ever. The legacy of "Hysteria" was celebrated in grand fashion during their 2013 residency at The Joint, captured live in "Viva Hysteria." It’s not just an album; it’s a roaring comeback and a high-octane reminder of what sheer will and raw talent can achieve. - Jaxx
