"Dio" spells "Devil" when you turn it upside down. We metalheads love the secret evil.

Yeah Dio was awesome! Holy Diver and Last in Line are terrific metal albums. He is also known for inventing the "devil horns" you see people make with their hands at metal shows. The cool thing about his albums is that if you turn them upside down the word "Dio" spells "Devil". I put an example on the post.

I don't remember which song it is, but Dio had a great post-apocalypse video with scary cyborgs in it.

He invented the devil hands? That's amazing. I feel like the upside-down "devil" is a little forced, though. The V, I and L are all crammed into the poor D? I dunno...
