WAKE UP!!!! - HEAVEN & HELL - new album April 28th

HEAVEN & HELL SET TO REVEAL "THE DEVIL YOU KNOW"

Highly Anticipated New Album From Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler
and Vinny Appice To Be Released April 28 From Rhino

LOS ANGELES --Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinny Appice
returned to the stage after 15 years in 2007, launching a triumphant
world tour as Heaven & Hell. Revitalized and inspired by its time
on the road, the quartet recently returned to the studio, recording the
band's first album since 1992's Dehumanizer. The highly anticipated
album, THE DEVIL YOU KNOW, will be available from Rhino on April 28.

"Everyone had so much fun playing together that we didn't want it to
end," says the group. "We started writing together and the songs
started flowing like we never stopped. We wound up writing and
recording an album that stands up to anything we've ever done. We're
really proud of the music and excited for people to hear it."

The dark tone heard on THE DEVIL YOU KNOW is clear from several of the
album's song titles, such as "Bible Black," "Rock & Roll Angel,"
"Breaking Into Heaven," "Atom & Evil" and "Eating The Cannibals."

The seeds of the new album were planted in 2006, when Dio, Iommi, Butler
and Appice returned to the studio to record a trio of new songs for
Black Sabbath: The Dio Years, a recent compilation of essential tracks
taken from the quartet's four albums together. Soon after, the band
launched a run of sold-out shows around the world.

THIS ALBUM RULES!!!!

A friend of mine ripped it to mp3 for me and I finally got around to listening to it the other day and WOW!! I really like it. It picks up right from where Dehumanizer left off. A much heavier sounding album than Dehumanizer to my ears. Ronnie's vocals are golden as always, Iommi's riffs and solos are classic and tasteful, Geezer's bass is on par (although I think he seems somewhat restrained) and Vinnie......well Vinnie is Vinnie; a solid drummer but a little boring at times.

Overall a great return to form by Sabbath......uhhhm.....Heaven and Hell.
