I think I get what Ian B is getting at, but if an example is needed it sure as hell isn't Def Leppard.

Quite possibly Iron Maiden. Or Mythra, Sledgehammer, Girlschool, Diamond Head, Witchfynde...


Diamond Head deffo more musically appropriate to what I am saying (funnily enough I was just playing their White Album). I only used Def Leppard as an example because of the indie single thing and the fact that Peel played it to death (no fool he). They were a very different band back in 78 from the one that got into the clutches of Mutt Lange. Judge them not by their albums! "On Through The Night" is pale shadow of what they were really capable of.
