The Ripple Effect: The Music Commentary Radio Show  

Most loyal waveriders will already know how I feel about this monstrous platter of devastating old school metal. The anticipation had all been snatched away the moment I included this disc on our year end Best of Heavy Rock List. What may surprise you, however, is how this juicy disc made it onto that list in the first place.

Having been contacted by Heavy Metal Addiction to join in the mammoth collaboration of hard rock bloggers year end's lists, I dug through all the beefy metal that had plopped onto my desk over the course of the last year, and (after much hard elimination, soul searching and crying) selected those ten discs that just rocked my world like a megaton bomb. With that task all done and in the hopper, I popped on over to the gym to keep my body in racing-fit, Ripple condition. Needing a good metal fix while I threw some (in my mind) heavy weights around, I pulled Bible of the Devil up on my ipod and was quickly floored. I mean mouth-open, weights-dropping-on-my-toes, face-etched-in-agony, floored. Rushing home, driving everyone in front of me off the road, police lights glaring in my rear-view mirror, I sprinted to my computer to change my list before publication date; just knowing I had to squeeze Freedom Metal on there somewhere. It was that f'ing good.
