Holy Diver, Dio's band debut, was originally issued in 1983.
Holy Diver was the logical succession of the music Dio created in Rainbow and Black Sabbath (Shame on the Night in particular would have been right at home on Mob Rules), and it played a key role in defining the American metal and power metal sound.
Holy Diver is one of the all-time greatest heavy metal albums, and one that every self-proclaimed metal fan should own.

The resemblance to Castlevania is what attracted me to Holy Diver in the first place: the main character resembles a Belmont, and a lot of the enemies have attack patterns like the ones in Castlevania.

 Dio : Holy Diver - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
After participating in five classic studio albums (three with Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow and two with Black Sabbath) in the late '70s and early '80s, it seemed that singer Ronnie James Dio could do no wrong.
And with the release of his self-monickered band's debut album, Holy Diver, in 1983, Dio struck gold once again by injecting catchy melodies into the classic metal riffery of his previous groups.
Besides Dio's inspired songwriting, the album's consistency owes a lot to his carefully chosen bandmates, including veteran bassist Jimmy Bain and drummer Vinny Appice, and a phenomenal find in young guitarist Vivian Campbell, whose creativity and technique are quite astounding.
