    I have started looking forward to Fridays. I already love KillSwitch and this takes them to an entirely new level. I recently saw Dio on a documentary on VH1….that man is vertically challenged and apparently does not like Gene Simmons at all.

    i love the Dio version. The weird intro with the branches is nearly as long as the song, itself! Way to stretch a budget.

    bs, also the two-dimensional demon-guy is priceless.

    I did, but I now I look forward to it in a metal sorta way. Rare to find a blog where I can enjoy thoughtful religious insight and a dose of metal.

    Bummer, I just watched the Dio video but for some reason the Killswitch Engage cover video is gone from youtube.
