Here's #4 in my series of vs. polls, this time it's the two least favourite Dio albums amoung fans. Which is better amoung the two? 
Ps: Please dont steal my idea such as "breathless" did. It's really pathetic.

Ugh. Strange Highways has two good songs. That's more (infinitely more, even) than the 0 good songs on Angry Machines.
I'd rather listen to Madonna than either of these, actually. |

Oh yeah?? I'll bet that after an entire day of listening to Madonna would make you CRAVE hearing Angry Machines.
Those 2 albums are great and I can't choose which I like more. Depends on my mood for the day. |

0 good songs on angry mahcines? Don't you like Hunter of the heart, or institutional man?

Not really, no. I listened to AM twice through the other day on a long drive. Nothing stands out. Ronnie's voice sounds good. But the songs are extremely forgettable. I barely remember what they sound like two minutes after they are done. All I remember is that there are a bunch of nu-metalish sludge songs and then a piano tune. |

This Is Your Life is one of my favorite DIO songs. I would put it on a 'best of' for sure.

I won't, Ronnie doesn't sing as good on 'This is your life' as he does on other ballads. When he needs to sing even a little higher his voice becomes more raw, and I don't like that. It is a nice song though. But I'd rather put 'Hunter Of The Heart' on a 'Best of' album.

| I love Strange Highways. The guitar is heavier than anything Craig has come up with and some of the best lyrics on it. |

I guess I like it BECAUSE his voice becomes raw. It seems more emotional and intimate. Because it isn't as smooth, it has an honesty that seems to go with the lyrics. Along the same lines, I am able to overlook a lot of the Scorpions awkward lyrics because Klaus' accent gives it a slight charm.
