Dodgy album titles of our time

Def Leppard's new covers album is going to be called "Yeah!". Urgh. I'll still buy it though.

Interesting .....going with there roots

Very cool tracklist, I have to say.

And I quite like the album title. Although it'll probably be a record number of reviews that have the headline: "No!" if it turns out shit.

Total Rock panned it before it had even been finished. I'm going to go out on a limb here (and hey, I said Angela would go early from BB and guess what..?) and say that this album is going to suck-diddly-uck. Def Leppard doing "Kick Out the Jams"? Come the fuck on!

Or 'Roxanne'?!

 

[Spiff]

Anybody singing "Roxanne" is shocking. God I hate that song.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I hate what Viv has become.

 

[Spiff]

I still think Viv should have joined Maiden and Adrian joined Def Leppard. That would have ruled.

That said, Viv was great at the Brisbane gig back in 1992.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

It would have been pretty cool.

Roxannes a great song dont knock it ................

 

[Goreripper]

Or 'Roxanne'?!

Oh Christ I didn't even see that on the track listing. There's no way Rick Allen could play that and do it justice, even if he still had two arms. Or even three.
