Let's rank Ronnie James Dio, #13 Lutw_0005

After the tightest race we've had so far, 1990's Lock Up the Wolves wins 12th place. This is Rowan Robertson's claim to fame, and especially the opener Wild One is a classic Dio track. The album is a little less accessible than the few prior to it, and slower. Slow, moody. A step down from the classic era, but it's a unique piece of history. And that cover art is awesome.

Strange Highways and Magica pushed it to a tie-breaker the last round. But which way is the next vote going to go?
