Aw man! Now we can't ever be friends again, TNG... Def Leppard (note the spelling!) was "the end of real heavy metal" to me and all my metalhead friends.

They marked the turning point from the hardcore "real" metal we loved, of Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, (early) Metallica, etc, and inaugurated the era of Motley Crue, Ratt, Whitesnake, Night Ranger, and all the other radio-friendly "girly" metal with pointy guitars, hair spray, and makeup.

(Seriously though, "On The Road" is a GREAT rock album. I just hated every single other song they ever wrote. Can't tell ya why... they just always rubbed me the wrong way.)

Lol. I was 11 years old. I haven't listened to DL on purpose since I was 13.
