It's a great album before Mutt Lange and MTV ruined them.
Did you even listen to that album??
im sure i have heard it, i just cant stand thme bc they get way too much credit... on vh1 when the do the history of metal thing they give more time and credit to leppard than cvh
I'll go with Def Leppard.
I don't skip as many tracks on "High'n'Dry" as I do with "Appetite..."
Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

Gn'R.
ya, I skip more tracks on Appetite.
High N Dry is a great great ROCK album. Appetite is too but I think High N Dry is just cooler, more vintage , old school.
my pick is Def Leppard.

I think people fail to remember that Def Leppard with the duo of Pete Willis and Steve Clark (RIP) was one of the greatest Rock N' Roll bands of that ERA.... they took over as the premiere Rock Band in the UK after Bonham died.
Guns in a landslide.....just mentioning the other band's name nauseates me.....
Guns N' Roses is just a nice kick in the ass. Makes any day a good day.
Love em both! BUT NOT COMPARABLE! 2 different era's and style's of rock n'roll! High N Dry was one the the most UNDERATED ALBUMS of ROCK!!!
looking at some of Axels photos & videos with the band, he had some pretty bad hair doo's ala Poison "Look What The Cat Dragged In", maybe even worse.Originally posted by Redballjets88

to me, that qualifies GnR as a hair metal band. some of the other members had some poofy ones too.
GnR was pop hair metal too. they had very much a pop metal sig in some of their songs.
gnr had more edge, and i hate the singer for leppard, his name slips my mind somehow
ya, sweet child and patience was harder edged than anything def leppard did.
I like GnR too but lets not pass them off as thrash. GnR had alot of soft songs.

BTW:if you like Eat'em and Smile , you cant call Def Leppard pop hair metal crap.
GNR in a landslide....
Leppard were good at their time, GNR were monumental at their time....
Leppard made you excited and turn up the radio, GNR ripped your head off....
Good point.....The Partridge Family's stuff was more harder edged than anything Def Leppard ever did....Originally posted by bru87tr

they musy be pretty stupid there in Minnesota.
No sense of humor?? Lighten up
Easy, I´ll go with High N' Dry. I was never to crazy about GnR
As much as I like "High n dry", it stole all of it`s best ideas from AC/DC 1979-81 (thanks to Mutt Lange).
"Appetite..." maybe isn`t totally original either but does have attitude.
GnR for me.

Sitting on a park bench!
High n Dry is the best album Def Leppard ever did. But I still liked "Appetite" better. That damn slab of plastic got daily airplay on my stereo in the summer of 1988 and probably three times a day on weekends. Of course what else was I gonna play... OU812?? SkyCRAPper??
Eat Us And Smile
Cenk For America 2024!!

88' really sucked though... Guns was kicking everyones ass that year... and that was mostly because there weren't alot of good bands or albums that came out that year.
High N' Dry in a landslide.
Leppard is a total joke from 'Pyromania' to now. But at the time of this record, they were considered a New Wave Of British Heavy Metal band.
I just listened to 'Let It Go' & 'High N Dry' yesterday. Plenty of attitude in those trax.
Hign N Dry & On Through the Night are prime early 80's metal albums.
Their sell-out to MTV was disgusting to watch tho...

Def Lep. I even prefer Pyro to anything GnR ever did.

Oops, forgot about Living Colour... yeah, I actually got that one early, before they broke on MTV, because I was working with all these metal dudes, some of whom also lived right below me in this Hell-on-earth apartment complex. Had stereo wars with them every weekend, and one week I had to ask "Hey that shit sounds great! Who is that? Living Colour? Cool... gonna have to pick that up."Originally posted by WARF

You remember a band called 24-7 Spyz from the same era? Kinda like Living Color, but more hardcore.

I don't remember that.
I did however have to edit my last post calling the band, "In Living Colour" lol.

High N Dry was kinda like AC/DC-lite, in terms of songwriting, production, sound, etc.
Not necessarily a bad thing in a way, and probably the closest Leppard ever really came to being metal, but G N R's Appetite is much better, IMO.
Scramby eggs and bacon.

Leppard weren't as deeply entrenched in the "four-on-the-floor" principle as AC/DC.
And, you sure as fuck won't hear AC/DC doing songs like "Bringin' On The Heartbreak"...
That's like saying you skip tracks on VH 1.... Both are amazing, flawless, records.Originally posted by Coyote
I'll go with Def Leppard.

I never got the comparisons.

Which I do sometimes. Nothing's flawless. Not even =VH=.Originally posted by MERRYKISSMASS2U

I didn`t hear all of those big powerchords like "You got me runnin`" or "Another hit and run" on their debut.
Rick Allen`s drumming is pretty different as well, less fancy stuff like "Rock brigade" and more no frills ala Phil Rudd.
And "High n Dry (Saturday night)" is probably the biggest rip off of "Highway to hell" you`ll ever hear.
Go listen to them back to back and tell me I`m wrong.
Guns N Roses all the way.
Not even a contest as far as my ears are concerned...
These are great threads WARF...
