1.5 very poorPABLO PICASSO NUMERO UNO | March 26th 23

slang has no bang

Bump

2.0 poorRobbit | February 6th 17

SLANG finds Def Leppard floating adrift in the mid-90s in search of a new identity. This would seem to be a wise move considering how low they had sunk with the hair metal posturing of ADRENALIZE. While there isn't anything here that makes me that nauseous, SLANG does possess a somewhat soporific effect with it's lack of interesting hooks and ballad heavy track listing. It's a case where the desire for experimentation comes at the expense of leaving behind those key aspects that made the band so interesting in the first place. Instead, Leppard begins to show its limitations by veering too far off the main road in search of a persona while failing to deliver a single song we'd remember an hour later.

2.0 poorAntonius | October 9th 13

The beginning of the downfall starts right at this album. The once glam/hard/heavy-metal/rock band makes an effort to conquer the 90s with a new style and approach to their music. Unfortunately, the fail miserably.

3.0 goodFernando Alves STAFF | March 21st 12

Leppard's attempt to reach the new 90's audiences. Some interesting moments however Slang's musical direction remains unfocused.
