In Flames - December Flower
So yeah, not a big fan of In Flames. No, not even their early stuff. This isn't really bad, it's just...kind of there. The vocals are kind of shaky. And this is not a case of shoving stupid "melodic" elements into places they don't belong. It's simply that the song writing isn't all that strong. Basically, it isn't doing anything wrong so much as it is doing something right, but not overly well. Still, not bad.
5/10

Alright, managed to get a sub 1 rating. Now let's try for a plus 9 rating.
Dio - Holy Diver
9 plus is no easy feat! 9 itself isn't TOO hard though I guess.
So Holy Diver. I really, REALLY hate the intro. Far too long with absolutely nothing going on. It's one of the most baffling decisions in all of metal, quite frankly. And it's a real shame because the rest of the song is everything traditional heavy metal should be. If neither the main riff nor the "between the velvet lies" section can make you headbang, you may be in the wrong genre, or perhaps you have a serious neck injury, in which case I hope you make a quick and full recovery!
8/10
