2189 Savatage - Handful of Rain

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51mwrK7YgbL._SL500_AA280_.jpg
From: Handful of Rain; Year: 1994; Genre: Progressive Metal
I was intending on picking another song today, but last night I had this song on my mind and it seemed like a pretty good fit for today.
Even though the entire album's overall feel was clouded by the untimely death of Criss Oliva, I have always personally found the Handful of Rain album to be more uplifting and powerful than down/sad. The title-track is my favourite off of the record; I love the mix of the acoustic and heavier sounds. Of course Zach Steven's vocals are truly incredible as always; it's amazing to think that a single band had two of the greatest metal vocalist.

Hear Handful of Rain on YouTube.
