I remember picking it up and thought what a wierd cover, great album now and you know that most bands first few albums are usually going to be the best because they want to impress and make money and then members leave and they argue etc..etc..etc..

Adrenalize was the last good album I think they put out, the rest after it were mediocre to really abysmal efforts in my honest opinion. But this debut was, actually still is one of the best debut albums to come out. The harder edge music was what did it nicely for me. Bands like this I prefer the 'rougher' sort of production, not as much about it being polished like Hysteria was.

I agree, I think for me is I don't like Joe Elliot, I heas=rd that he had a lot of monru in a bar in Sheffield and when he went there for a "late" drink before the extended hours they said mo and he took his monry out. Maybe rumours but I always found him a bit big headed and I have made my mind up:woot:
