Dio was better than Ozzy. And I say this as a far bigger Ozzy fan than anyone who's about to come to Ozzy's defense.

Dio is dated as fuck imo. He sounds like an absolute cornball and his vocal style died with 80s hair metal. Ozzy is timeless.
Ozzy's somewhat limited ability also gave him more appeal. If BS started with a DIO/Coverdale type from the start they would just be a really heavy Uriah Heep & not as cool
Ozzy is the Prince of Darkness while Dio was like the court jester, or like some of those dwarves kings used to keep around to amuse them, when it comes to Black Sabbath
Tony Martin obviously.
>Dio is dated as fuck imo. He sounds like an absolute cornball and his vocal style died with 80s hair metal.
The fact that you equate Dio's vocal style to anything similar to any "hair metal" proves your opinion is worthless, because Dio was pure trad metal.
Once again, a bigger Ozzy fan than you. Bet you don't even know all the Ozzy era Sabbath albums and have not heard a single whole Ozzy "solo" album.
I wouldn't wish listening to an entire Ozzy solo project front to back on anyone
Try listening to the bark at the moon album on acid on repeat for hours. It changes you.
I think it would be a change for the worse
>Dio
Literally who
This
That's because you're a pleb and you've been filtered. You are a poseur.
If you say so
Better at what, fronting the most bands?
defending ozzy's singing by posting the guitarist

Sabbath with Dio had a couple great album covers i'll give him that
>The fact that you equate Dio's vocal style to anything similar to any "hair metal" proves your opinion is worthless
This is pretty true desu especially considering Ozzy actually spent time in that territory...
Dio has the voice of a god and the soul of an angel with a bright key who can lead us across the rainbow and open the door to the heavens above.
Not gonna get into this debate, but will say that Dehumanizer is the best Dio-era Sabbath
I mean Dio objectively was one of the best vocal talents of anyone in the genre, it's not even to remotely debatable as to who the better vocalist was, Dio was a better singer in his fucking 60s than Ozzy was in his vocal prime
Dio has a cringy fag voice with lyrics that befit his voice.
He's a hack through and through.
The only worse voice in pop metal is king diamond.
Rob Halford is more masculine.
>keeps misusing the term pop metal
How to tell a metal pleb 101, you own no vinyl, go back to Hot Topic.
I wish Dio and Rainbow had stayed together
This gotta be the worst take to be posted on this board ever
I love both Ozzy and Dio but this is actually backwards if anything.
Dio sounded like an absolute demigod; Ozzy with his haunting wail actually played the victim role in many Sabbath songs. Nobody ties Dio to a tree; it happens to Ozzy every Thursday.
In real life dynamics with the band too, Ozzy was the bumbling clown of the group and didn't write anything. Dio came in and started throwing his weight around right away, bringing in lyrics and telling Tony and Geezer to fuck off when he didn't get his way. On Heaven and Hell the band changed their playing style around to accommodate him, not the other way around.
Dio sucks
Dio's hologram is also a better performer than Ozzy, and has never been roasted by the Insane Clown Posse accurately.
More like dio was the disciple of god
He’s the Jesus of heavy metal
Think of it like this
Ozzy was the son of the devil
Dio was the disciple of god
Imagine being such a wuss that you don't rock out to this song because it's "too metal"
