DEF LEPPARD will release their new album, “Diamond Star Halos”, on May 27 via UMe.
The follow-up to 2015’s self-titled LP was written by the band over the past two years and it features 15 tracks, including the anthemic, stadium-ready singles “Kick” and “Fire It Up”, with guest vocals from Alison Krauss on “This Guitar” and “Lifeless”. The album title references T.REX’s “Bang A Gong (Get It On)” with nods to T.REX, David Bowie and MOTT THE HOOPLE across the album, which mixes the sound of DEF LEPPARD’s classic spirit with modern fire. The 2LP black vinyl features a black-and-white cover with color logo, packaged in a gatefold sleeve.
“Kick” can be streamed below, with “Diamond Star Halos” now available for preorder on the DEF LEPPARD web site in a variety of formats, including a deluxe edition, two-LP vinyl, digital and more.
