it's odd,
the other day i found a old guitar magazine with a iced earth interview in it, it was published right after ripper joined...
and jon was talking about how much he didn't like horror show.
he said it "lacked the passion i expect from iced earth"...or something like that...but it still baffles me on how he could say that,
i mean i LOVE the power matt's voice has behind in such songs as damien and wolf...
i mean how could jon not see it?
idk...

Eh, I was expecting something like SWTWC, but Horror Show is still a very good album. _________________ I will devour, I will divide. TheComingCurse, your anti-Christ, I am the watcher's eye.
honestly for me,
horror show has a better impact...plus it was also my first Iced Earth album. _________________ I cut you once,I cut you twice you're my midnight sacrifice.
I like the horror schow a lot, it is a great and powerfull album with good ideas and nice riffs....
maybe jon was a little bit confused at that time, you know it was the "ripper" thing, jon needed time to find out that matt HAS to be his only joice, so...
I mean, jon IS iced earth, if he said it like that, he probably meant it, but you all know jon had something like a hard time after matt left and he said a few things that changed afterwards. maybe he thought about it at that time, but it doesn't mean that he still things like that! even if, its his right to cause he wrote the songs and so HE knows best, what the songs mean for him and iced earth _________________ be truly yourself,

Horror Show is my second favorite album by IE [next to NOTS]. This is their first full power metal release [not many thrash influences in their music anymore, in contrast with SWTWC and BO]. That's why I think Jon was unhappy with it. _________________ Fallen from grace cuz I've been away too long

i never thought about it like that,
but it still has alot of thrash elements to it such as jack and a few others...
i guess he jus had to get used to the idea?
I guess. I could be way off. All I know is that this is their first actual power metal release. You can tell because if you listen to HS and then, let's say SWTWC, there is definitely a difference between music styles. [I think it's because Schaffer switched from BC Rich to Gibson guitars].
So it's all pretty much a hypothesis. _________________ Fallen from grace cuz I've been away too long

that's true,
i didn't even think about that...
plus didn't he switch from marshall amps to larry? _________________ I cut you once,I cut you twice you're my midnight sacrifice.
