    New Fan

    Heavy Metal Thunder ...All the classic songs rerecorded with the current line up. The songs are heavier with better production. Gives a great taste of the true classic era songs.

    mid-period Saxon?

    As a Saxon fan from the 80s I stopped buying saxon releases after Destiny. I would stay clear of that record until you catch up with all the other records that you missed out on. I started to buy Saxon records again after I kept reading how great Lionheart was. I finally picked it up and was...

    Dio vs. Ozzy?

    RJD has one of the best voices in rock n roll . Ozzy is more of an entertainer and showman than a true singer.

    Saxon - Dogs of War. Any good?

    I think as good as wheels of steel and denim and leather were for their time......they lack the power of the newer releases that the band are putting out now.

    Rainbow, Sabbath, Dio.... can this man do no wrong?!!

    I cant get enoght of Rainbow ,especially with Dio on vocals. Stargazer,Kill the King, long live rock n roll ,16th century greensleeves, some great 70s classic rock tunes ...very underappreciated IMO.I I wouldnt say im huge into Sabbath, but I prefer Dios sabbath over Ozzy. 'Heaven and Hell'...

    Corpse Bride the movie (link)

    i thought sleepy hollow was a great modern day Hammer movie and i love most of Burtons work. POTA could have, and should have been better....but it was still a good film.Its nice to see Christopher Lee working again ,as he has a voice in The corpse Bride as well as his part in the chocolate...
