he sure is powerful the Ripper, but not my favorite singer
the riffs are killer!

 

[Iced Dog]

The riffage is damn good...the chorus could sound a little better, but I like the overall song so far.

 

[Iced In Flames]

Its the same thing from the Iced Earth site.

It's interesting...

 

[anonymousnick2001]

...but will take some getting used to.

The chorus is super-cheesy sounding, and the riffage is old and tired.

Of course, Richard Christy owns the set, although he is forced to play boring material.

Ripper sounds weird. His best vocal performance was definitely on the live Priest CD.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

The album's supposed to be about American history, and it won't work if the album sounds like Euro power metal on speed.

 

[Iced In Flames]

Very good point. Sounds Helloweenish once again.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Very true, very true...

 

[-Rivfader-]

I loved it.

 

[Rottuated]

I loved it.

Me too. I thought it was badass, and I can't wait to hear the full version.

Just got my copy in the mail....DAMN!!! Good to see a singer like Owens found a good home in Iced Earth. This E.P. smokes....can't wait til the new album!

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Each to their own...

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Ripper sounds weird. His best vocal performance was definitely on the live Priest CD.

A-fuck-men. Live Meltdown has got to be the most underappreciated live album of all time...not only does it have an amazing vocal performance, but the band totally reinvents their old classics. Heavier, faster, far better drumming; Priest at their heaviest. Great shit.
