Maxim - Joe Elliott Interview Quotes
New Def Leppard Album
"It’s called Def Leppard, which we’ve never done before in 35 years. We went into the studio to come up with one or two songs, and ended up with 14. We liked everything we did. It’s the most honest way to make a record. Nobody tapping their watchface, pointing at the clock. We just expressed ourselves the best we’ve ever done. I think it shows in the grooves. It's as diverse as anything we’ll ever make, but it still sounds likes us."
Emm Gryner Duet Album
"When I’m at home in Dublin, I’ve got a home studio because I’m usually making music, either writing for Leppard or Down and Out, my side project. I’m working on a duo album with a Canadian songstress called Emm Gryner. Me and her are attempting to make kind of a 2015 Hunky Dory album, kind of like acoustic glam rock. I scream my balls off on stage, so the last thing I’m gonna do is scream at some nightclub to order a drink. I watch a lot of movies."
