1.5 very poorDavid James Young | March 1st 10

A landmark, classic album...if Bon Jovi is the closest you come to heavy metal. Cheesy, overproduced rubbish that represents some of the eighties' worst trends. Even Poison did better than this shit. You can pour some sugar on me all you like, but Hysteria is a turd rolled in glitter.

Simply one of the greatest albums of the 1980's. Does include horrid failures like Pour Some Sugar On Me that still haunts me to this day, but in all it is a great album that deserves modern day recognition. Best Track: Gods Of War

4.5 superbGnFnRs87 | May 17th 12

Leppard's most successful album selling over 20 million copies. Given the accessibility of most of the tracks present I can see why. Best songs here are 'Animal', 'Pour Some Sugar On Me', 'Love Bites', 'Armageddon It', 'Rocket', 'Gods Of War' and 'Hysteria'

5.0 classicTheNotrap | June 23rd 11

5.0 classicDavey Boy STAFF | May 3rd 09

Setting new standards in remaining loyal to a band member by retaining one-armed drummer Rick Allen, Def Leppard released their biggest & best album in 1987s 'Hysteria'. Containing the greatest 4 song sequence in musical history, the glam stomp of 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' is ably backed up by power ballad 'Love Bites', rocker 'Animal' and the harmonized vocals of 'Armageddon It'. While the 2nd side does not quite match up, it still betters similar tracks from phenomenal predecessor 'Pyromania'. Enduring, influential and a classic in every sense, 'Hysteria' is quite simply one of the greatest albums of all time! Recommended Tracks: Pour Some Sugar On Me, Love Bites, Animal, Armageddon It & Hysteria.

I wrote many wonderful reviews for this album, but they were all deleted at site. Oh well. Fuck this album, it's shitty, lacking talent, and more. Plain and fucking simple.

5.0 classicDerekWarner | August 19th 07

A pure pop/rock masterpiece. an absolutely brilliant production fused with a fantastic collection of stadium style rock driven pop. This is the definitive Def Leppard album.

1.5 very poorBrainiac | June 11th 07

Hysteria. Number 472 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All-Time list. It's supposed to be the best glam album ever. It's supposed to be wonderful. Well, you know what? It may supposed to be a lot of things, but for one sole reason: It was a hit. Hysteria is not metal, it's not even hard rock. It's just pop rock really. Women and Rocket kick off the album to an average start, but then we get Animal, which is one of my least favorite songs of the 80's. And then we're treated with more and more garbage. Wait, isn't Pour Some Sugar On Me supposed to rock? Well, guess what. It doesn't! It's just annoying pop. To be truthful, the only good song is Armageddon It, and that song is too long to genuinely enjoy. So yeah, Hysteria is a terrible album.
