DEF LEPPARD Drop Video For "Fire It Up" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Wednesday, June 1, 2022 @ 12:49 AM Stadium Tour With MOTLEY CRUE Kicks Off June 16th - advertisement - Ready to ignite 2022, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame®-inducted icons and rock music legends DEF LEPPARDd return with their twelfth full-length album, Diamond Star Halos [UMe], out now. It marks the band’s first new work since 2015’s chart-topping self-titled, Def Leppard. The band also recently debuted the music video for their song “Fire It Up”. Watch the video on KNAC.COM HERE. To herald in the arrival of the album, DEF LEPPARD played an exclusive, intimate show at the Whisky A Go Go in Los Angeles as part of SiriusXM’s “Small Stage” Series. On Wednesday, DEF LEPPARD performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live. This summer, DEF LEPPARD will co-headline the massive 36 city The Stadium Tour with MOTLEY CRUE joined by special guests POISON and JOAN JETT set to kick off June 16th in Atlanta, GA. Over the past two years, DEF LEPPARD recorded Diamond Star Halos simultaneously in three different countries. Without the pressure of timelines or deadlines, they focused their creative energy into delivering 15 essential and meaningful tracks that are a mixture of classic DEF LEPPARD meets modern fire. Thematically, they nodded to their earliest collective influences such as David Bowie, T. Rex, and Mott The Hoople, among others. The title itself notably references T. Rex’s “Bang a Gong (Get It On)”. However, they didn’t embark on this musical journey alone. The multi-Grammy award winning and legendary artist Alison Krauss lent her pristine vocals to “This Guitar” and “Lifeless”, while David Bowie pianist Mike Garson performs on “Goodbye For Good This Time” and 1“Angels (Can’t Help You Now)”. Check out the full tracklisting below. 2022 is the year of DEF LEPPARD. TRACKLISTING "Take What You Want" "Kick" "Fire It Up" "This Guitar" [feat. Alison Krauss] "SOS Emergency" "Liquid Dust" "U Rok Mi" "Goodbye For Good This Time" "All We Need" "Open Your Eyes" "Gimme A Kiss" "Angels (Can’t Help You Now)" "Lifeless" [feat. Alison Krauss] "Unbreakable" "From Here To Eternity" Back to Top
