THE BEAST

On this episode of Rock and Roll Detention, Metal Mayhem ROC hosts Metal Walt, Ian O’Rourke and Vinyl Vince McDowell take a thorough look into some of the major heavy metal bands that replaced their original singers during the 1990s: Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Motley Crue and Anthrax.

We discuss the changing industry and metal scene in the 90s, what prompted each of these bands to change their original singer and how and why the new singers were recruited.

In addition, we examine what impact the changes had on the band, including if the band’s sound changed, what it did to the reputation of the band, and the effect it had on stage and in the live setting.

Also, we take a big look into the new music that made at that time, dissecting many of the albums and songs and we have an honest throw down as to if the new material was better or worse than the prior catalog.

In the end, we conclude on the sustainability and longevity on each of the singers and who fared the best and why, both then and now.

And of course, we settle on what ultimately happened, in the end, for each band to eventually decide to go back to the original Singers: Rob Halford, Bruce Dickinson, Vince Neil & Joey Belladonna.

Another example of a great, unique, conversation filled with in-depth anecdotes and disclosures found only here at Metal Mayhem ROC.

Thank you for the support and remember to always KEEP IT HEAVY!
