Today we played something from one of my Top 3 all-time albums. The band is now called dios (malos). Before they were called just dios. Ronnie James Dio, the hard rock meathead, sent the band a cease-and-desist letter because he thought the name was too close to his band’s name?Dio.
The first album blew me away. Pure genius. I waited and waited for a second album - hoping for more gold. The album came out, I bought it same day…and cried myself to sleep. I didn’t really cry, but I was really disappointed. They went from this interesting mix of folky, Beach-Boyish, electronic spiced music, to a fairly average sounding rock band. The third album marked a slight return to the style of the first, but it’ll be tough to top their debut.
The song I played was You Make Me Feel Uncomfortable.
