Seriously, Def Leppard. Yes, they sold a lot of records. One could argue that Pyromania was a decent and influential album. I would argue that influencing the hair metal generation was akin to releasing the plague but that's my $.02.
But holy shit they should precluded from any accolades due to that Hysteria album. Wow! What a piece of shit. Please go listen to Pour Some Sugar on Me and tell me it's not one of the absolute worst songs ever made.
Rage Against the Machine doesn’t get in but Def Leppard does. :rolleyes:
Yes, I know the R&R HoF teeters on being a joke but that won't stop my rant. :-)
I don't follow pop culture, nor do I particularly care about the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame, but I knew this thread would be about Def Leopard before I opened it. I never got the appeal. I cringe when I hear them on the radio.
