The second re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary American Heavy Metal band.
When Dio's debut album "Holy Diver" landed on the shelves of music stores, people were absolutely blown away by it. The guitar harmonies, Ronnie James Dio's pitch-perfect tenor, and amazingly well done song compositions were all unbelievably good and stand tall even till this day. Dio shows his devil's horns to the universe once again with his second album. His unique sounding vocals dominating each and every song. There are a lot of similarities to "Holy Diver", but there are some subtle differences, too. The end result is almost equally impressive, though, and "The Last In Line" stands as one of the highlights of Dio's career.
The first thing when listening to this release was the fact that the songs are much faster. The opener "We Rock" is one of the best openers you ever heard. It just takes hold of you and rocks the hell out of you. The riffs by Vivian Campbell are very well done again, this time taking on more of a 80s Metal approach, than the Rock influenced guitar riffs we heard on "Holy Diver". His guitar work really shows his abilities to draw you in to his leads and solos. Dio's vocals are amazing as always. He sings with a lot of emotion and instantly makes every song have a memorable chorus, which is always important for this type of Metal.
The production, considering the time and the technology available, is excellent. You can hear all the instruments perfectly at all times.
The album was certified Gold (500000 units sold) by the RIAA on September 12, 1984, and was the first Dio album to be certified Platinum, achieving the feat on February 3, 1987. In the UK, it attained Silver certification (60000 units sold) by the British Phonographic Industry, achieving this in January 1986, at the same time as “Holy Diver”.
This is an album of classic Metal greatness, well worthy of the attention of any fan of Speed, Power, Progressive or traditional Metal.
