This is definitely DL's worst release since 1980's "On through the Night" and it might not even be as good as that one, but the truth is that even at their worst, they find a way to make some truly wonderful music, as in the beautiful "Long Long Way to Go" and the irresistably catchy "Everyday." However, this album is still chock full of filler and includes two rather pathetic stabs at modern pop music in "Girl like You" and "Unbelievable," making it a major step back from the return to form of "Euphoria."… Collapse

A late-career classic which only gets better over time.

Too much cheese, not enough content. I've always hoped Def Leppard would return to their High "n Dry period for inspiration, especially after their recent sound relapse. Slang was a breath of fresh air, for it's stripped down sound and attempt at growth. After two post-Slang meltdowns, perhaps it's time for the Leps try it again. This band is too talented to give into the commercial pressure that has seemingly crippled them.… Expand

I loved the CD. I think some of these critics suck. That album is great. there a couple of song that are not as great as others but i could listen to them all day long. in fact they are all i play. i just click with them. They have been my favorite band since they came out and most of the lyrics touch my heart/soul. They were awesome in concert an aug 1 2003 on joe's 44th birthday. i didn't want it to end and i wished they played more dates near me, i would be there for each and everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!… Expand

A couple groaners lyricly, but overall, I'm very happy with the sound. Why this thing doesn't have about 5 hit single is beyond me...

Well crafted pop indeed. The more I listen to this album the more I like it. If you over analyze this album then your opinion will differ.But the beauty of pop is that it doesn't require an analysis only an open mind that wants to have some fun. This album delivers with a new twist while still staying rooted in what makes Def Leppard a band you can't forget.

Their worst album. I've been a huge fan since their first album and this one just doesn't rate. Hope they keep trying. Euphoria was one step forward, unfortunately, X is two steps back. I miss S. Clark.

I have been listening to Def Leppard X almost everyday since it came out July 2002 and it keeps getting better and better. There are a lot of false definitions of rock music and I'm glad Def Leppard goes against the fakes, pretenders, and phonies.

not so bad, incredible mix and production, but too many ballads; Four letter words introduction is an incredible remembrance to Ac/dc songs, but thank god, with the tradiconal leppardettes armony vocals; i feel they miss the Mutt´s touch in the songs. Its better than euphoria.

i am a long time lep fan. from "on through the night" to today. and talk about dissappointment. this album is mush. remember when they rocked? give me something between high and dry - pyromania. and then we can all rock rock until we drop!

I love the entire mix.. plodders? ..no way! The ballads are as good as ever. The tempo in these songs are set just fine. Upbeat.. and a faster tempo for their next album would be a plus. Overall this album is a perfect 10!

This album is very enjoyable. Every song flows well when listening to the whole CD. Definately grows on you!!

The reviewers are way off. This album is even better than Hysteria. Slow starter, but so was Pyromania.

I love the new album, i really enjoy it. I have two, one for the car and one for house. That should say it all.

Def Leppard has once again released an album full of excellent music -- something they've consistently done for the past 22 years. There is no filler on a Def Leppard release and X is no exception. From the ballads to the the rockers, there is something for everyone on X.

It's a good rock-pop album. A powerful mid-tempo collection very catchy... I love Torn to Shreds, You're so beatiful, Scar and Cry.

This album is solid, with great songs, and is the most musically mature album, Def Leppard has done. Is it their signature hard rock? No. But is IS Rock, with some songs that will surprise you.

Very Good Album. It took me a few times to listen through it before I was completley sold on what Def Leppard was selling me. I think this is their best album since Adrenalize and should have more hit singles on it than any of their previous albums. I can listen through the entire album without skipping any songs. Very well produced and well thought out. It is defintley a different direction than I have been used to, but I am completely in love with this album.… Expand

Def Leppard is the best.. this is the best album yet, and im sure its not the last!! LEPP ON!! Chero in Ga

Their best album since Hysteria! Rock on guys.

Very middle of the road. Nothing on this CD is very memorable. I've tried many times to listen to this CD all the way through and like Slang, I can't.
