The lineup of guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Terry "Geezer" Butler, frontman Ronnie James Dio and drummer Vinnie Appice will hit the road to promote The Devil You Know starting today May 5th in Bogota, Colombia, touring South America before moving on to Europe in late May. North American dates are expected to follow in August. Additionally, the band already has plenty of material written for another studio album.<\/p>\n

Iommi adds:<\/p>\n

"There were loads of ideas. We've got enough to make another album if we wanted. We probably wouldn't use that stuff again, but we had more than enough for The Devil You Know. We're gonna be pretty tied up in touring for a bit, he added, "and then when it comes to what we're gonna do afterwards, I don't know. But I'm sure we'll sort that out."<\/p>\n

He also said the new album was easier to make than 1992's Dehumanizer, which was the last album they did with this lineup, though it was then under the moniker of Black Sabbath. The group recorded the new CD in the same place as 17 years earlier – Rockfield Studios in Wales – after some writing sessions at Dio's home studio in Los Angeles.
 
"It was very different," Iommi said. "We had a lot of pre-production time. When we'd done previous stuff like the Dehumanizer album, we went into a room and just started from scratch with no ideas, so everybody would just be jamming around until we'd come up with something. This time it was just a lot easier 'cause we already had a lot of ideas we could start off with." <\/p>\n
