CLASSIC DIO-ERA PERFORMANCE OUT ON VINYL JANUARY 11;
LIMITED EDITION OF 3000 COPIES
AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH METAL CLUB
 Live At Hammersmith Odeon |
The second coming of Black
Sabbath began in 1979 when founding members Tony Iommi, Terry “Geezer” Butler, and
Bill Ward were joined by Ronnie James Dio, who added his fiery and powerful voice to the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame group’s crushing mix of iconic riffs, gloomy grooves and doom-soaked imagery. The Dio-
fronted line-up would release two iconic metal albums in consecutive years—1980′s Heaven And Hell and
1981′s Mob Rules (with Vinny Appice on drums)—before arriving at London’s Hammersmith Odeon
in January of 1982 for one of their most legendary shows.
Black Sabbath: Live At Hammersmith Odeon spotlights Sabbath as they storm through 14 of the
Dio-era’s best including “Neon Knights,” “Heaven And Hell,” “Children Of The Sea” and “Voodoo.” The band also
performs several pre-Dio classics including “Paranoid,” “Iron Man,” and a white-hot version of “War Pigs.” This epic
concert will be released on 180 gram vinyl as a limited edition set of 3000 copies on January 11 exclusively for Metal
Club. The individually numbered 3-LP set will be available only at participating Metal Club stores for a suggested
retail price of $36.98. For more information, please visit www.mymetalclub.com. This album was previously released on CD as a
Rhino Handmade limited edition of 5000 copies in 2007 and sold out in just one day.

THE BOY’S NO GOOD BUT HIS BOOGIE IS FABULOUS!
In our 2008 interview with Eagles of Death Metal‘s Jesse Hughes he said, “I admit to my own cliches. I always say, ‘This ain’t no Bible study.’ I ain’t here to save the whales or to get Ticketmaster to lower their prices. I’m here to have a good time.” That’s precisely what EODM did last evening at the 10th Annual Bone Bash in Mountain View, CA, wiggling and writhing and making rock ‘n’ roll dirty ‘n’ fun. While we await the next studio album and a full tour behind it, here’s a six-pack to tide us over. Damn, these cats are a blast and a half! (Dennis Cook)

JUNE 22 CONCERT IN BULGARIA BROADCAST WORLDWIDE
The “Big Four” – Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax – are bringing their historic European tour to the global stage by beaming the event via satellite to movie theaters around the world in a special HD cinematic event. These four acts broke out of the underground thrash movement in the 1980s to dominate the metal world. Despite huge demand, these musical giants have never shared the same stage until now.
The June 22 concert from the tour’s stop of the Sonisphere Festival in Sofia, Bulgaria will air the same day in over 450 theaters in more than 140 markets in the U.S., as well as beamed into theaters in Europe, Canada and Latin America. Delayed screenings are planned in Australia, South Africa and New Zealand. Tickets for “The Big Four: Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax” go on sale starting today, Friday, May 21 in the U.S. and internationally starting Friday, May 28 at participating theater box offices and at www.thebigfourlive.com.
In December 2009, the bands announced that they would be joining forces to take part in the traveling Sonisphere Festival for only seven shows across Europe. Lars Ulrich of Metallica says, “Who would have thought that more than 25 years after its inception, thrash metal’s Big Four would not only still be around, be more popular than ever, playing shows together at stadiums all over Europe, and on top of that, coming to a movie theater near you in High Definition (for better or worse??!!). Bring it on!”
Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian says, “Damn, as if this Big Four tour wasn’t exciting enough now we get to be on the big screen worldwide! Metal at the movies, two big horns up! It is unbelievably gratifying that this means so much to the metal community around the globe. Get your tix, grab some popcorn and get ready to bang your head!”
Declares Slayer’s Kerry King, “I can’t believe someone didn’t make this happen 15 years ago! The fans finally get what they want. I think it’s awesome!”
Says Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine, “The magnitude of this event hasn’t really sunk in yet, and I am thrilled to know that people around the planet will be able to walk into a movie theater and experience the greatest line up of Heavy Metal in the history of the world!”
METAL WISDOM AND HUMOR FROM A MAN WHO KNOWS

Here’s the audio of one of the funniest things to come across the JamBase virtual desk in a spell. Dude is lethally funny, and he’s be happy to smoke out with you after a show. And his cat’s name is Manowar and he burned a church in Norway. Yeah, Posehn is more metal than usÂ…and you!
Bonus Posehn! Here’s his spot-on music lesson from Live: In Nerd Rage.
