I don't think DM is that good of an album but it is deffinitly a step into the right direction. And that direction is to get as far away from St. Anger as they can. God, that album sucked. But it still sold millions.Babylon wrote:Right, and DM songs sound awesome live.hiro23 wrote:I think metallica like many other bands experiments with certain things to see what works, sometimes they end being kick ass and sometimes they lack something, I know people keep knocking on the production however I think Death magnetic is an awesome album.

Guitars:Jens Ludwig(Edguy,Avantasia)
Guitars:Yngwie Malmsteen(Solo,ex-Steeler,ex-alcatraz)
Bass:Markus Grosskopf(Helloween,Bass invaders,Avantasia)

Re: Who would be in your all-star metal band?
I'm bored, so here's my suggestion for (second) Rainbow-reunion line up that actually could have chance of happening:
Vocals: Ronnie James Dio
Guitar: Ritchie Blackmore
Bass: Rudy Sarzo (Would've voted for Jimmy Bain, but I heard that he is not in good terms with Dio these days)
Keyboards: Don Airey
Drums: Eric Singer
Vocals: Ronnie James Dio
Guitar: Ritchie Blackmore
Bass: Rudy Sarzo (Would've voted for Jimmy Bain, but I heard that he is not in good terms with Dio these days)
Keyboards: Don Airey
Drums: Eric Singer
Re: Who would be in your all-star metal band?
Mormegil:actually this line up could possibly work
Vocals:Dio
Guitar:Ritchie Blackmore
Bass:Bob Daisley
Keyboards:Don airey
Drums:Bobby Rondillini
Vocals:Dio
Guitar:Ritchie Blackmore
Bass:Bob Daisley
Keyboards:Don airey
Drums:Bobby Rondillini

Re: Who would be in your all-star metal band?
Would be great one too, but I chose Sarzo and Singer, because I thought Sarzo has, in lack of better word, a very energetic style that I like in Dio amd would bring nice touch to Rainbow. And I never really care much for Rondinelli, but that might be just because Difficult To Cure and Straight Between The Eyes aren't exactly my favourite albums from Rainbow.hiro23 wrote:Mormegil:actually this line up could possibly work

Oh and no Deep Purple songs, 20-minute solos from Blackmore or post-Dio -era songs. This way they could play most of the songs from first three albums on every single gig.

Re: Who would be in your all-star metal band?
actually I don't see them doing any of the later songs as that doesn't seem to be Dio's kind of thing, I was just thinking of surviving members of the band is all.

Well, somehow I like the thought about Dio Singin "I Surrender" but I agree, they should do the same thing that Sabbath did with Heaven and Hell: Only play songs from the Dio Era.

Just thought of a strange, a bit extreme and funny line-up

Bass: Jonas Hellborg (Art Metal, and played with SHAWN LANE! and John Mclaughlin)
Keyboard: Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater)
Drums: Aquiles Priester ( ex-Angra, Hangar)
Couldn't decide a singer, maybe Tomme Karevik (Seventh Wonder), or MAttias could sing.
Any guitar freak here who is going to Mattias' "Freak Guitar Camp"?

Bass:Gene Simmons(Kiss,solo)
Keyboards:Mikko Harkin(ex-Sonata Arctica,ex-Kotipelto,Cains offering, and some others which at the moment I'm too lazy to look up)
Drums:Scott Travis(Racer-x,Judas priest,ex-fight)
I know I usually throw in a second guitar player however in this case I have heard that Ritchie Blackmore refuses to play with a second guitar player.
