The year is 1979, Black Sabbath returned from touring in support of Never Say Die!. Tony Iommi was unhappy with Ozzy Osbourne and he decided to fire him from band. Ronnie James Dio left Rainbow in 1979 due to creative differences. Sharon Arden suggested Dio to Iommi and he officially joined the band. They started to work on a new album, which will become some of the most essential ''reading'' for every metalhead on the world. Read more ›› |

The album, the name, and the last band Ronnie toured with. This album turned 30 years old last month, which is surely testament to the timeless quality of this true heavy metal classic. There's no better time than now to blast it out one more time. Baz Anderson's picks | More picks ›› |

Never appreciated this album when I was in my teens, but listening to it now, it's amazing. Children Of The Sea is such a great song.

This absolute masterpiece of heavy metal turns 40 today. Timeless and essential in any metalhead's collection; in dictionaries they could have its cover art to portray the word "classic".

Written by nikarg on 25.04.2020 at 15:53 So fucking true. Already swung 3-4 times during my home from work sessions today. As a matter of fact, concentrated more on this than on my reports. This is one of the best rum we can ever have.

I remember first listening to this thinking, this does not sound typical Black Sabbath to me, I was pleasantly surprised tho, sounded like one of Dio's very own solo albums, he brought new life and direction to Sabbath, and it's proven to be one of their finest albums, every song is enjoyable and Dio's vocals are on top form. The title track is probably the best title track to an album I've ever heard, and Children of the Sea defenitly deserves a mention too. Tbh I like every song on the album.

Different from Sabbath's early doom metal, this album has a lot of energy (Neon Knights), emotion (Heaven and Hell), and also softer moments (Lonely is the Word). Every song is fantastic - the pinnacle of Dio's magic; a great balance of the emotion of Rainbow, the riffs of Black Sabbath, and the energetic and operatic voice of the one and only Dio!
