I LOVED Heaven and Hell as a kid - just awesome stuff. I know it may seem sacrilegious to some, but my favorite version of Sabbath has been with.... Dio... I actually loved "Born Again" as well - I like Ozzy, but like these two singers (Dio, Gillian) FAR MORE. Infinitely more depth vocally and otherwise. Anyway, over the decades I lost interest in hard rock. As I get older I find myself missing the heavy rock I loved as a kid, so I've been adding it back into my catalog of music. For some reason, in light of the current political climate in the U.S. at the moment, and that I'm a very progressive person who feels marginalized, I can't seem to get "I" out of my head. Just a PHENOMENAL song. I thought this was a newer recording - done in the last couple of years. Then I did a search to find out more about the album from whence this came, and behold - 1992 (!). Sounds like he's singing about the current establishment, the right, and their attitudes towards "We The People"... Just blows me away. I think that Alice In Chains lifted some ideas from this record for "Dirt" also - I believe that was a 1992 release as well. If not, they were still clearly influenced heavily by Sabbath regardless.

I think that Chuck's work has resonance in a lot of peoples' lives - his sheer creativity, power, and innovation are inspiring. This is an astounding album, second only to “Symbolic” in my opinion.

I love the Dehumanizer album too. Truly underrated I think. TV Crimes was an awesome single. The album is full of some of Tony Iommi's best riffs and some fantastic solos. Computer God - great drumming, strong lyrics from Dio and just a great track. There are alternate versions of Letters From Earth, Computer God and Time Machine (Waynes World version) which are worth tracking down. I'm a bit of a Sabbath collector and just stumbled across your site. Do you have or do you know if there ever was a second single from this album? TV Crimes was first in the UK but I've picked up a Master Of Insanity cd single. It turns out to be part 1 of a 2cd set but I've never tracked down part 2. Any ideas?? Hello!

My favourite band is Pink Floyd, I discovered it when a was young by my father. And now I know all albums and you must notice that pink floyd did nothing for nothing. Animals changed my life, dogs is ma favourite (read the lyrics). But what I found very funny is that I know much of the stock you're talking about and that mean u have an open mind. You NEED to look for something more strange if u love guitar solos. BUCKETHEAD!! I visited your blog and I found it funny.

Let's hope the new album will be at least half as good as their previous stuff without Barlow. Btw I'm also thinking of that album to check out Spawn comics.

Invictus is an excellent album, but I would go further with The House Of Atreus, and say that that is magnificent. You're right also in that they are far superior to Man-O-War. I disagree with you on one point though. DeFeis isn't just "one" of the best singers around - he is the best! (As a recommendation of a singer who comes close to DeFeis, check out "Distant Tides" by Matt Moliti's Dark Empire). You couldn’t be more right!

I personally love all the Maiden albums, but you are correct the vocals are really buried in the mix. I actually think the vocals stand out better on Brave New World than on the latest Maiden album, A Matter of Life and Death. Even with washed out vocals they are pretty impressive albums. If you get a chance check out my blog at http://progressive-metal-xone.blog and the article "Metal with Meaning". If you like Bruce, I think you really need to hear Russell Allen of Symphony X.
