I listened to a bit of Iced Earth today. I've said I won't allow Jon to ruin my enjoyment of it. So far, that statement stands. But naturally while listening I associated it with the coup and it put a bit of a cloud on the whole listening experience. So while it 's not ruined, it is definitely tainted.
This sucks. Iced Earth used to be my 3rd favorite band, up until around Dystopia (that was a very good album though).
Edit: Listening to this now. Matt is really pitchy here on I Died For You. Not a good performance.
