TSO is a bit more classical inspired, right? If that's the case, I think I'll like that as well... headbanger

Re, Def Leppard:

Pyro was the beginning of their more "poppy" sound. Still a great record but I prefer the more metal sound of High n Dry.

TSO:

Yes, they are much more classically inclined; also more bombastic and theatrical sounding.

To me its easily there best one, just so many songs I love on it. I didnt really fade out until Hysteria, but High N Dry, at least to me is superior to Pyro as well.

Im also surprised Im the only one who voted for TS' Under The Blade.

I see you've already gotten lots of suggestions but these would be my picks for each band...

Def Leppard - HIGH-N-DRY

Dokken - BACK FOR THE ATTACK

King Diamond - FATAL PORTRAIT

Savatage - Jon Oliva vox: POWER OF THE NIGHT; Zak Stevens vox: EDGE OF THORNS

Stryper - AGAINST THE LAW

Twisted Sister - YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK N ROLL

W.A.S.P. - THE HEADLESS CHILDREN
