On the bonus disc you will find three non-album versions of “Master of Insanity”, “Letters From Earth”, and “Time Machine” (the version from Wayne’s World). It collects every B-side side and associated track for Dehumanizer, as well as one previously unreleased one.
This deluxe edition is pretty much as good as they get. It is a shame that this newfound seriousness did not strike a chord with the grunge scenesters of the time. This carried on through to some of Ronnie’s solo albums as well. The liner notes reveal that the band had to convince Dio to drop the rainbows and dragons from the lyrics, and the album is that much more powerful for it. My personal favourite song is “I”, which…man, I won’t even try to describe it, except to say that it’s awesome. The sludge of “After All (The Dead)” crawls along, but slowly burrows its way into your memory. That’s why it sounds like a monster puking distortion out of the speakers.Ī track like “Computer God” relies on Appice’s relentless hammering, until Iommi’s riff subdues you into a pulp. For that vintage guitar sound, Iommi resurrected his old Gibson SG that he used back in the Paranoid days. To me, Dehumanizer is among the best of all Sabbath albums, and that includes Ozzy’s. Dehumanizer is marked by outstanding production (by Mack of Queen fame), newfound seriousness in the lyrical department, and a certain rhythmic thrift courtesy of Appice. Yet heaviness alone would not make any album a classic. It is incredibly heavy even for Black Sabbath, topped only by the same lineup’s The Devil You Know in 2009. The results were staggering: Dehumanizer, the best Black Sabbath since Born Again at least, and Sabotage at best.
