@Ghaeis666 There is still many bands today that Rock! Granted I grew up in the 80's and Savatage was from Palm Harbor,Florida. I grew up in Clearwater,Fl. the next city over. I saw Savatage two weeks before Criss was killed. I was as crushed as everyone else to hear the news. It is the "record labels" that pressure the "change" in music and style . Also, it was bands like Nirvana that brought an end to this great era of music. Do not mock God, VENGEANCE IS MINE! saith the Lord. Godspeed to you.
@Getchafuck1, at any rate, they were both incredible bands. Rush is probably the most amazing 3 piece band of all time, with Geddy playing enough instruments to almost consider them a 5 piece. Coincidentally, my brother in law and his wife will be having their first kid in a few month's, the name will be Geddy. That's a fan.
They were hair metal early on though, especially Fight For The Rock and aspects of Power Of The Night, but not to say this is a bad thing. I personally love the old stuff, really heavy, sinister and raw. I haven't found anything else like it. Then you get the later Progressive stuff, where as tday34 has mentioned, the lyrics are amazingly in depth.
Certainly not hai9r metal anymore though, not even during Hall Of the Mountain King... :D
@Havik90009 the song not about jesus that ppl pray to. this is a guy name jesus , u gotta listen to the whole album to know what they talking about.. its a story
@horton166 Congratulations. You win the prize for most ignorant post i've seen in days. If you don't know what your talking about maybe you and your "fat fuck friend" should not bother to open your mouths.
Steets is my favorite Sava album. Love the concept. I drive longhaul trucks and when the night comes down, I often put this album. It's as if i'm watching an all time classic movie, I can see the songs in my head. Streets is Epic.
And this song is just one of the best songs ever... killer guitar riffs... face melting solo.. amazing vocals.. bass lines are amazing.. and the drums are GREAT ... Gotta love that drum kit .. looks amazingly bad ass !!
One of my favorite songs of all times for Savatage.
SAVATAGE FOR THE WIN !!!
P.S. Savatage are not only a power metal band.. They are progressive/heavy metal as well.
For the love o god it's NOT ROCK IT"S FUCKING POWER METAL.LIKE Blind Guardian POWER METAL!!!!! NOT Rock.BTW Criss was and will remain a guitar god.He is amazing.
whatup',drummer from Tampa I knew steve wacolz,he came and watched me at many of my shows,I think he was doing some of my moves up there,,,lol,,you never know,,I know this much I wuold have been the only drummer to fill his shoes and I bet he knows that,,i'm 86 grad and a little late,and could not put together something like this myself ,I like steve better than lars and savatage better than metallica
he only actually played all three for a short time. one of them had a target on the side facing him that he used for target practice when he was spitting though :) i only know this because it is on their website under band info
Komoru, you're ignorant. First of all, Savatage was never popular enough to be competition, second of all, hair metal? Really? You must be trolling. Savatage was/is a great band who put out albums full of excellent music, lyrics, storylines, and emotion. Go listen to more music kiddo.
i have also seen posts by middleton and caffery on facebook that they are working (although not as fast as everyone would like) on new material. the posts i saw did not give a time frame, but it is still good news.
Great song from a great album. Criss was one of the best. He could come up with a cool riff & play a burning "melodic" solo! I love how each part of the riff is a variation of the first part. Very clever.
hell yeah!!!! savatage you're the men!!!loved it when you sat in my 1970 camaro in switzerland!!! you rock rock rock!!!
