Our Take

Def Leppard, the legendary rock band from Sheffield, has teamed up with the prestigious Royal Philharmonic Orchestra for their latest album "Drastic Symphonies." This unlikely collaboration takes the band's trademark anthems and gives them a symphonic twist that is as bold as it is unexpected.

From the opening track "Pour Some Symphony On Me," it's clear that Def Leppard and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra are not holding back. The orchestral arrangements inject new life into classic hits like "Photograph" and "Rock of Ages," creating a grandiose sound that fills every corner of the room.

On "Love Bites (Orchestra Version)," the strings soar and the brass section adds a dramatic flair that elevates the song to new heights. Lead singer Joe Elliott's vocals are as powerful as ever, effortlessly blending with the orchestral accompaniment to create a truly unique listening experience.

While some purists may scoff at the idea of a rock band collaborating with an orchestra, "Drastic Symphonies" proves that sometimes the most unexpected partnerships can lead to the most thrilling results. Def Leppard and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra have created an album that is as audacious as it is entertaining, showcasing the enduring appeal of the band's legendary catalogue in a whole new light.

Overall, "Drastic Symphonies" is a bold experiment that pays off in spades. Def Leppard and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra have crafted a one-of-a-kind album that is sure to delight fans of both rock and classical music alike.
