£1 an issue for three months.

Classic Rock is well worth that price. Metal Hammer too, but Classic Rock is better in my opinion.

Ends 18th Jan.

Quite interesting reading that.

David Lee Roth's Eat 'em and Smile tops the most lists followed by Queensryche's Rage for Order.

Monumental albums Master of Puppets, Reign in Blood, Slippery When Wet don't top many lists in comparison to how they might now and Maiden's Somewhere in Time only features on around five lists in total.

I should add, Susan, that those lists are from 1986 not 1987.

Interesting to see that someone's top 3 is;

1. Poison
2. Megadeth
3. Slayer

I mean I like all three albums myself but it seems funny, 'Look What the Cat Dragged In' isn't even that good of a Poison album.

The fact Marko even mentions there might be issues with Tuomas clearly means there were.
Floor seems to very active on solo songs now. Her youtube channel is getting real popular. As you said about Tarja, I think that Tuomas has now lost control of the band to Floor, as in, she is now the main draw for a lot of people to the band.
I don't know where Tuomas thinks he is going with the music. He seems to leaning to orchestral cinematic in the music and including some talking which I am not too keen on.
Has anyone listened to the second disc on HumanIINature? I have not and can only be a once only listen anyway surely?

I've never listened to it either, Dave.

I listened to it once, I thought it was boring. They've done orchestral before so I don't know how it went so wrong.

Tuomas seems to bee on this creation kick at the moment what with The Greatest Show On Earth and the HumanIINature disc.
I just think he is trying to hard to have these great operatic orchestral moments.

To me he's at his best when he writes catchy songs - Nemo, Wish I Had an Angel, Storytime...
