Def Leppard have digitally released a new song ahead of their summer stadium tour with Journey, including a stop at Globe Life Field in Arlington August 12th
The made-for-stadium-chanting “Just Like 73” features a guitar solo by Tom Morello. It will be out on seven-inch vinyl on August 2nd, and will be available in a special color variant only through the band’s D2C store and in black at all retailers.
Joe Elliott says the song "encapsulates a time that burned deep into our DNA. We wanted to celebrate that very important and glorious time."
Guitarist Phil Collen adds, “When I saw David Bowie on TV between 1972 and 1973, everything I thought I knew about music went from black and white to vivid technicolor. Our song ‘Just Like 73’ represents that awakening.”
And Tom Morello says, "I had a blast rocking a solo on 'Just Like 73.' I played [Def Leppard's] 'Rock of Ages' in my college cover band almost 40 years ago, and here Def Leppard are still killing it in stadiums with a brand-new tune that’s one of their best.”
An animated video for the song will premiere on June 20th at 10am, and the tour starts on July 6th in St. Louis.
