these special edition cds need to stop. so pointless to buy a new version of the album to get an extra 4 songs. as for the video, i thought it was pretty funny, though i don't ever needto see adam in drag again. that was scary

I think it's safe to say, without even watching this video, no one (in the history of the world)is more metal than Ronnie James Dio.
Suck it Ozzy.

Nobody listens to the metal bits in this band's songs. They just wait for the choruses (strictly 3 singalongs per album). That's why their shows are so boring.

their shows are incredible, but only if adam is playing. i caught the tour with dragonforce and it was horrible. then i caught them at warped last week and they were back to being incredible

by the way, you are right about no one paying attention to the metal in their songs. they really aren't anything more than a heavy screamo band

At Download in June there were like 30,000 people watching them, and it was like "Let's talk til the chorus" then everyone stops and nods along. Comedy.

They used to be better live. Back in the golden days

i listen to them to all the "metal bits" and i like, and you said nobody listens to them. and since when are there shows boring. where do you get your facts from.

Dude, that video kicks so much ass. And the song? Well, it's a kickass version of a kickass song. And they're still awesome live. And if nobody listens to the metal parts? That would be the audience's fault. As far as the guitarwork? Who cares about guitar work if it sounds good? Honestly.

i dont know who told laurence fishburne this was a good idea, but id rather watch the 3rd matrix than listen to cowboy curits and his group of fuckwits desecrate a classic.

not good. they took out that whole "galloping horse" feel that made metal like this interesting.

The dude in this band is one of the worst singers ever. His screams are generic as well. The music is bland also. BOOOO.

Hah I don't care if the cover sucked, the video was badass. Not taking yourself seriously is the only way they could pull this off.
