Great call there, hands down my favourite song from the album.
Good against Evil, Evil sure to win

Seconded!

Gotham City - Born To Rock Hard
The whole song is absolute straight foward, down-to-earth metal proudness. I go crazy when I hear the riff :P

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Simple but effective, the riff that started all of this. It's amazing how heavy and menacing this three-note riff is!

Dio - Holy Diver
Heavy fucking Metal!
