Bio:
Black Sabbath are generally considered both the first heavy metal and doom metal band. Originally they were called Polka Tulk (featuring a saxophonist and slide guitarist in their line-up) before changing to Earth, a name they had to change again because of confusion with another band of the same name. They may have also went by the name The Earth Blues Company in their pre-Black Sabbath days.Originally, they started as a blues-influenced hard rock group, but as they progressed they added more European folk elements to their sound, a sound that wasn't like any other group during their time. Thus, this was known as heavy metal, and in due time, the band became what is now known as doom metal. Their lyrics dealt with darker issues than most conventional rock as well.Accordingly, the "doom" genre name came from their "Paranoid" release, with the song called "Hand of Doom." Stoner metal is another sub-genre that is a direct descendant from this band.The "Mob Rules" line-up of Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, Ronnie James Dio and Vinny Appice reunited in 2007. Rather than using the Black Sabbath name (as the original line-up is still officially in place), they were called Heaven and Hell, after the first Dio-era album. Three new tracks were recorded for a compilation album of Dio-era Sabbath material before they officially reformed under the Heaven and Hell name.On May 13th 2006, Black Sabbath were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, becoming arguably the first heavy metal band to receive that honor.On November 11, 2011, the original members of Black Sabbath officially announced that they would record a new album and tour again in 2012.On May 19th, 2012, Geezer Butler announced that Tommy Clufetos would be the drummer for the band at three live shows. Original drummer Bill Ward has issued a statement saying that he would not join the reunion because of an "un-signable contract".
Album:
Black Sabbath's fourth studio album, aptly titled Vol. 4, will be getting a "Super Deluxe" reissue in 2021 complete with 20 unreleased studio and live recordings adding to the collection.Rhino will issue the Vol. 4: Super Deluxe Edition on Feb. 12 as both a 4-CD and 5-LP collection. Both versions will come with extensive booklets featuring liner notes with quotes from all four band members, rare photos and a poster with previously unpublished early artwork for the album that used the working title Snowblind (which went on to be one of the album's most popular tracks).As for the bonus material that highlights this edition, fans can look for six previously unreleased studio outtakes that include the songs "Supernaut," "Changes" and an instrumental version of "Under the Sun." Each of the outtakes has been newly remixed by Steven Wilson using analog multi-tracks.You'll also get 11 additional studio recordings that encompass alternative takes, false starts and snippets of studio dialogue that help put the listener right in the studio and offer some insights into the making of the record.And finishing out the bonus material are live versions of "Tomorrow's Dream," "Cornucopia," as well as fan favorites "Paranoid" and "War Pigs" that were recorded in March 1973 during the band's U.K. tour. These recordings were initially targeted for a live album that was shelved but now get a spotlight with newly mixed audio using the original 16-track analog tapes.You can currently pre-order the collection via Rhino at this location. In addition, a remastered version of the song "Tomorrow's Dream" has been made available digitally ahead of the release and you can check that out via the platform of your choosing here.Vol. 4 peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart, but has been certified platinum by the RIAA.Vol. 4 is the fourth studio album by English rock band Black Sabbath, released in September 1972. It was the first album by Black Sabbath not produced by Rodger Bain; guitarist Tony Iommi assumed production duties. Patrick Meehan, the band's then-manager, was listed as co-producer, though his actual involvement in the album's production was minimal.
