Review: This Album Influenced That Album – Stone Temple Pilots Influenced Def Leppard
Chosen by Scott Gregory
In this episode, Darren, Scott C, Alain, and Scott G close out our series of four special episodes where we select two feature albums and discuss how one may have been influenced by the other in some form.
Overall, it was pretty obvious that Def Leppard was looking to tap into the current Grunge and Alt scenes to try and update their image and explore a a different type of production. Some of us could really feel a direct influence from Stone Temple Pilots, while others were thinking more of a Collective Soul vibe.
As usual, we had different opinions on the various qualities of the album, with one particularly strong voice in dislike of the Def Leppard album. Tune in for all the takes and a special rundown on what next month’s anniversary episode will look like!
