Heaven & Hell - The Devil You Know

[CaptainDuckroll]

This album fucking blew my dick off. Literally. I had to go find my dick, pick it up, and sew it back on. My GOD!

Discuss.

 

[Captain Beard]

Yes, it is a fine album.

 

[CaptainDuckroll]

Dio is getting old, that's for sure, but what he can do, he makes work very well. It's a rifffest all the way through, too!

 

[Super Mahrio]

EPIC fucken record!

 

[Captain Beard]

Dio may be old, but I can understand him still.

 

[Jace_Mereel]

It's got my interest, but I think it'll definitely grow on me a whole bunch more.

 

[Captain Beard]

You? You're an odd one to like it.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Yeah, it's pretty dandy.

 

[Jace_Mereel]

Why? I love Dio era Sabbath and his solo stuff.

 

[Captain Beard]

I assume you do the smart thing and don't take the lyrical content seriously then if it doesn't agree with belief.

 

[Screaming Mad Dee]

Kickass record. I've listened to it nonstop at work so far this week.

 

[Jace_Mereel]

Meh. I enjoy Warrel's album, too.

 

[CaptainDuckroll]

Awesome cover, too.

 

[Brooks]

Too bad the album isn't as good as the cover.

 

[azal]

yeah, I wasn't too impressed.

Too mid-paced and plodding like the last couple of Dio albums. I like the doomier stuff, particularly the first and last tracks, but it could have used some up-tempo Neon Knights type songs.

I'm sure the songs will grown on me more and more, but I was hoping it would blow me away. I like the new Candlemass a lot more.

 

[Screaming Mad Dee]

I like the new Candlemass a lot more.

I actually do too, but it's pretty close. There's just something about hearing Tony and Geezer that makes me giggle like a schoolgirl.

 

[Jace_Mereel]

A lot of the songs remind of me of Tim Owen-era Priest. Makes it weird. But I can't stop listening to it.

 

[Screaming Mad Dee]

I liked a lot of Tim's work in Priest, which suprised me cuz I worship Halford. I just wish Glenn had seen fit to bring in an actual lyricist for the stuff.

 

[El Stormo]

Yeah, Owens got a bad rap, but the work he did on Jugulator was top-notch. Too bad the lyrics were shyte.

 

[EricT]

Judas Priest has NEVER had good lyrics. The closest to even decent lyrics you can find in their library is on Rocka Rolla, and even then...
