Black Sabbath and heavy metal as a whole were in big trouble around 1992. After a couple of mediocre studio albums, notably Headless Cross and TYR, Sabbath fell into the 'man, they were great way back when..' speak as well as the state of metal after grunge came in and swept their depression-rock all over the music landscape. Outside of Metallica at the time, you didn't, or in a lot of cases couldn't, put out a metal album that would take much notice.
Even metal vocalist great Ronnie James Dio couldn't catch a break, playing to 3000 seat venues after playing 30,000 ones less than a decade earlier. But at one of those smaller venues former Sabbath bass great Geezer Butler visited Ronnie at one of his shows, grabbed a bass, and the two played music together after ten years apart. After speaking to only original member left guitarist Tony Iommi about the experience, it was decided that it was time again to join forces and reclaim Black Sabbath Mark II. And that result was Dehumanizer.
With the original line-up that created the classic album Mob Rules, Dehumanizer retained that metal power while ditching Ronnie's trademark 'dungeon and dragons' lyrics with ones based upon the world of the early 90's, being the computer age 'dehumanizing' the people that created it. The album featured amazing Iommi riffs, Dio vocals still in top form, Geezer playing with new life, and drummer Vinny Appice once again laying down the doom & boom of his powerful drumming. It was hard to believe that at the time these guys had been already recording music for over twenty years because this reunion showed them with more strength and power than ever. Well produced and still to this day as fresh as the year it was created, Dehumanizer brought Sabbath back into the spotlight and clearly shown through amidst the grunge river of the 1990's.
This reissue has got to be one of the best Black Sabbath Deluxe Editions out there. Where others have vocal-less versions of songs, some bad sounding live tracks, or a B-Side or two, Dehumanizer has 10 extra tracks, each worth your purchase. Not only do you get the alternate versions of both 'Time Machine' & 'Letters From Earth' (both of which I personally prefer over the ones that ended up on the album), but the single edit of 'Master Of Insanity', and what I would like to go into with detail, the 'Sundome' live tracks.
You see, I've been a fan of Sabbath since I could remember, but by the time I was old enough to go to concerts, it was very hard to actually see them live. The Iommi-led version of Sabbath just didn't sell enough tickets to continue an American concert tour back in the late 80/early 90's. But when the reformed Dio-era/Dehumanizer tour was announced, I was ready..and so were the fans. The concert they performed in Tampa Florida (only their second USA show on the tour) was amazing, and they played like they were twenty-feet high. It was a show worthy of a live album, and somehow my prayers were answered because when the Master Of Insanity promo CD single (Parts One & Two) came out, select tracks from my show were there! They recorded and released a total of 4 songs from University Of South Florida Sundome show.
Now not only does this Deluxe Edition feature those 4 tracks, they dug up yet another, the medley of 'Master Of Insanity/After All (The Dead)', all remastered and sound great compared to the original CD-single issue. Along with all this, is great book-like packaging with unreleased photos and new liner notes that really explain what the life of Sabbath was like back then, and what eventually led to it's way-too-quick end until the 4 would re-reunite for Heaven And Hell over another decade later. So if you're a Dio or Sabbath fan, own Heaven And Hell or Holy Diver, this album deserves your attention. It is just as important as the Dio-led 80's albums and needs to be heard in this remastered form. Worth every, single penny I paid for it, this is the Deluxe Edition of Sabbath I'll cherish the most. All Hail Black Sabbath!

It’s all too easy to look back on Black Sabbath’s work and label one album classic, another one legendary, yet another one amazing. The passage of time has that effect. But if you were in a record shop in 1992, looking at Sabbath’s 16th album – with its juvenile sleeve and air of outdatedness – sitting next to far superior releases by new acts such as Nirvana and Soundgarden, the old buffers didn’t really look like contenders.

Which is a shame, because when you stripped away the hackneyed concept (evil computers taking over the world), Dehumanizer was easily Sabbath’s best album since Heaven & Hell, released 12 years before. The band had endured a melancholy mid-tolate 80s, releasing ho-hum albums with Ian Gillan, Glenn Hughes and Tony Martin, and never really finding their form, so when their sometime singer Ronnie James Dio and their old bassist Geezer Butler signed up for this album, the results were always going to be interesting.

Black Sabbath's First Album

The music is high-octane hard rock as much as it is heavy metal, with songs such as TV Crimes, Computer God and Sins Of The Father all deserving a place in any given Sabbath set. Since Dio’s death last year, however, the music from this album isn’t likely to get a live airing again, leaving this extended reissue your best option. Three bonus mixes and five concert cuts (including Neon Knights and Children Of The Sea, from the Heaven & Hell era) add mucho value.
