something i forgot about 80s metal no one does preludes anymore miss this album and edge of thorns ....sorry to say this style of metal is lost for ever
First Power Metal song written and recorded in Drop C! It was hard to capture the lows like the bands of today, but listen to the clean ending of the song with no distortion and you can hear that low C. I know Black Sabbath was C# in like 1971 (that’s also proto-Metal Classic rock) I’m talking 80’s Metal. Thanks Dean🤟🏻
When someone asks me to recommend a Metal song so they can get a sense of the power and feel of the genre, I recommend this and Accept's "Balls to the Walls."
I remember giving RIP Magazine holy hell because they had wall-to-wall columns about Kurt Cobain passing but couldn't take six seconds to even mention Criss Olivia's name. Gutter Ballet and Edge of Thorns will always be in my top ten albums of all time.
I love telling Trans Siberian Orchestra fans it is a heavy metal band started by the original singer before he died... his dream to see the two come together.... thank you for having this 👍
Jon Oliva (the original singer) is still alive. Paul O'Neill (producer for savatage and writer for lots of the lyrics) was the one who died. Both Jon and Paul were the masterminds behind Tso, though it was more Paul's baby
Saw Savatage open for DIO in Cleveland Ohio around 1987 at Music Hall. Still have the drumstick that stuck to my chest after being tossed from the Savatage drummer. Fantastic show.
