Selon le guitariste Phil Collen chez Artisan News (cf. vidéo plus bas) DEF LEPPARD fera bien son retour en studio cette année. Annoncé pour janvier chez Rolling Stone, en octobre dernier, le combo rentrera finalement en studio pour plancher sur le successeur de Songs From The Sparkle Lounge (2008) dès le 1er février prochain.
Phil: "We've gotta have it mixed and mastered and all that stuff first. But I think all the recording parts are done. Yeah, you know, we wanted to get it ready for the start of the tour, but that's not gonna happen. So it'll be out some time while we're on tour. I don't exactly know when, you know, so we'll just have to play that by ear."
On why DEF LEPPARD decided to go back into the studio and record a new album in the first place:
Phil: "Well, this was really interesting, actually. It's been, like, seven or eight years since the last studio album. And we went in and we said we're just gonna do, like, one or two songs — like an EP or something, or a single. And that first session, we came out with 12 songs. We've never done that. I think the approach was very different. We didn't really have anything to lose. We didn't have a record company or management or anyone breathing down our necks. We got some ideas, and they all worked. And the other thing, because of that… Normally, we'd go in and we'd always find ten reasons why to not do an idea as opposed to just going with it. And this was the first time we've ever just sat around and every idea got a fair shot, you know. Everyone was, like, 'Oh, that's cool. Let's try that.' There was no negative approach to it. So that's something we've never done before and it was so amazing. It blew me away that we got so many things done. And, honestly, I really think this is the best album we've done since 'Hysteria'."
On whether DEF LEPPARD was trying to go back to what the band was doing on "Hysteria" or "High 'N' Dry", or if it was just a natural progression:
Phil: "None of it. We'd just treat each song as kind of a different project. And what's another great thing about it is that we broke it up into three different parts. The initial one, we got the 12 songs, and pretty much, we played in the studio and we kind of played live and we got the essence of the songs down. And, again, [that's] something we don't normally do. And then we went back in May, just before the tour [with KISS]. And also, you have a different perspective on it. It sounds different. You change a few things. And we went back a third time and just kind of finished stuff off in January. And yeah, it's just amazing. I'm thrilled with how it turned out."

Ahead of Def Leppard’s show tomorrow night (Friday, August 28th) in Grand Forks, vocalist Joe Elliott took part in a Q&A with Grand Forks Herald.
Asked about Def Leppard’s new studio album, expected in October, Joe states: “Yeah, it's finished. We're just doing simple, last-minute adjustments. The first song is going to go to radio next month. It's a 14-track, 55-minute album. It's just called Def Leppard because that's what it sounds like. It doesn't sounds like any one specific era of Def Leppard. It's got everything.
DEF LEPPARD's new self-titled album will arrive on October 30 via earMUSIC. The CD was written and recorded in three separate sessions over the course of the past year and a half.

, ils font aussi un trip croisière début 2016.
Je ne vois pas en quoi c'est l'opposé du style de Def Lep puisque le groupe lui même revendique la filiation évidente avec "Pour some sugar on me". Cela dit je n'aime pas trop non plus. Faut dire qu'à la base je ne suis franchement pas fan de "Pour some sugar...". Def Lep était tellement capable de mieux que ce genre de morceau putassier...lelite a écrit :Cet extrait ne m'a pas trop emballé; L'intro me fait pensé au riff de "Pour some sugar on me" et la suite décolle pas c'est très convenu. A l'opposé du style basique de Def Lep !
Le morceau est long en particulier le couplet, Def Lep ' n'officie pas dans le registre "Prog"Dark Schneider a écrit :Je ne vois pas en quoi c'est l'opposé du style de Def Lep puisque le groupe lui même revendique la filiation évidente avec "Pour some sugar on me".
