Deluxe 5-CD slipcase boxed set collects Black Sabbath's complete Dio-fronted catalog: Heaven And Hell, Mob Rules, Live Evil (2 CDs), and Dehumanizer. Each title was recently remastered for the first time ever and features extensive liner notes including new band interviews. Heaven And Hell (1980) is regarded as one of Sabbath's all-time best with its anthem tracks 'Neon Knights', 'Die Young' and the epic title track. Mob Rule's ('81) was the first Sabbath LP to feature Appice on drums (replacing Bill Ward), delivering high octane classics like 'Falling Off The Edge Of The World', 'Turn Up The Night' and 'The Sign Of The Southern Cross'. Live Evil, the group's 1982 double-live set, is an in-concert masterpiece and a testament to the raw power of Sabbath's Dio, Iommi, Butler, and Appice lineup on fourteen epic tracks. Dehumanizer ('92).

- Black Sabbath - phase two.
- I'm glad Warner/Rhino is continuing what they did in 2004 with the Black Box. Here's hoping they don't stop here and go all the way with the Gillan/Hughes/Martin era stuff next. If not, at least scrap up the old masters and get those elusive albums back into print!
I admit that I'm more an Ozzy fan… More reviews
- The Dio Years
- This is all of the Dio Sabbath albums in one set. You either like it or you don't. The remixing isn't the issue for me - just having all of ths albums in one nice neat little set is what I like. More reviews
- The Rules of Dio
- The first thing I noticed with this box set was that the albums were packed in jewel cases rather than digipaks the way that the Black Box was. This causes an ugly look and feel presentation wise if you take all the remasters out of their respective boxes and line them up. However, all the… More reviews
- THe Heaven and Hell remaster is worth it
- The Heaven And Hell CD remaster is very good. Bill Ward's drums were buried in the original, but here they are sounding great. Geezer's bass lines, although present on the original, are sounding much better on this release. It was nice to have the other releases on something other than record or tape, but I really couldn't say that they… More reviews
- An Improvement Over the earlier versions on CD
- I finally got my copy of Black Sabbath's The Rules Of Hell Box Set, the Dio Era Albums remastered, and I must say I was impressed. The sound quality was quite better than the copies I currently own. The Mob Rules sounded much cleaner and not so low sounding, even Live Evil sounded better, its not perfect,but it did… More reviews
