This week we venture a little out of our comfort zone, as our guests Francis Grenon and Jeff Snow play hooky from THEIR podcast The Sonic Temple and bring us Def Leppard's 1987 release, 'Hysteria'. Produced by rock production legend Robert John "Mutt" Lange and taking over three years to complete (during which time drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in a car accident and famously soldiered on), the album went on to sell over 20 million copies worldwide and spawn 7 hit singles. Take that, haters...
