A new lyric video for this song was released via YouTube on 2nd October.

Track 2 Dangerous was premiered on 16th October via the Billboard website.

Classic Rock recently revealed the front cover of the Limited Edition Fanpack released in the UK on 30th October.

The album recording started in February 2014 when the band thought they might record one or two songs for a possible online release.

They ended up with 12 in that first session and decided to make a full album. This countdown tells the story of the album over the 2014/2015 recording period as told by the band in various interviews.

"It's that time of night!. Good evening. Yes, I do sound very jolly don't I. I'm jolly because we have finished the new album. Yes, well apart from the mixing of it. We have sung our last word, played our last solo, hit our last drum. It's done!. And it will be out later this year. Looking forward to playing a few tunes from that later on."

"When we got back together last May to work more on those 12 songs, we wrote three more. So you know we had this pool of 15 songs knocking around of which you know 12, 13 or 14 will make the album no doubt. But it's a - it's got a bit of everything. It's got some stuff that will be instantly recognisable as Def Leppard and it's got some stuff that's just us stretching our wings a little further than normal. And making a record that people of our mature age should be making today you know. But it rocks. It's a real good record."

"We actually literally just finished the new album. We started working on it about a year ago. We've done it over three instalments of several weeks at a time and we recorded in Dublin. I gotta say first and foremost, this is - in the 23 years I've been with Def Leppard this is the best record that the band's made. So we're really excited about that. It covers all the bases. It's got the rock element and it's got all the other different styles that Def Leppard has done. So it's unmistakably Def Leppard. But very strong but yet very diverse."
