| 4.0 excellent | Antonius | August 25th 13 | If you wonder why Def Leppard are considered an influential NWOBHM band, this album clarifies the matter. Powerful riffs meet passionate vocals and the English band start to shape their sound. Apart from the classic ''Bringing On the Heartache", songs like ''Let Go", "You Got Me Running" and "Lady Strange" are my personal recommendations

| 4.5 superb | pbass0 | May 21st 13 | Def Leppard BEFORE they started sucking. Everything a NWOBHM album would need: wailing vocals, pounding drums, monster riffs, and intelligent bass fills.

| 4.5 superb | Fernando Alves | February 2nd 12 | One of Leppard's finest moments. All songs are great here but my favourites are "Let It Go", "Another Hit and Run", "Bringin' On the Heartbreak", "Switch 625", "On Through the Night" and "Mirror, Mirror (Look into My Eyes)". A must have to all hard rock fans out there.

| 3.0 good | Isley Browne | April 17th 19 | This album is one of the few last great albums from Def Leppard, theyre probably the most tight sounding of the industry plant hair metal groups (at least in this point of their career)

| 5.0 classic | MaidenUFO | July 23rd 18 | Many people think that Def Leppard are glam and pop rock...but when they hear this album, they change their opinions....By far their best album, has so many killer songs like "Lady Strange", "Another hit and run", "Mirror Mirror" and the best ballad of all time "Bringin on the heartbreak"...A HARD ROCK MASTERPIECE!r

| 4.5 superb | Robbit | May 9th 16 | There is nary a dull moment on Def Leppard's sophomore album. It is chock full of tasty and cleverly crafted
guitar riffs that both sting and satisfy. Mutt Lange's production (and Elliot's vocals) has the band sounding very
much like AC/DC on the surface. Thankfully, these comparisons will quickly evaporate once that Def Leppard is more
than a 3 chord band. HIGH 'N DRY captures the band in a raw, yet inspired phase before the pretty boy posturing &
glossy production of "hair metal" they'd embrace on their following records. While most of the hits at the
beginning of the album, the deeper cuts near the end also satisfy.
Highlights: ""High 'N Dry (Saturday Night)", "Let It Go" & "Switch 666".
