The only reason I would believe Dio is power metal is because of the choice of fantasy and mystical lyrics, and songs like "Killing The Dragon" with their upbeat tempo and vocal stylings (albeit a dark lyrical concept). User:Vegetaman 15 August 2006
Let me say something about this guys. the word ... mean LORD..in italian!
I am making Dream Evil the article about the band Dream Evil and switching the album to Dream Evil (album). --Sn0wflake 04:53, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Hey folks, contrary to what some liner notes say it's "Craig Goldy" not "Goldie" - the original "ie" was added by Wendy Dio back when Craig was first brought on board, because she thought the "ie" sounded younger. --EvilCheeseWedge
Why hard rock? Were not at least the 5 first discs power metal: melodic, minor (not major), fantasy/mythological words etc.?

[edit] Power Metal??
Dio is not power metal. --EvilCheeseWedge
It NO power metal. NOT AT ALL. NONE of Dio's Records was in power metal style.
Of course Dio is not Power Metal, removed it--Neo139 20:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
Looks like the reference creeped back in. I'll be taking it out. Teh aar0n 04:21, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] tense
given that it is now june 06 and the evil or divine album is out, should the paragraph about the An Evening w/ Dio tour's tense be updated to reflect past instead of future?
[edit] South Park episode
Was that really RJD's voice in the South Park episode? I've never seen it myself, but my brother did and he told me RJD's character has a funny voice. Infinitrium 02:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
No, it wasn't his voice. User:Vegetaman 15 August 2006
[edit] Charting
Why the were UK chart positions removed? This site isn't used exclusively by Americans, and Dio were very popular in the UK in the 80s at least (And unlike in the US, had some Top 20 albums!)... is this denial, arrogance or someone thinking that makes it look tidier? User:AdmiralvonAxehaufen 22:00, 06 August 2006 (GMT)
I think it should be added back. User:Vegetaman 15 August 2006
[edit] Possible trivia?
I don't know where I saw this before, so unfotunately there won't be a source, but if you flip the DIO logo upside down it spells out "DEVIL". This of course being interesting seeing as how Dio has often times had opposites in his titles - Evil and Devine, Live/Evil (with Black Sabbath) - this being DIO vs DEVIL (GOD vs DEVIL)... I won't add it, but if anyone wants to please feel free. Here is the image:

It works best with the cover from the Dream Evil album. Vegetaman 03:50, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
DOESN'T SAY DEVIL.
[edit] clean-up
This article needs a clean-up. The whole article is basically the intro section, which is supposed to be short. Someone please do this, as I do not have the time right now. Also, I think a "Dio discography" page should be created. Good idea? --141.209.196.70 01:48, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Awesome. --LifeEnemy 05:54, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Why Does The Link To Dream Evil link go to the band and not the album?
Down in the Discography when you click on Dream Evil it takes you to the band and not the album. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Puppet funk (talk • contribs) 23:25, 19 February 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Only the pic that shows the inverted Logo saying Devil
I seriously don't see the word Devil, it seems more like you think It could say that and your imagination makes you think it to be true but Ie really only see A D that looks more like an O an E and and upside down D. OED =/= Devil maybe if you made each part a separate color or something. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.182.251.58 (talk) 07:11, 11 March 2007 (UTC).
