We might be chalk and cheese musically, but I’ve been listening to Bono’s audiobook of his biography [Surrender] and I’m nodding along. ‘Yep, yep ... That’s us too’. Trying to get a record deal in 1979, putting your first album out, negotiating Sheffield as we were, and Dublin as they were. They were parallels to a point with how a band fights through to become the band they become. I see parallels – it’s the period. I dare say, if Dave Gahan from Depeche Mode had an autobiography, I’d be going ‘yep, yep, yep ...’ Same with Simon Le Bon, Steve Harris of Iron Maiden. All these bands started at the same time. And, funnily enough, are still going.” Adrenalize was released on March 31, 1992. In Rolling Stone, JD Considine wrote: “There’s no overriding concept to the album, no sense of the group confronting its demons or wrestling with the problems of the world; instead, what we get is an unending string of energetic, hook-heavy, gosh-we-luv-’em songs about girls. A perfect Def Leppard album, in other words.” The coroner’s report, dated February 27, cited the cause of death as “respiratory failure” due to consumption of “an excess of alcohol mixed with anti-depressants and painkillers”. What haunted Elliott was the call he made to Clark on the day before he died. “I got his answering machine,” he said. “That killed me for weeks. If I’d spoken to him, maybe it would have changed the next twenty-four hours…” Elliott might not have cried when Steve Clark died, but he did as he said that to me. This was also the band's first album since 1981 recorded without longtime producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange. Instead, the band took matters in their own hands and produced the album themselves along with longtime engineer Mike Shipley; [7] with Lange credited as executive producer. [11]

I know it’s a terrible cliche, to say this is what he would have wanted ... We genuinely did think Steve would have wanted us to carry on. He wasn’t in a great place when he died. He’d been through rehab. He was a self-proclaimed alcoholic. We knew that. He would say, in his more morbid periods, ‘You guys would be better off without me’. We would rally around and go, ‘No, we wouldn’t – we don’t want to be without you’.” So much emotion went into White Lightning. “By the time we put it to bed it was like we’d done group therapy,” Elliott recalls. “After that we needed something completely ridiculous.” On March 31, 1992 Def Leppard released the album ADRENALIZE. The album debuted at #1 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart and is certified 3x Platinum by the RIAA. Crank it up all day with us!! Offiziellecharts.de – Def Leppard – Adrenalize" (in German).

Taylor Swift’s album 1989 is called 1989 because that was the year she was born. Throughout 1988 she heard our music in her mother’s womb, non-stop. Her parents are big Def Leppard fans. Someone came up with a laptop to us and say, ‘Have you read this interview?’ It was with Taylor who, even then, was pretty big. She had been asked, ‘Would you ever consider working with another band?’ She said, ‘There’s only one band I would ever work with – and that’s Def Leppard’. Def Leppard decided to take matters into their own hands and co-produce, along with engineer Mike Shipley, while placing Lange in the role of executive producer. Elliott described it as the “biggest risk” they’d taken. “But we went in with our eyes wide open, confident that we could do it,” he explained.
