Ki's Journal for Terrible Albums
So, I wrote a really snarky point by point "review" of ELP's Love Beach in my journal, and Trollheart said something like... Quote:
So sit tight, it may get rocky in here. This is going to be so much fun. |

Hell and damnation! Where are my lawyers when I need them? What do you mean, you can't copyright a vague idea?? Pah! What am I paying you overpaid Harvard dropouts for? What ever happened to the spirit of free enterprise? Hmm. Sank off the coast of the Congo, you say? All hands lost? No survivors? Excellent! Still, it's not good enough! I should be able to do whatever I like! Well, looks like you win this round, Mister Ki, but that's all right. I could crush you like an ant, but I'll just bide my time, let you twist in the wind ... ah hell with it! I'll just crush you like an ant! What? Threats? Oh no, you misunderstand me my friend. Charles Montgomery Burns does not make threats, oh no... BWA HA HA HA HAAAAAAA!

While I don't have that strong of a judgement, I'm going to have to kind of agree with Trollheart on this, and I will say that Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules showed that Dio's style was right for a band who had to get rid of their original lead singer that lost it by 1978 - a move that seriously saved both the band and Ozzy when you look at the results. Look at who else took the mic - Ian Gillan was a good vocalist for Deep Purple and Gillan, but only OK for Sabbath and the others who followed in his path like Glenn Hughes and Tony Martin were professional but not too distinctive. Although I am more of a Classic Era Sabbath listener, I will give credit to Dio for actually having what it takes for their style. Dehimanizer may not be much by comparison to the first four, but it's much preferable to something like Seventh Star.
Although it's a 1992 album, things could have been much worse. That "Black Sabbath With Tony Iommi" Seventh Star era was very worrying in my book. |

^To the both of you, i'll just leave it at the fact that I don't think Dio and Sabbath work together well. They just don't. However, in my other journal, I will be writing about Rainbow in response to my hate for this album under the Black Sabbath discog.
