Def Leppard released a standalone single called “Rejoice”, which, according to the band, was put out to celebrate their upcoming Las Vegas residency, which starts next February.
The band’s vocalist Joe Elliott talked about the track, saying: “This song’s been an amazing journey from concept to conclusion. I said to Phil (Collen) one day, ‘I’ve got this idea for a lyric where the narrator is at absolute rock bottom and wants to rise up to a higher level. Do you have a musical piece that might match with that?’ And he said, ‘As it happens, yes I dom’” he said.
The band has the same line-up since 1992, formed by Joe Elliott (Vocals), Rick Savage (Bass), Rick Allen (Drums), Phil Collen (Guitar) and Vivian Campbell (Guitar).
