The Devil You Know, the new Dio-Sabbath record, is every bit as rockin’ as I’d hoped it will be. I’m working on a review before its release a week from today, but if you’re anxious to hear it – and you really, really should be – it’s currently streaming on The Leak, which, for better or worse, is a VH1 sub-site.

GO LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM. IT IS AWESOME AND PUTS ALL OTHER VETERAN BANDS TO SHAME.

    It’s not bad. I like it, but i mean, they’re not really breaking any new ground, are they? I just hope i’m still rocking that hard at 60.

  • Blackthorned

    Well two of them kind of invented that ground I suppose. Amazing for their age of course but I like it as much on its own merits regardless – it just has that quality I look for in metal. I’m almost surprised to say it’s my favourite metal album of the year so far but I should have known after those track on the Dio Years.

    The mighty riffage of the Iommi and the fire and brimstone of the Dio is still a wonderful combination.

    This is a very sold album, I’ll def be picking it up.

  • myke

    i love it and its grower for sure

  • Sammy

    As someone who cut his metal teeth with Heaven and Hell (the album) and its awesome bluesy metal and Mob Rules with it’s dripping evil sound, I was totally prepared to write this off as a band who was probably way past its prime and out of fresh ideas.

    I was wrong.

    My love for this site is like a dump truck. Thanks for keeping up on the kickass, metalsucks!

  • vegard

  • gnarlk

    sabbath should just kick that buck toothed mummy ozzy to the curb for good and keep working with dio. good shit…

  • patochan

    These guys really are the kings of Geezer Metal. Pun intended.

    Ozzy who? This new record puts Zakk Wylde Ozzy to shame. Iommi is the inventor of the RIFF. Dio’s voice sounds as strong as it always has! Fuck!

  • Garske

    INB4 Revanant talking about how much he hates Dio.

    This owns.

    Forefathers of doom! What an inspiring slab of heaviness and evil.

  • teababe27

    This is very good.

    Fuck Dio.

    That said, I’ll force myself through his screeching and preening voice one of these days when I think I can tolerate it post-release.

    while its a pretty damn good album…”Scary Dreams” is still better than any fucking song on this Dio fronted Sabbath album.

  • groverXIII

    Great album. It’s not Paranoid, but Dio certainly sounds better at this point than Ozzy does.
