Sounds like a hot topic mainstream knock-off black clothes individual. You know, the ones the real ones joke about for elitist fun :blah: Those aren't very weird for that genre - should have looked further than your local mall for music :o:

Whoa, you must be hardcore! :rolleyes:

Hot Topic wasn't even around then dude......we're talking about the mid 80's...

Where I grew up nobody really listened to Echo so that was pretty obscure.

Remember Bronsky Beat??? I used to listen to them....pulled the tape out a few years ago and couldn't stomach 10 minutes of it :dead:

Hell yeah it did...it's very hard to find a suitable replacement for a singer in a band (I have NEVER like Brian Johnson in AC/DC) and some musicians are impossible to replace (think Les Claypool and dozens of others)...However, Ronnie James Dio was definitely a great replacement for Ozzy...

Dio had a song, "Hungry for Heaven,' on the Visionquest soundtrack. As a grade-school wrestler and Matthew Modine look-alike, that movie and the soundtrack cassette sort of defined my childhood, or at least I wanted it to.
