He was also a member of The Spektors where he began playing drums and occasional singer, then joined another group called The Valenton singing, then goes through Fraternity in 1973, after returning from a tour of England, Fraternity separates. During this period, Scott joins a group named Peter Head's Mount Lofty Rangers. After one of the trials, Scott has a motorcycle accident and suffered serious injuries. Fraternity returns to join, but Scott was replaced by singer Jimmy Barnes. Tube career before AC / DC and still was a great singer. Then join AC / DC know the Young brothers who decide to hire well, to make the best vocalist in history.

With a powerful voice was so sharp and shake the stage, adding his euphoria to the public, Scott was an ardent and influential dose for rockers who want to enjoy a real sense of music as it was him.

Better known as DIO, is giving rise to a new, fun and original way to appreciate and enjoy the heavy metall, a great singer in history and influential in the way they act on stage and make it a powerful voice unmatched to compete against anyone and overcomes many of its big waves and shaken with metal praising his greatest hits ... well if, if, DIO is a great singer and everything you would expect from a single icon in the music But what characterizes DIO was not just your voice ... All in the world, we make a gesture with his hands and starts shaking hands as if they had no control nuestas and follow the rhythm of music, or just do it because we saw someone do it and what is cool and imitate, in so doing making the hand shape of horns or horns lifting the index finger and pinkie, covering the thumb with the middle finger and void. And so is The Famous Hand Cornut form, created by the DIO and characterized so far and it continues to use in their concerts. All responded with great joy and enthusiasm to raise their hands making the sign of the horns, as well as the symbol of the Rock. No one was characterized by a simple gesture with his hand and now has become an urban tradition, and who does not is a failure to music. Led by different groups but his stardom was launched by joining one of the best bands of heavy metall, Black Sabbath, who replaced Ozzy Osbourne recalled and only resigned from the group that although some say he was fired. DIO was brought to the Black Sabbath of darkness in which he was involved, firing the market one of his best album Heaven and Hell, where their concerts started using La Mano cornuta. After a few more CDs waiver where Black Sabbath beginning his solo career releasing the album, the best by DIO regarded by the vast majority, Holy Diver displayed in your home to a demon who formed the famous cornuta hand in his left hand. It is without doubt one of the best representatives of the Heavy Metal and that until today still gives concerts on a large scale. The famous symbol of the heavy metall ... DIO.

Bruce Dickinson

Iron Maiden, who has not heard this famous banda achieved stardom with his album The Number of the Beast, but who was the lead singer? None other than Bruce Dickinson. He was the one that launched his great Iron Maiden fame for his unmatched voice and his unique way of singing that characterizes it as one of the best in history. In addition to singing, has a level of interpretation very basic guitar, as seen in the live video of Iron Maiden Live After Death, or several other music videos of his solo career.

Ozzy Osbourne

Paaaraapaarara, parararararara stop ... I did not hear that sound so heavy but powerful!, Well, not well understood the character but the hum made by the beginning of a new stage musical, a new genus, Era ... Ozzy Osbourne, along with the group that started the Heavy Metal, Black Sabbath embodied the depth and dark music, but nobody knew where everybody was involved. With the song Iron Man, Ozzy Osbourne with Black Sabbath created heavy metall true, which because several groups want to achieve but did not succeed. With Ozzy's voice as dark and heavy, but at the same time giving a pleasing fear for the soul of the metal and euphoric crazed, drugged and / or alcoholics, did a masterful mix so that everyone wanted to get as addicted to them . Ozzy was not just this world, did move in concert crowds, remaining still, and so far it succeeds, as it was dismissed or resigns as some say, a Black Sabbath because consuming various substances. He was replaced by DIO who then surrendered to his solo career (as I said before). Ozzy and Black Sabbath come together again in 1996 to undertake tours to continue playing until today. Undoubtedly Ozzy was those moments that gave heavy metal to the people who followed him around the world to make history, proclaiming the birth of a new way of life, Heavy Metal.
