Heaven and Hell
I’ve been watching a ridiculous amount of Dio footage over the past few days. This DVD is a must-own for any metal fan. Imagine being 65 and getting up in front of a packed Radio City Music Hall and pulling this off… Metal fans are, to say the least, a rare breed. The loss of [...]
RIP Ronnie James Dio
A piece of my childhood died today, as Ronnie James Dio passed away from cancer at the age of 67. Whether it was Rainbow or Sabbath or Dio, his passion for metal was second to none, and his passing marks a sad day not only in the metal community, but the world at large. Damn [...]

To be honest, I’m not very familiar with his body of work, only that he recorded a record with Guy Picciotto of Fugazi that was released this year. However, [...]
