Tim, I should've tried sending you a Helker track at some point in this roulette. I don't know if you've ever heard the name (not very popular), but they're a heavy metal band from Argentina and the vocalist has been compared to Dio on more than one occasion. While I think Dio is better- better than just about any other heavy metal vocalist apart from Dickinson- this guy is still really strong. Maybe you'd be interested in hearing him sing in Spanish.

Oh my God!! He sounds just like Dio!! Very cool.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Hmm, I don't know what my five artists would be. I have a well-established top three, and then I'm very uncertain about what goes beyond that.

The top 3 would be:
Dream Theater
Nightwish
Coldplay

Right now, I'd probably name these as the other two:
Iron Maiden
Death Cab For Cutie

But I'm not sure.

Lightweight.  I started pre-qualifying bands a couple of months ago.  Already got about 30 that are confirmed good to go, and another 1/2 dozen or so where I'll shart myself if he knows them.

Tim's attempt to spam his own roulette and displace Nem's as the biggest and baddest.  13 more pages to go.   :lol

Awesome.

Brent, 2 questions..
1. At what point did you write off Queensryche
2. How would you rank Ozzy's albums?


Me, I skipped Q2K and Tribe, but I did get OM2. I do have a copy of American Soldier.
And I haven't bought an Ozzy album since Ozzmosis.

Me, I skipped Q2K and Tribe, but I did get OM2. I do have a copy of American Soldier.
And I haven't bought an Ozzy album since Ozzmosis.

Looking at my list I am wondering if KISS should be there actually........my first band and quality over a very long period vs the shorter term perfection of bands like DT .  Would I rather have the KISS discog or a few DT albums that I love?  Tough question but I can't imagine not having Images and Words.

I am loyal to a point but when my most favourite artists release shite I am still pretty quick to switch off , although I always take a passing interest in hope.    DT and Queensryche both have some of the most disliked albums in my collection.   DT got in there almost exclusively based on Images and Words - without that album they're not even close.  Although there's tracks I like on most DT albums I was disappointed to some extent in almost every album after I&W up until ADTOE..........so a long break there.

Queensryche I thought could do no wrong up until Promised Land , which I thought was half decent but a very bad omen.  HITNF cemented that thought and I really didn't bother from there.  Like you I bought OM2 but that's it as far as purchases go , up until their most recent. Oh..........my poor sister gave me Dedicated To Crap for Christmas that year , so I have that too sadly.

Ozzy would definitely be my most played artist ever along with Van Halen.  Like the initial run of Queensryche I loved  pretty much everything from Blizzard to No More Tears and Ozzmosis is also strong, but different.   Like you Tim I really haven't bothered since Ozzmosis.  Rankings are hard ........maybe I'll do Ozzy next in the metal thread.

Tim, I should've tried sending you a Helker track at some point in this roulette. I don't know if you've ever heard the name (not very popular), but they're a heavy metal band from Argentina and the vocalist has been compared to Dio on more than one occasion. While I think Dio is better- better than just about any other heavy metal vocalist apart from Dickinson- this guy is still really strong. Maybe you'd be interested in hearing him sing in Spanish.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfCyIOryOF8

Helker are pretty good - I think I might have picked them up off seneca in another roulette.

I still have so much I couldn't squeeze into this roulette that I would've loved to send..........one of the most obscure albums in my collection has a guy that sounds like the lovechild of Dio and Gillan (he sounds so much like both at various times  :omg:) singing for Rainbow/Purple.    The only reason I left it out is because I wasn't sure how Tim feels about bands that ape other bands so closely , no matter how good they are.

I'll save it for TAC v2  :lol
