Yeah he does worship at the alter of all things Dio

Just listened to a couple of Jorn songs on YouTube. One song sounded familiar and I assumed it was a Dio song, and was trying to remember what album it was from. Then realised it was a Tarja song.

He’s got a great voice, but he sounds just a bit too close to Dio for comfort.

Kamelot’s new singer Tommy Karevik is more straight ahead metal than Roy Khan was. But if you want today’s Dio, look no further than Jorn Lande

There’s still a lot of good metal out there; but for a lot of today’s bands the emphasis is more on the instrumentation than the vocals. There are only a handful of people who can do the “cookie monster” style really well, and the rest of them all sound the same.

Possibly clean vocals will come back in fashion eventually.

More to the point, where has great metal gone, period?
