Black Sabbath Artist Snapshot:

Known worldwide as the embodiment of heavy metal, England's Black Sabbath enveloped the 1970s in a dense fog of apocalyptic imagery, monolithic guitar riffs, and horror-movie lyrics. When frontman Ozzy Osbourne left the band in 1979 for a highly successful solo career, the band soldiered on with a number of replacements, including Rainbow's Ronnie James Dio. In 1997, Ozzy and his former bandmates staged a much-publicized reunion. In the 2000s, when Ozzy got busy with solo recordings, Ozzfest, and his reality show THE OSBOURNES, Dio stepped in once again to front another incarnation of the band.

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

More than 25 years after the release of WE SOLD OUR SOUL FOR ROCK 'N' ROLL, that excellent Black Sabbath collection is finally eclipsed by SYMPTOM OF THE UNIVERSE, a two-disc compilation that literally doubles the classic metal dosage. Along with every song on WE SOLD OUR SOUL, this remastered set includes 15 more tunes by the original lineup of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward. The finest of these additions include the previously U.K.-only track "Evil Woman," the epic stomps "Into the Void" and "Lord of This World," the thunderous "Supernaut," and the driving title track.

SYMPTOM also features "Warning" and the string-laden instrumental "Laguna Sunrise" from the initial two-LP version of WE SOLD OUR SOUL, as well as four tracks from Sabbath's oft-maligned late-1970s albums. The result is an outstanding overview of Ozzy's years with Sabbath, showcasing how his distinctive vocals meshed with Iommi's formidable riffs, Butler's rumbling bass, and Ward's spot-on drums to create music that is unendingly influential.
