'We wanted to capture what we are live and that's really what I think we did. 'We wanted it to be real rock 'n' roll: real basic,' Dio told WERS' Nasty Habits show. The album's lead single, 'TV Crimes,' was a criticism of American televangelists, particularly Jeff Fenholt, who briefly worked with Iommi in the mid-1980s on what would become Seventh Star. Geezer promised a credit and payment, but Jimi never was paid or credited for his contributions. Jimi Bell, the guitarist with Butler's band actually wrote the song. 'Master of Insanity' was the only track on Dehumanizer that Dio did not have a hand in writing the lyrics. 'Master of Insanity' was also an unreleased Geezer Butler Band track, of which the Dehumanizer version is essentially a rerecording.

The Butler version is available as a download on his website.

'Computer God' was the title of an unreleased song by The Geezer Butler Band, in 1986В вЂ“ only the title made it to Dehumanizer. These songs can be found, along with other demos and untitled songs, on the Complete Dehumanizer Sessions bootleg. Ian Gillan ( Deep Purple singer, and another ex-Sabbath singer) asked me once if I had actually been fired and I said, 'No.' He said, 'Neither have I.' We should just turn up one day and walk on stage!' Дemo sessions with Powell yielded numerous recordings, including two unreleased songsВ вЂ“ 'The Night Life' (also called 'Next Time'), whose riff was later used for 'Psychophobia' on Cross Purposes, and 'Bad Blood,' which sounds very similar to 'I' on Dehumanizer. In fact, I was never formally fired the phone just stopped ringing. Ronnie wasnвЂ™t too pleased, but eventually they had enough and asked me to rejoin again later so it felt like I hadnвЂ™t actually left. We did keep in touch though and I went to some shows. I was determined to finish my solo thing and so turned them down at that point. And in fact it was just a couple of months after they had started the thing with Ronnie James Dio. Martin stated: 'I had already started my first solo album Back Where I Belong вЂ“ so, when I got the call to go back, I was committed by that point. He stayed for just a couple of days and the band continued with Dio. They instead recruited Vinny Appice, who had served as Sabbath's drummer during most of Dio's previous tenure with the band, from 1980вЂ“1982.Дuring sessions for the album, Tony Martin made a short comeback when invited by the band to try the songs out. Dio initially wanted to replace Powell with Simon Wright, from AC/DC and his own band, but Butler and Iommi rejected him. It was intended to feature Cozy Powell, then Sabbath's drummer, but he was immobilised by a broken pelvic bone sustained in a horse riding accident. The album was recorded in Wales, at Rockfield Studios. Lyrical themes vary from a computer worshipped as a god (Computer God), to televangelists (TV Crimes), to individualism (I) and doubts about the afterlife (After All (The Dead)). Lyrically and musically, Dehumanizer is considered one of Sabbath's heaviest albums. The album was re-released, with bonus content, on 7 February 2011. The album's lineup вЂ“ Dio, Appice, Butler and guitarist Tony Iommi вЂ“ reunited in 2006 for a greatest hits set, Black Sabbath: The Dio Years, and a new studio album in 2009, The Devil You Know (billed as Heaven & Hell). The band spent two weeks writing material before spending six weeks rehearsing and recording demos at Monnow Valley Studios in Wales. With Vinny back in the band, this effectively reunited the Mob Rules lineup. However, when Cozy became injured with a broken hip, he was replaced with Vinny. Initial writing and demo sessions at Rich Bitch Studios in Birmingham featured drummer Cozy Powell bootlegs of these sessions exist. It was Sabbath's first studio album in over a decade to feature vocalist Ronnie James Dio and drummer Vinny Appice, and their first in nine years to feature original bassist Geezer Butler.

Dehumanizer is the sixteenth studio album by English rock band Black Sabbath, released on June 22, 1992.
