Def Leppard announce release date for new album

Hard rock legends Def Leppard have announced their upcoming self-titled album will be released on October 30th.

This is their first album since 2008’s ‘Songs From The Sparkle Lounge’. The album ‘Def Leppard’ will feature 14 new tracks, including the single ‘Let’s Go’. The record was produced by the band themselves alongside producer/ engineer Ronan McHugh.

The entire album was recorded in front-man Joe Elliot’s garage. This is what the Sheffield icon had to say about the new album:

We got together to see what we had with maybe putting out a three track EP in mind. All of a sudden we had twelve songs on the go, and two more would come just a few weeks later. It’s the first album we’ve ever made with no deal in place & no one looking over our shoulders so the freedom was immense & I think you can hear it in the songs.

Def Leppard Track-listing:

1. Let’s Go

2. Dangerous

3. Man Enough

4. We Belong

5. Invincible

6. Sea Of Love

7. Energized

8. All Time High

9. Battle Of My Own

10. Broke ‘N’ Brokenhearted

11. Forever Young

12. Last Dance

13. Wings Of An Angel

14. Blind Faith
