Despite being a tough sounding band, they had that melodic edge that took them away from being a Motorhead to a much more as you say AOR influenced band at times.

Anvil: No matter how many times I listen to Anvil I just can't get past their singer. He's just awful. I feel the same way about Cirith Ungol. Want to like them. Can't.

I wouldn't compare the two vocalists of those bands, as Steve Kudrow has more to offer and I'm guessing that Dave Mustaine took a lot from him. Metal on Metal of course represents as far as I'm concerned, everything great about being a mean sounding metal album before thrash came along.
