	Amazon.com: Fused: Music: Tony Iommi,Glenn Hughes
		Since the days of Black Sabbath with Tony Iommi's Seventh Star back in 1986 and the 1996 unreleased Eighth Star album (which would later become the DEP Sessions to be remixed in 2004), Tony Iommi and Glenn Hughes return for their third outing together.
		Iommi's excitement about Fused is at a fever pitch and he cannot wait to tour with Hughes and Aronoff.
		Fused is more of a harder album than the DEP Sessions as that album was leaning on the softer side.

	BLABBERMOUTH.NET - New TONY IOMMI/GLENN HUGHES Collaboration At Mixing Stage
		Tony Iommi hope all goes well, looks great so far, looking forward to buying the album and will pass the word a.s.a.p.
		Seventh Star was a Iommi solo album until he was forced to call it Sabbath by his record company) let's hope he's had a rejuvination in the songwriting dept. If that's true this - as well as the next Sabbath album- will kill.
		Iommi could have Pee Wee Herman on vocals...as long as the riffs are good...

	BLABBERMOUTH.NET - GLENN HUGHES Says New Collaboration With TONY IOMMI Is 'A Mammoth Record'
		Asked if there is any chance for Hughes and Iommi to support the album with a tour, Glenn replied, "Tony and I will tour the album properly when we get the right release date and the right tour in front of us.
		The trio have cut 13 tracks, all produced by Bob Marlette, who worked on Tony's first solo album ("Iommi") in 2000 and the BLACK SABBATH "Reunion" album in 1998, and whose recent productions with SEETHER and SHINEDOWN are currently in the U.S. Billboard charts.
		This guy in Sabbath or with Iommi is like the least popular DR. from DR. WHO #6 suddenly getting lots of credit.

	Tony Iommi Interview 2004
		Iommi invented heavy metal guitar riffing, trademarked the detuned sound and wrote the guitar parts to some of the most memorable and beloved songs in the genres history including “Iron Man,” “Paranoid,” “War Pigs,” “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath,” “Heaven and Hell” and “Sweet Leaf.” To say he is a living legend is an understatement.
		Tony Iommi is to heavy metal as Chuck Berry is to rock ‘n roll.
		Tony also discuses the possibility of a new Black Sabbath album and takes us on a historic trip through time including how he made the fake fingertips that enabled him to play guitar after tragically cutting off the tips of his fret hand fingers in a work related accident.

	riverfronttimes.com News Tony Iommi
		Iommi features a different vocalist on each of the 10 tracks (almost as many singers as have succeeded Ozzy in the Sab), and the album as a whole is as spotty quality-wise as you'd imagine something with 10 vocalists could be.
		Finally Iommi has slipped the chains of his former band and released an album under his own name in an effort to break free of the post-Ozzy Sabbath comparisons and expectations.
		Iommi is not a bad album, but it's not an outstanding one.

		Iommi also had the opportunity to go solo from BLACK SABBATH with 1987's GLENN HUGHES fronted 'Seventh Star' album originally being intended as an Iommi solo vehicle before record company insistence it be released under the BLACK SABBATH banner...
		Tony Iommi is undoubtedly the man regarded by most Rock fans as the guitarist who invented the Heavy Metal riff.
		Iommi also has a knockabout live band with Bevan fronted by comedian Jasper Carrott titled BELCH.

	Tony Iommi, Deep Purple Union News @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
		Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi recently took time out of his schedule to record the guitar parts for a remake of "Trashed" from Black Sabbath's "Born Again" album, which featured Ian Gillan (Deep Purple) on vocals, according to Blabbermouth.net.
		thats kinda retarded that tony iommi records for a remake of his own song.
		The new version of the track will be included on Gillan's upcoming album "Gillan's Inn" — a celebration of Ian's 40th year on the road featuring remakes of tracks spanning Ian's entire career.

		After this, Tony Iommi decided to record a solo album and enlisted the help of longtime Sabbath keyboardist Geoff Nicholls (who was finally made an official member) and vocalist Glenn Hughes, formerly of Deep Purple and Trapeze.
		Tony Iommi also got engaged to famous female heavy metal star Lita Ford, and enlisted the help of her band's bassist (Dave "The Beast" Spitz) and drummer Eric Singer, (later of KISS and Alice Cooper) to round off the line-up.
		Iommi was greatly influenced both by Hank Marvin's playing on Cliff Richard and the Shadows' heavy-guitar based recordings and by jazz guitar, particularly that of Django Reinhardt.

		As expected, the highlight comes from Osbourne, who teams up with Iommi and Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler on "Who's Fooling Who?" a track that sounds much more authentic than either of the new songs on Sabbath's 1998 Reunion album.
		And now that Iommi has returned with a solo album, perhaps it's time for the healing to begin.
		Iommi's style has always been about repetition, and most of the songs follow his basic formula: an eerie, ethereal opener, followed by a heavy riff repeated several times during each verse, a slight variation on said riff for the chorus, an explosive breakdown featuring a wicked guitar solo and a spooky, drawn-out ending.

	Black Sabbath Online: Tony Iommi Interview - July 95
		Now Iommi is back on the road in support of the 25th Black Sabbath album, "Forbidden", on a tour which brings the band to Polonia Park July 17th for a much anticipated show with Motorhead.
		The new album marks a homecoming of sorts, reuniting Iommi and his long-time collaborator, Tony Martin, with renowned session drummer Cozy Powell and bassist Neil Murray in the line-up which produced the albums "Headless Cross" and "Tyr" in 1989 and 1990.
		Tony's contentment is all the more surprising considering recent reports he is being sued by Osbourne, who is attempting to recover $75,000 Ozzy claims he lent Iommi to get out of jail in time for Sabbath's scheduled reunion concert on November 15, 1992.

		Tony's been back in the studio recording his own solo CD, Fused, and he plans to tour to support the album after the Sabbath tour.

		Iommi's guitar skills and was mildly interested when this all-star-guest-singer (ala Santana) solo album was released.
		The bottom line is this: Iommi is a magnificent showcase of the talents of the man that invented the art of heavy metal guitar playing, with excellent songwriting, masterful riffs, and deftly woven solos that show why Tony Iommi is one of the most influential guitarists who has ever lived.
		Iommi is a God in the metal world and is regarded as a pioneer of heavy metal music.

		Iommi is a rather predictable but generally effective mix of its namesake's menacing riffs and modern-sounding vocals and drums.

	MTV News - Ozzfest Over, Sabbath Guitarist Tony Iommi Resumes Solo Career
		Incidentally, if you had asked Iommi two years ago what he hoped to be doing in 2005, he'd have said he wanted to be promoting a new Black Sabbath album, not a new Iommi disc.
		Iommi and Marlette started writing songs for Fused more than a year ago at Iommi's studio in Warwickshire, England.
		However, by committing so resolutely to Sabbath, Iommi has been unable to support the recent release of his second solo album, Fused, a granite-solid slab that sounds more like a groove-saturated cross between Deep Purple and Audioslave than anything by Sabbath.

		The overall mastering of this album was fucking incredible and Tony Iommi's guitar work was amazing.
		My favorite song on the album has to be Spiral Architect, Tony Iommi's guitar work on that song is great.
		I didnt include non Ozzy albums because theyre not my thing, and I didnt include Reunion because i dont honestly listen to it (but if i were to rank the two "new" songs on it, theyd be pretty far to the bottom.

		When Tony Iommi sat in the studio recording this album, he no doubt felt confident that it would be the milestone album that took Black Sabbath to new heights of popularity and made fans forget all about Ozzy Osbourne.
		This album is a hard rock classic..Iommi's guitar tones on this album, along with great vocals, neat songwriting, and a real sense of purpose (we're back without Ozzy, so check it out) made this the dio-sabbath mothership.
		Heaven And Hell is a milestone album, not for proving that there is life after Ozzy, but for introducing Ronnie James Dio - a relatively unknown vocalist - to the world.

	Tony Iommi Is Fused With Hughes
		Iommi plays well throughout this album although there is a lot of repetition and not a great amount of diversity; you hear a lot of typical heavy dark doom filled power chords - the opening track "Dopamine" sets the pace for that.
		This is Tony Iommi, the guitar man that literally created dark metal with his former group Black Sabbath, so your expectations for the heavy riffing will be fulfilledin the same instance, you will hear some great blues influenced riffing.
		Iommi displays some of his best playing on these tracks and the pace changes, going back and forth at the drop of a hat.

	BNR Metal Pages -- Black Sabbath
		Iommi and several lineups released several albums over the next decade, with only 1992's Dehumanizer, featuring a temporary return of Dio, sparking major interest, and the band gradually became more and more inactive as the nineties winded down.
		As such, guitarist Tony Iommi might well be considered the father of the metal guitar riff, his distinctive style really unlike anyone else at the time, influencing an infinite number of guitarists that have followed.
		Former Deep Purple frontman Ian Gillan was an odd, interesting choice to succeed Dio, and the resulting Born Again album was inconsistent and not terribly well received, though it clearly had it's moments with songs such as "Zero The Hero".

		A dissonant mixture of live tracks and home demos, the album is a beautiful lo-fi patchwork that catches MARK E. SMITH's quiet fury, and the band's true attitude and sound through intimate and funny versions of some of their most convincing tunes.
		Modern Masquerades is the fourth album of the Irish group and one of the rarest and most acclaimed records of ‘70s prog-rock to date.
		Originally released in 1982, the album is a hurricane of wall-of-sound brutality, delivered with DIY ethics and an apocalyptic and anti-establishment bravado.
