Top 10 bands I cursed by becoming a fan:

 

1. CrashDiet -- became a huge fan after Rest In Sleaze is released. The singer than commits suicide.

2. Gotthard -- I was late to get into this and but they became my favorite band. Singer killed in motorcycle accident.

3. Harem Scarem -- Another band I like early on but kinda lost interest in. Got back into them and then they announce a few years later they are splitting up.

4. Star Rats -- A band that came out of nowhere and blew me away with "Rebelution". The following year, the singer departs and their next disc with new singer blows.

5. Jet -- one of my favorite '70's inspired bands who released 2 great discs and 1 subpar one. Then they disband.

6. Dokken -- The legends. Was a Dokken-aholic from 1984-1988. Listened to them non-stop. Then they break-up in 1988 after releasing their best studio disc "Back For The Attack".

7. L.A. Guns -- Another band I loved. And then after the awesome "Vicious Circle", bye-bye to them and hello revolving door at vocalist.

8. Dream Evil -- one of those bands that hit me hard and loved 'em. After 3 excellent releases, the great Gus G. and snowy Shaw both leave. Band hasn't quite been the same since.

9. Ratt -- Another band I totally loved. And then they disintegrated from within. I'm glad they are back.

10. Lillian Axe -- A band that is in my Top 5 all-time favorites. After Psychoschizophrenia, they split for awhile but returned in 2002. Shortly afterword, the great Ron Taylor leaves the band and they've been slow and dreary ever since. The last disc was a vast improvement with a 4th different singer since Ron's departure.

I think of him more as a metal vocalist, because of the heaviness in his voice and the fact that Tytan were a Heavy Metal band. If he was in that list, he'd definitely be at number 1!

 

List of metal vocalists coming up...

I forgot Angela. Hmm...

 

There's a challenge in there. I reckon I could disprove your "never get tired of listening to" theory - I think everyone's King Diamond tolerance has a limit!

The biggest problem I have with King Diamond isn't his voice, it's the fact that some of his songs are a little too 'samey' ... I can listen to 'Melissa', 'Don't Break The Oath', 'Them' and 'Abigail' until the animals of your choice make their way to their domicile, but some of his latter-day solo stuff is a little interchangeable ... not that this is necessarily a bad thing, you understand - after all, a bad King Diamond song is still better than a lot of stuff out there - but it does mean that I sometimes end up with a sense of deja-vu ... ;)

We are currently working on our full length self-titled album 'Fire In The Rodeo' and we are extremely excited for this oppurtunity and we are looking forward for an amazing journey with Lions Pride Music!".   Tracklist: 1. Back For More 2. Red Hot Spicy 3. Sweet Memories 4. Lipstick Mosh 5. Viper's Kiss 6. Cupid Have Mercy 7. You Drive Me Crazy 8. Life In Chains 9. Wings Of Freedom 10. Fire In The Rodeo   Fire In The Rodeo is: Aviroop Basu (Demonskreamer): Vocals Suvojeet Das (FlamexXx): Guitars Shambo Roychoudhury (PoisonX): Guitars Dhritiman Som (Weirdodo): Drums Nilavro Ghosh (Rony): Bass   Hailing from the culturally rich city of Kolkata, India, Fire In The Rodeo stands as a beacon of contemporary Heavy Rock, Glam Metal, and Melodic Rock fusion. Established in 2022 by the visionary frontman Aviroop Basu, the band's inception signaled the emergence of a musical force destined to captivate audiences worldwide. In December 2022, Fire In The Rodeo unveiled their maiden opus, the demo single "Back for More." This inaugural offering showcased their mastery over their chosen genres and provided a tantalizing glimpse into their musical prowess. Building upon the fervor ignited by their debut, the band resounded once again in July 2023 with their second single, "Ready To Fight." With this release, they cemented their status as a rising musical powerhouse, earning fervent accolades from aficionados and critics alike.   Fire In The Rodeo's artistic genesis draws inspiration from the illustrious lineage of Kix, Scorpions, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Ratt, Motley Crue, among other luminaries. Such influences seamlessly intertwine within their compositions, resulting in a harmonious synthesis of sonic excellence. A defining hallmark of their artistry lies in their reverence for the 80s era of rock 'n' roll—a golden age that continues to resonate deeply within their musical ethos. By infusing modern nuances into this revered soundscape, Fire In The Rodeo conjures a distinctive auditory experience that marries the classic with the contemporary.   Their sonic tapestry is woven with roaring anthemic guitars, percussive rhythms that reverberate through the soul, and guitar riffs that scorch with undeniable intensity. Aviroop Basu's vocals ascend to extraordinary heights, delivering a high-octane performance that transcends musical boundaries. The band's chorus lines, irresistibly catchy and persistently memorable, have an uncanny ability to embed themselves within the listener's consciousness—a testament to the compositional brilliance they wield.   Amidst their meteoric ascent, Fire In The Rodeo solidified their trajectory by signing a landmark worldwide deal with the esteemed record label Lions Pride Music in 2023. This milestone paves the way for the much-anticipated release of their debut album in February 2025—an event that promises to redefine the contemporary rock landscape. As the journey of Fire In The Rodeo unfolds, their music serves as a tribute to an era bygone, a testament to the evolution of sound, and a testimony to the enduring allure of rock 'n' roll.

    • I just stumbled across this power trio.... not too bad at all. The vocalist reminds me of a cross between Lex Koritni and Chris Cornell in some tunes. Nice production and good sound. Free CD Here: https://titanfactory.co/pages/the-ride-free-cd?fbclid=IwAR20J27IoN42Cpfe6MtYkliJzynwVuNzY-Urc7hbgfpM5HLZEwYItbGOVQU https://smalltowntitans.com/ https://www.facebook.com/smalltowntitans              
    • Fantastic band. Their last album 2021's  'Witness' was an absolute killer. Hope a new one is on the way.
    • Another big release for me this year. Mine is presently on it's way  from Robby's website. Can't wait to hear it all.
    • I got this as part of their career spanning box set a few months ago and it really is a great album. At present, sittiing very highly in my top releases of the year so far. Top quality stuff
