ONE STEP CLOSER I LOVE THIS TOWN

Maybe more accesible Less of the old school doom

Subtle, emotionally powerful and hugely atmospheric Poor quality production may put some listeners off

Some cracking tunes I'm not overly keen on Dio's high pitchness - think he goes over the top sometimes

Fantastic vocals, excellent songwriting and execution, loads of atmosphere, great lyrics Vocals might be offputting to some

Great value for money 4 cds and dvd set. None
