Inspired by a John Roger's post on an old Def Leppard thread in Music Of The Spheres, and by the fact that I heard the song Photograph this morning (and now I can't dislodge the song from my brain....... I keep hearing it over and over and over .......), and by some recent polls in this section, I thought this would be fun.

 

Pyromania was released January 20, 1983.

 

Rush had no album released in 1983, so I chose Signals (1982) instead of Grace Under Pressure (1984).

 

Which album do you think is better - Signals or Pyromania?

I have to think about this myself. I can't give Pyromania a spin so i have to rely on what I remember of the songs on the album. :codger: Good luck to me. :LOL:

Signals, but Pyromania is Def Leppard's crowning achievement. Both albums are excellent works.

Back then I would have definitely gone with Pyromania. Signals would have been too sedate and nondescript for me in '83.

 

I'm not so sure how I should vote now though.

Signals for me. After Moving Pictures, I couldn't wait for it to come out. I also listened to Pyromania a lot. I was the sound tech for a band who had a singer that could actually pull off Foolin'. Ahhhh....good times....

I can't decide.

The strongest songs on Pyromania are NOT the hits.

"Comin' Under Fire" "Billy's Got a Gun", "Die Hard the Hunter' are epics...........

 

Always wished DL went with more long form songs, but Mutt Lange steered them toward 3-4 minute hits....

 

I think these albums are more equal than i previously thought

Signals. I don't like Def Leopard.

 

But maybe with my recent love of AOR I should return to them.

Signals easy. Not a fan of Def Leppard anyway so it really makes this one easy... :)

Signals for sure. I'd choose it over High 'n' Dry, too, which I think is better than Pyromania.

The only Def Leppard album I own.Very Good,but not as good as the superb Signals!

Easy Choice then!
