I was not too impressed with Heaven And Hell's performance at this years
Sweden Rock festival. When the band announced they chose to immortalize a performance from Radio City Music Hall the excitement was restricted.
The old geezers proved I was wrong - a song like
Lady Evil sounds better than ever. The weak point of
Heaven and Hell is unquestionably the "Dehumanizer" material. However, the band deserves credit since
I is one of the highlights of this concert.
Dio is grateful for the reception of the band. Despite
Dio being an elderly man his voice still sounds very good and he is one of the most remarkable singers in Rock.
The band also airs two new songs, which sounds promising. Both
Shadow of the Wind and
The Devil Cried are typical doomy Black Sabbath. Both songs are permeated by Tony Iommi´s trademarks. Iommi´s riffs still sound crushing and his playing is sharp and precise.
Heaven and Hell are scheduled to release a full blown studio album in 2008. This news has got me excited based on this excellent live album. This is a safe buy!
