As previously reported, Classic Rock has heard three unfinished tracks from Heaven And Hell’s debut album. In a world-exclusive they visited vocalist Ronnie James Dio, guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler and drummer Vinny Appice on the final day of tracking at Rockfield Studios in Wales.

Some final touches were still to be added; for example Iommi wanted to add guitar solos at his home studio, and the material was in an unmixed state.

Due to be released in late April, the album’s ten tracks were co-produced by the group and engineer Mike Exeter.

The songs we heard were a moody, thuddingly malevolent number called 'Rock ’N’ Roll Jesus', the pacier and more anthemic 'Neverwhere', and a slice of sloth-like majesty that’s likely to be titled 'Breaking Into Heaven'.

Other tracks expected to appear include 'Bible Black', 'Double Pain' and 'Atom + Evil'.
