The sixth full-length studio album by legendary Norwegian Symphonic Black Metal band.
Dimmu Borgir returns with a supreme opus of pure blackness and aural annihilation. It’s one of the most highly anticipated albums in the world of extreme music, and it's guaranteed to please the legions of band’s fans. Vehement guitar work, haunting keyboard melodies, dynamically precise drumming and dour/acidic vocals with a touch of melodic/operatic vocals characterize their infectious and abysmally seductive sound. Dimmu Borgir continues down the path towards total music domination with their most solid and effective lineup yet. Features guest vocals on two songs by Immortal's Abbath!
Album has since sold over 100,000 copies in the United States; the first album under Nuclear Blast to do so; and debuted on the Billboard 200 chart at number.
This is also their first album to feature their third and current logo.
CD includes 28 pages booklet.

First re-release of the debut full-length album by legendary Norwegian Symphonic Black Metal band.
Laying down the blueprint for their own career as well as the careers of countless imitators, "For All Tid" is one of the landmarks of the Scandinavian Black Metal scene. Although several other artists had already planted the seeds for the neo-opera approach to the genre, this was one of the few recordings that displayed the potential the genre had to grow.
The production is awful, boasting thin and sharp guitars, muted drumming, and echoing vocals that sound like what it might have been like to stand outside of their rehearsal hall. But somehow the songs manage to overcome the production, offering a somewhat beautiful (albeit warped) view of Heavy Metal that comes off far more ambitious than a band in their position usually does.
The scope of the album is quite large, offering lush soundscapes of grating Metal offset by sweeping keyboards. The use of clear vocals was another somewhat innovation in the genre, and their appearance in "Over Bleknede Blåner Cil Dommedag" is an excellent way to combine that idea with the savage Thrash Metal also contained in the song.
Although Mayhem and Emperor would bring this approach to the international Metal scene a year later with fantastic albums, "For All Tid" is the last stepping stone those groups needed to make it there. On top of that, this also marked the debut of one of the brightest and most innovative Metal bands of the following decade!!
It is the band's only studio album on which Shagrath is on drums and Tjodalv on guitar.
Remastered re-edition features front cover art in full color and the first two tracks from debut EP “Inn I Evighetens Mørke” 1994 as a bonus.
Nuclear Blast GmbH, 1995/1997 (NB 279-2 / 27361 62792). Made in Germany. Latest re-press of the first re-release.

- Product Code: NB 1719-2

- Price in bonus-scraps: 159
Second re-release of the third EP by legendary Norwegian Symphonic Black Metal band.
After three consecutive excellent albums, one wonders what happened to Dimmu Borgir during that mid-era crisis that is most visible when looking at the utter incoherence of the whole of "Spiritual Black Dimensions" and the latter half of "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia". Released right before that first crisis album ("Spiritual Black Dimensions"), "Godless Savage Garden" doesn’t provide much of an answer: it’s basically just as good as everything that came before it. It contains three live tracks (five in re-release 2006!), two re-recorded songs from the debut album "For All Tid", one cover song, and two never-before-released studio songs.
In terms of new tracks, "Moonchild Domain" opens up the EP with the usual Dimmu Borgir signature sound of streamlined Black Metal with a massive infusion of keyboards. This is basically the classic old-school Dimmu Borgir line-up, with the notable curiosity that Shagrath handles the keyboards here. His work is however exemplary, creating that epic atmosphere so inseparable from the early Dimmu Borgir sound. The guitar work on this particular song is great, with a technically impressive and long solo near the end, while Shagrath performs some amazingly good vocals. "Chaos Without Prophecy", the longest track at over 7 minutes, is similar in terms of quality except perhaps a bit slower in terms of tempo. Another high-quality solo is inserted in the middle of the song, and the entire effort comes off as being sincere and impressive considering the band’s next few years of strangeness.
Two re-recorded tracks from "For All Tid" demonstrate the earlier Dimmu Borgir sound as a more contrasted mix of real Black Metal and more classical-sounding keyboards, made to resemble piano playing as much as possible. The main difference here, of course, is the vastly cleaner production job done. While the effort might indeed have removed a small part of the original versions’ authenticity, the new versions are pulled off with remarkable skill and they essentially remain true to what they were. Of particular note here is the classic melodic track "Raabjørn Speiler Draugheimens Skodde", likely the best track off the debut and an instant highlight both there and here.
Speaking of highlights, the next one is just around the corner: the extremely well chosen cover of Accept’s "Metal Heart". While it might not have the original’s classic atmosphere, mad soaring chorus or general badass sound, this cover is a great song in its own right. The first thing one notices is that the aforementioned original atmosphere was replaced by a modern Dimmu Borgir high production-value sound, while the entire song has been given a Black Metal casing. The chorus is well performed by Shagrath. The awesome leads and the solo during the song’s latter half are more audible here and their performance is excellent. Still, the cover is a worthy addition to the EP and a guaranteed highlight.
Finally comes the second half of this EP, consisting of the five live tracks. They’re of variable quality. The unrelenting highlight is definitely the rendition of the monumental "Stormblåst" title track. This live version is everything that such a track should be: without losing any of the original’s epic atmosphere or intricacy, the live setting renders the whole thing even more energetic and powerful, thanks in part to the production values. This is the kind of live album you want to hear and the kind of concert you want to see. The other four tracks are all taken from "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant" and great in terms of performance and atmosphere.
Looking back, this is one hell of an EP. "Godless Savage Garden" is the least bad in that category, since the idea makes sense, somewhat. In any case, this is truly a gem containing some of the best material that Dimmu Borgir ever recorded: it’s on par with the three preceding albums!!
This is the last release to feature former keyboardist Stian Aarstad and first to include guitarist Astennu.

The fourth full-length studio album by the legendary American Heavy Metal singer and his band.
"Dream Evil" is by no means a departure from the Dio formula that was so successful for his first three solo albums. All of the elements that made them so successful are yet again retained here. However, what makes things different this time around is that Dio has more of a melodious side to him, which he puts use here rather than relying on the riffs and delivery he learned at the school of Black Sabbath. He even touches on the power ballad (a sure sign that the style had fully infiltrated Metal) with "All the Fool Sailed Away". The title track and "Sunset Superman" also proved to be two of Dio's most well-known, and most loved songs in his massive catalog.
The album features former Rough Cutt members Craig Goldy and Claude Schnell, and includes the singles "All the Fools Sailed Away" and "I Could Have Been a Dreamer".
Dream Evil was Dio's last album to feature Murray on the cover and also the last to feature drummer Vinny Appice until the 1993 album "Strange Highways".
Excellent album, a must have for the Dio faithful and for fans of traditional Metal in the 80s mold!!

"Dream Evil" is by no means a departure from the Dio formula that was so successful for his first three solo albums. All of the elements that made them so successful are yet again retained here. However, what makes things different this time around is that Dio has more of a melodious side to him, which he puts use here rather than relying on the riffs and delivery he learned at the school of Black Sabbath. He even touches on the power ballad (a sure sign that the style had fully infiltrated Metal) with "All the Fool Sailed Away". The title track and "Sunset Superman" also proved to be two of Dio's most well-known, and most loved songs in his massive catalog.
The album features former Rough Cutt members Craig Goldy and Claude Schnell, and includes the singles "All the Fools Sailed Away" and "I Could Have Been a Dreamer".
Dream Evil was Dio's last album to feature Murray on the cover and the last to feature drummer Vinny Appice until the 1993 album "Strange Highways".
Excellent album, a must have for the Dio faithful and for fans of traditional Metal in the 80s mold!!

The fifth full-length album by the legendary American Heavy Metal singer and his band.
This album displayed a complete change of musician line-up over the previous “Dream Evil” album, including the eighteen year old guitarist, Rowan Robertson, and the addition of Simon Wright on drums who previously played with AC/DC (1983-1989). But it's no apparent change in the band's sound. Nevertheless, the band's status in the Metal community was beginning to slip, and the album was the lowest-charting Dio record apart from the live "Intermission".
This album possesses an unusual sound. the riffs, for the most part, are pretty basic Heavy Metal riffs but that have a very epic and noble sound, similarly to riffs found in Power Metal. Yet, there is only one guitarist and although he does do some nice lead work, its nothing like the lead work in Power Metal. Moreover, its visible that the main focus of this band is Dio's powerful voice and interesting lyrics. In other words, there are no instrumental songs, no long instrumental sections, and no long guitar or any instrument solos. Dio's melodic voice along with the epic guitar riffs and just present enough drums make a grand combination. A combination unique.
Strong album with nice, catchy melodies, pretty heavy riffs, good vocals and excellent lyrics!!

The third full-length studio album by legendary American Heavy Metal band.
Keeping the same line-up, Dio didn't waste much time, releasing on August 15, 1985 the highly anticipated third album. Even if this new release followed the same musical and lyrical formula of the previous albums, this record is somehow trapped in Ronnie's indecision about "Sacred Heart"'s overall musical direction. If songs like "King of Rock and Roll" or "Sacred Heart" somewhat keep the original "Holy Diver" soul, firmly based on strong stylish riffs and a classic Hard Rock rhythm section, that always avoid overacting performances, tracks like "Rock 'n' Roll Children" or "Hungry for Heaven" are clearly more mainstream compositions, deliberately made to please the vastest audiences that could push "Sacred Heart" into the always commercially tempting US billboard.
Even with different musical approaches, "King of Rock and Roll", "Sacred Heart", "Rock 'n' Roll Children" and the extremely catchy "Hungry for Heaven" are all great songs that largely please Dio's demanding fan base.
This was the last Dio album to include guitarist Vivian Campbell, who went on to join several other bands, most notably Def Leppard, Riverdogs, Whitesnake and Thin Lizzy.
The top level musical performances from this now legendary line-up, with honorable mentions to Vivian Campbell's inspired guitar work and Ronnie James Dio's always amazing vocal performance, also give that extra push to place "Sacred Heart" among Dio's most respectable releases.
Album peaked at #29 on the Billboard 200. It is one of Dio's most well-known albums, including singles such as "Sacred Heart", "Rock 'n' Roll Children" and "Hungry for Heaven". The RIAA certified “Sacred Heart” Gold (500,000 units sold) on October 15, 1985.

The second full-length studio album by legendary American Heavy Metal band.
Dio shows his devil's horns to the universe once again with his second album. His unique sounding vocals dominating each and every song. There are a lot of similarities to "Holy Diver", but there are some subtle differences, too. The end result is almost equally impressive, though, and "The Last In Line" stands as one of the highlights of Dio's career.
When Dio's debut album "Holy Diver" landed on the shelves of music stores, people were absolutely blown away by it. The guitar harmonies, Ronnie James Dio's pitch-perfect tenor, and amazingly well done song compositions were all unbelievably good and stand tall even till this day. The first thing when listening to this release was the fact that the songs are much faster. The opener "We Rock" is one of the best openers you ever heard. It just takes hold of you and rocks the hell out of you. The riffs by Vivian Campbell are very well done again, this time taking on more of a 80s Metal approach, than the Rock influenced guitar riffs we heard on "Holy Diver". His guitar work really shows his abilities to draw you in to his leads and solos. Dio's vocals are amazing as always. He sings with a lot of emotion and instantly makes every song have a memorable chorus, which is always important for this type of Metal.
The production, considering the time and the technology available, is excellent. You can hear all the instruments perfectly at all times.
This is an album of classic Metal greatness, well worthy of the attention of any fan of Speed, Power, Progressive or traditional Metal.
The album was certified Gold (500000 units sold) by the RIAA on September 12, 1984, and was the first Dio album to be certified Platinum, achieving the feat on February 3, 1987.
In the UK, it attained Silver certification (60000 units sold) by the British Phonographic Industry, achieving this in January 1986, at the same time as “Holy Diver”.

First re-release of the second live album by legendary American Heavy Metal band.
“Evil Or Divine - Live In New York City” is a live album recorded at Roseland Theater in New York City, USA on December 13, 2002 and released by Spitfire Records (a division of Eagle Rock Entertainment) on CD in 2003 for USA and in 2005 for Europe.
One of the advantages that Ronnie Dio had on this tour over previous ones is that he had the most technically and musically proficient set of musicians behind him ever. Bassist Jimmy Bain holds the bottom of the arrangement strongly, as he has consistently done since he and Dio began their collaboration in Rainbow. Drummer Simon Wright puts on a hell of a technical display during his allotted solo time, making one wonder how he managed to keep those insanely simple beats when in AC/DC without having a breakdown. Scott Warren proves apt to the task of playing all keyboard parts previously handled by the likes of Jens Johansen and Claude Schnell. But the true technical wizard of the bunch proves to be Doug Aldrich, whose interpretations of the various solos coined by Dio’s previous collaborators is rivalled only by his amazingly varied display during his own solo sections, hitting upon such contrasting styles as Classical, Rock, Jazz, and Blues.
This collection of live recordings is the document of this tour, and it features the grand wizard of darkness in fine performing form, covering all the well-known anthems, like "Holy Diver" and "Heaven and Hell", and throwing in some choice new tunes for a balance of old and new.
Dio fans will enjoy having this as a Diamond Souvenir!
Deluxe Collector's Edition comes with newly 2019 remastered sound on 3x 180g vinyls, in newly created trifold cover, and with album-sized lenticular 3D art piece.

“Evil Or Divine - Live In New York City” is a live album recorded at Roseland Theater in New York City, USA on December 13, 2002 and released by Spitfire Records (a division of Eagle Rock Entertainment) on CD in 2003 for USA and in 2005 for Europe.
One of the advantages that Ronnie Dio had on this tour over previous ones is that he had the most technically and musically proficient set of musicians behind him ever. Bassist Jimmy Bain holds the bottom of the arrangement strongly, as he has consistently done since he and Dio began their collaboration in Rainbow. Drummer Simon Wright puts on a hell of a technical display during his allotted solo time, making one wonder how he managed to keep those insanely simple beats when in AC/DC without having a breakdown. Scott Warren proves apt to the task of playing all keyboard parts previously handled by the likes of Jens Johansen and Claude Schnell. But the true technical wizard of the bunch proves to be Doug Aldrich, whose interpretations of the various solos coined by Dio’s previous collaborators is rivalled only by his amazingly varied display during his own solo sections, hitting upon such contrasting styles as Classical, Rock, Jazz, and Blues.
This collection of live recordings is the document of this tour, and it features the grand wizard of darkness in fine performing form, covering all the well-known anthems, like "Holy Diver" and "Heaven and Hell", and throwing in some choice new tunes for a balance of old and new.
Dio fans will enjoy having this as a Diamond Souvenir!
Deluxe Collector's Edition comes with newly 2019 remastered sound on 3x 180g vinyls, in newly created trifold cover, and with album-sized lenticular 3D art piece.

The third live album by the legendary Heavy Metal band.
Recorded live at the Astoria Theatre, London U.K. on 22nd October 2005, "Holy Diver Live" features the classic "Holy Diver" album in its entirety, from start to finish, recorded live for the very first time, as well as other great tracks from Ronnie James Dio's tenure with Black Sabbath, Rainbow and Dio's other solo albums!
Captured live in front of a sold-out London crowd, Ronnie James Dio delivers a truly memorable performance on this truly memorable night. Dio has been hailed as one of the finest voices in Heavy Metal for over 30 years now and for good reason. Due to his stints in Rainbow, Black Sabbath and as a solo artist, Dio is one of the few people in the history of music that can honestly say they have played on three classic albums, each under a different moniker.

The debut full-length studio album by legendary American Heavy Metal band.
Dio has been hailed as one of the finest voices in Heavy Metal for over 30 years now, and for good reason. Despite recording two hit studio albums with Black Sabbath and playing throughout the world to huge crowds, Ronnie James Dio left the band in 1982 and began to put together his first solo project.
Released on May 25, 1983, the album has been hailed by critics as Dio's best work and a classic staple in the Heavy Metal genre. The album quickly became a favorite among Headbangers worldwide and eventually earned the band Platinum certification. The somewhat upbeat sounding "Rainbow in the Dark" was an MTV favorite, while the title track proved to be another standout. "Holy Diver" proved that Dio's departure from Black Sabbath had not affected his spirits. In fact, he sounds most inspired here, aided by his new, hungry backing band.
The album was certified Gold in the US on September 12, 1984 and Platinum on March 21, 1989. In the UK, it attained Silver certification (60000 units sold) by the British Phonographic Industry, achieving this in January 1986, at the same time as “The Last in Line”.

DIO “Magica” + “Evil Or Divine” /2CD Set/
- Product Code: EDGCD383
-
€ 10.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 109
Re-release of the eight full-length and the second live albums by the legendary American Heavy Metal band.
"Magica" was released in 2000 by Spitfire Records (a division of Eagle Rock Entertainment) and marks the return of guitarist Craig Goldy, who also has performed on Dio's album "Dream Evil" and in the later release "Master Of The Moon".
Ronnie James Dio produced this concept album. The album was originally planned to be the first part of a trilogy of concept albums, and shortly before beginning his tour with Heaven & Hell, Dio announced his intention to start the "Magica II" and "III" album after the tour's end, but he died shortly after of stomach cancer on May 16, 2010.
While “Magica” did not spawn any major hits for the band’s impressive catalog, it still stands among Dio’s most intelligent and seminal works. It is certainly an album that meant a great deal to Dio personally. All the tracks were penned by Ronnie and longtime guitarist, Craig Goldy. The story is of good and evil; past, present, and future. The lyrical content is filled with bold imagery and colorful allegory. In short, everything we have always loved about Dio’s Metal aura lives and breathes in “Magica“.
“Evil Or Divine - Live In New York City” is a live album recorded at Roseland Theater in New York City, USA on December 13th, 2002 and released by Spitfire Records (a division of Eagle Rock Entertainment) in 2003 for USA and in 2005 for Europe.
There is a new version of the Dio live experience and it is sure to please. To those of you who thought that Dio was a has been and that he would hang it up at the turn of the millennium, may you suffer and die listening to CDs of this Set being played at full blast by your neighbors knowing just how wrong you were!!
