The last album of his/theirs I thought was worthwhile was The Metal Opera Part 2 (which I can't believe came out 17 years ago). It's like a joyous Jim Steinman meets Andrew Lloyd Webber by way of power metal kind of album. My son recommended that to me - I only watched the videoclip.

Sounds bloody awful  If you think that sounds bad, try listening to Mille Petrozza out of the context of Kreater, sandwiched between Tobias Sammet, Jørn Lande, and Hansi Kürsch.

 Re: Top 3 albums/discs/vinyl/eps of the week!
It's been a particularly doomy week as I've been doing research for episode 23 of "Metal Academy" podcast which includes a detailed discussion on 1985's elite doom metal releases.  Pentagram - "Pentagram" (1985)  Trouble - "The Skull" (1985)  Saint Vitus - "Hallow's Victim" (1985)
