I quite like Pocket Casts and Overcast. Maybe check one of the two

I was starting to get into metal and I was always reading heavy metal magazines. One of them had an article about Savatage and how great the band was, and a review of their discography. They had given Hall of the Mountain King, Gutter Ballet and Edge of Thorns 10/10. I was sure I had heard Hall of the Mountain King (the song) before and liked it a lot but had never made the connection until that moment.

Next day I go out and buy Gutter Ballet. Still one of my favourite albums of all time. Couple of days later I also bought Hall of the Mountain King, Streets and Edge of Thorns.

One of my absolute favourite bands, top 3 easily! I wasn’t aware that no one had heard of them before, they were very popular and loved in the country and the decade I grew up in. Criss was by far the most emotional metal guitarist ever!

Come on guys, let’s get some love for Savatage here!

One of the greatest singers of all time, in any genre

Yes! Finally!

Tony Martin era is criminally underrated. Especially Headless Cross is fantastic. I never understood why they insisted on acting like these albums never happened.

I get what you’re saying, although with the years I came to appreciate Born Again more and Seventh Star is a personal favourite (yes, the furthest from what the classic Sabbath sound is considered to be but I adore Hughes’s voice) but they both have been available for streaming. Go figure…
