YMMV / Grave Digger

  • Hilarious in Hindsight: The cover of Stronger Than Ever (which features a robotic Donald Duck with melting skin) has become one in the wake of Epic Mickey, which has horrific robot versions of Disney characters.
  • Narm:
    • Lead singer Chris Boltendahl has two singing styles; an over-the-top screechy style and a melodramatic clean style. His singing has gotten better every album, (un)fortunately.
    • "Night drifter, CRIES IN HIS PILLOW!" from "Night Drifter."
    • "LOVE IS BREAKING MY HEEE-AAAART!" from "Love is Breaking My Heart", one of the unintenionally funniest ballads done by a metal band.
    • From "Shadows of a Moonless Night":
    I hear you're near
    Near by my ear
    Kissing my ass
    Stealing my breath
    • "Wedding Day" is about newlyweds and the wife won't have sex with her husband. And the chorus is (so not) ominous:
    Wedding Day
    All night we gonna burn
    Wedding Day
    The day of no return
    It's my wedding day...
    • Their song "Dolphin's Cry." Yes, a band called Grave Digger has a song called "Dolphin's Cry".
    • "The Spell," which is sung from Merlin's POV:
    There in the woods she taught me how to touch a girl
    I taught her to enchant any person in the world
    I feel my end is near
    I think I have to die
    I pay a high price feeling lust between her thighs!
    • "Sword", which is sung from the point of view... of a sword:
    Steel by steel
    The hammer falls
    Shaping me - a deadly sword
    With fire and power - I do well
    I curse it with a magic spell!
  • So Okay, It's Average: The opinions on the album Stronger Than Ever. While it is not up to par with rest of the discography, it isn't as bad and/or fan dividing as a commercial "sell-out" albums go.
