Sign In 0 out of 1 users found this helpful Def Leppards third album is a solid effort , in my opinion noth quite as solid as High and Dry. I feel this album shows where the band was comming from and what its finnal destination is I would not waste money buying any of their albums made after this as they are all sugar coated pop crap.

If Michael Jackson hadn't released Thriller around the same time. This album would've been #1 on the billboard charts. This is the way Rock N Roll is meant to be. Now a days we have too many winers. I think this album is their best to date. Yes, Hysteria is really good. But, this is what established them as 80s hard rockers. Was this review helpful?

Ric Allen's accident that caused him to lose his arm only set them back four years...but it was a LONG four years. They redeemed themselves ten-fold with 1987's "Hysteria." Then, tragedy struck all over again when guitarist Steve Clark dies, laying them low again for five years this time. When 1992's "Adrenalize" was released, they were off and running again. Not quite the same, but still strong. 1993 saw "Retro-Active," an archived look at some stuff that was intened for the 1987 album that didn't make the cut, their "first" song, and other cool stuff no one had ever heard. 1996's "Slang" was the first album with the new guitarist, Vivian, and was a bit of a departure from the norm. 1999' s "Euphoria" was a little bit more "back-to-their-roots," and 2002's "X" still manages to move mountains in its craftsmanship.
This is probably the most popular album. If not, then it's 1987's "Hysteria." But back in 1984, if you didn't know who Def Leppard was, you led a VERY sheltered life. If you hadn't heard of them before that time, you certainly found out then. There is not a bad track on "Pyromania," and should be ranked as classic by now.

"Photograph" and "Die Hard The Hunter" are sang in such a ungodly and painful like register but alas all Rock 'n' Roll requires such pain I guess from time to time otherwise critics other then me may look down upon it... Was this review helpful? Sign In 0 out of 2 users found this helpful I was in jr. high when my older brother bought this tape. And no, music cds didn't exist yet. This album (this song in particular) shaped me thru high school and into my working career. Although I only listen to Def Leppard on ocassion (once a week) I still hold the group in a special place in my heart. Few bands have experienced the internal losses like Leppard and still they came out fighting even better than before.<br> Their music and their videos are cutting edge in their genre.<br> LONG LIVE LEPPARD Was this review helpful? Sign In 1 out of 3 users found this helpful As the first hard rock/metal album I ever bought, none could be a better selection than Pyromania. From ";Rock Rock Til You Drop"; to the end, the songs grab you by the throat and make you want to listen again and again. ";Photograph"; is my all time Def Leppard favorite to this day, as this was the song that sold me to this group. Even ";Action! Not Words"; (on the flip side of the Photograph 45) is worth the time, as they all are. And I'm not easily impressed by an entire album, but Pyromania is one of the few exceptions. Mutt Lange gained popularity as a prolific producer with this record, as he did with Foreigner 4 and Heartbeat City (the Cars), and many others. If you don't own a Def Leppard album yet, get this one. Was this review helpful?

From the softer Photograph to the heavier Rock till you Drop this album is one to treasure. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1 out of 3 users found this helpful Just the best...And they're from across the hills in Sheffield, but I won't hold them being Yorkshiremen against them. Damn, they could come and take a pee on my front door and, as long as they were playing this CD, I'd still forgive them.You Americans will never understand how much this lot mean to us Brits... Top band. Top album. Was this review helpful? Sign In 2 out of 3 users found this helpful Posted: 2/10/2003A review of Pyromania by mike4awesomebill93471 Without the originality and creativity of Pyromania, hard rock would have been baseless and lacking the energy and passion needed to furnish a strong standing. It becomes apparent that Def Leppard stretched themselves to develop an album that would have an everlasting mark on rock n roll. Simply, while the band shaped hard rock with Hysteria, Pyromania layed the foundation. Every song was a cunning, powerful, seductive, sensuous, rough edged masterpiece to inevitably become a classic. It appears impossible to find songs that match the intensity and passion of FOOLIN, PHOTOGRAPH, TOO LATE FOR LOVE, BILLY'S GOT A GUN; and most of all, the most dominating and powerful hard rock song to date, ROCK OF AGES, which was a rock n roll tribute song bound to get you on your feet. This song is one hundred percent everything that rock n roll stands for. This band will have a claim on the soils of music history, to be rock legends in their own right. Was this review helpful?
