Thank God we disagree! Or maybe the other guy in this case. I'd try to start a genuine argument, but that's probably my runner up, so it wouldn't sound very genuine.

The 1st four albums are so amazingly killer!! I can't pick one.
I can't trust someones taste in music if they aren't into Sabbath.

even dio sabbath?

Easily the first one for me too.

I actually know two people that say they prefer Dio era.

How bout this for a question:
Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell or Dio's Holy Diver?

heaven and hell

that is my favorite dio era sabbath. neon knights is an amazing song.

savage clone

I love 100% of that song (sabbath bloody sabbath)

they DO tell you that you're on yr own, and they DO fill yr head full of lies, YOU BASTARDS!

I deny the existance of Dio era black sabbath

Easy, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow. Talk about a singer who was on a downward spiral of quality each year!

second that notion

I decided recently that Paranoid is somewhere in my top ten favorite albums ever. I've been rocking it consistently since I was 14. I'm going to have to go with that by default.

it's all fucking great though. I'm going to take a shower and write a paper and listen to s/t... I'm excited.

re: annoying production in sbs, definitely, but the music inside is fucking untouchable and the reason it took me so long to get into it.

there was a time my ex-guitar player was heavily into mob rules and i was like "yeah, it's pretty neat" but now...i involutarily cringe during many dio-era songs, some good stuff there but not that much and they really lost their personality.


yes!! when the whole heaven and hell crap came to mexico everyone kept asking if i was going and i said no, said wasn't interested and responded that i would be genuinely excited if it was a rainbow reunion.

i made children of the grave my profile song on myspace. now i can't stop looking at my profile just to listen to that song. it's weird seeing my picture come up on my tracker so much now.

it's cuz that song rules so much!
