Grand Design

Viva La Paradise

in a 12-year lifespan, grand Design have never tried to hide an obsession for Def leppard. The fact that this, the quintet’s fourth album, has a song entitled rawk ’n roll Hysteria, says it all, and the swedes’ transparency, as well as their sense of fun, also speaks volumes. Be warned, though, that Pelle saether’s high-pitched vocals are likely to be a deal-breaker.
