Black Sabbath - Dehumanizer (2011 Remastered and Expanded)

Anyone pick this up yet? SWEET! It is awesome! Remaster is killer, the bonus disc is worthy of the price!

Reminds me how much I miss Dio. The booklet is really nice it is a 14 page booklet with tons of archival information and pictures and memorabilia from this era. A GREAT addition for my Sabbath collection!

If you haven't picked it up yet and your a Sab fan! I highly encourage you check it out!

Not a very glowing review there, certainly not something I'd want to promote the cd!

I was a bit disappointed w/it at first, but I came to love that lp. Too many folks expect bands to go back and make the same music they made in their youth, it's simply not possible to re-create something from another era. Everything that went into that art, what they felt at the time, their surroundings, the musical landscape...are all gone. To try and recpature that would be to force the art, wich is exactly what Queensryche did w/"Mindcrime II!"

Always liked Dehumanizer and never quite got what everyone seemed to dislike about it. Okay,it's not Heaven And Hell or Mob Rules Part II, but who in their right mind expected it to be. Even in that review,the songs are being compared to earlier material. I think it was great hearing Dio sing in the band again. Too bad they couldn't have held it together longer.

I loved 'Dehumanizer' and remember being excited that the Dio line up of Black Sabbath not only had reformed but where recording and going to be touring, was lucky enough to see this tour and it was one of the best shows I had ever seen, opening act Danzig was pretty kick ass too.

I like it OK but I don't think it's as good as the album that came before it or after it.

Apparently Cozy wasn't crazy about the material either so that is why they made up the story about why he had to leave and not appear on the album.

Decent album, but there's nothing on that 2nd disc that would make me re-purchase. I'm fine with the copy I already have.

That's the way I feel about it too.

x2

I'm sure I'll get it eventually, I want all the Sabbath Deluxe editions.

Being that Dehumanizer is my fave Sab album I got all the b-sides etc from this
already and 3 discs worth of demos from Dehumanizer so I'll pass.

I like Dehumanizer a lot more than their last final album (as H&H).

And i have the reissue they released a few years ago. This one doesn't offer anything great that i would want to buy another one.

I am with you on that. I just dont want to shell out the cash for them right now..

This is an amazing album. One of Sabbath's best. I had been on the fence about ordering this one but I just got paid today and have had an urge to spend money so thanks for reminding me about this one. Just ordered it.

When Heaven and Hell was touring, I thought the Dehumanizer songs they did fit into the set perfectly with the older material.

Do we really need a remastered version of this album??

It's widely available on the market.

I have always considered dehumanizer to be a brilliant BlackSabbath album, but I don't fancy myself getting this copy.

I really like Dehumanizer as well, but I'm fine with the normal copy I own.

A very unique sounding record. And there's nothing wrong with the mix. Just... different. Those drums are super loud.

Dehumanizer is my favorite Dio album with Sabbath. Although my favorite song is Heaven and Hell.
