Darker and Edgier | |
| Ronnie James Dio (Music) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Strange Highways and Angry Machines have a heavier and more Doom Metal influenced sound than most of his other work, and feature Dio mostly abandoning his usual fantasy thematics for focusing on realistic issues like child abuse ("Give Her the Gun"), divorce ("Don't Tell the Kids"), and mental illness ("Institutional Man"). Dio's vocal style is also significantly harsher. | |

Heavy Meta: While known mainly for writing fantasy-themed lyrics, people forget that he also wrote quite a few songs about The Power of Rock. "Stand Up And Shout" and "Rock And Roll Angel"note which mixes The Power of Rock with Heavy Mithril, for example. Plus, his final song was called "Metal Will Never Die" and is about the lasting appeal of the genre. | |

Ur-Example: His work (solo and as a member of Rainbow and Black Sabbath) was a huge influence on Power Metal both musically and lyrically, and he's sometimes credited as inventing it, though it tends to differ from most later Power Metal due to being slower and a bit less technically flashy on average. | |

Teen Genius: Rowan Robertson was only seventeen when he auditioned for the band, and while Dio was greatly impressed by his performance, he was extremely reluctant to hire someone that young. It was only after reviewing all the other finalists and determining that Robertson was the best out of all of them that he relented and gave Robertson the job. | |

Self-Backing Vocalist | |
| Ronnie James Dio (Music) / int_e6dea5bf | comment |
Self-Backing Vocalist: Would make extensive use of this, as with a few exceptions virtually all of the backing vocals on his albums are done by him. This also applies to his work with Rainbow and Black Sabbath, along with the The Devil You Know album with Heaven and Hell. | |

Heavy Mithril: If not the Trope Makernote the trope dates as far back as Led Zeppelin then certainly the Trope Codifier. Lyrics he wrote often carried fantasy elements such as magic and dragons. The music video for Holy Diver features a sword-wielding Dio running through a spooky castle and fighting medieval dudes, and the "Sacred Heart" tour's stage show would involve him slaying an animatronic dragon with a sword. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: He was normally a pretty nice, calm guy... Until you pissed him off. See Berserk Button. | |
