Our Take

DIO – The Studio Albums 1996-2004

Dio! The man, the myth, the legend! Known for his powerful vocals and epic rock anthems, this box set showcases some of his later works from the late '90s and early 2000s.

First up, we have Angry Machines, Dio's 1996 album that sees him venturing into heavier, more aggressive territory. With tracks like "Institutional Man" and "Stay Out of My Mind," Dio proves he still has plenty of fire in his belly.

Moving on to Magica, released in 2000, we see Dio embracing his fantastical side with a concept album about a magical land where good and evil battle it out. The result is a mesmerising blend of storytelling and heavy metal riffs that will transport you to another realm.

Next, we have Killing the Dragon, unleashed in 2002, which sees Dio returning to his roots with blistering guitar solos and thunderous drums. Tracks like "Push" and "Rock & Roll" showcase Dio at his most devilish and devilishly good.

Finally, we come to Master of the Moon, Dio's 2004 swansong. With its haunting melodies and powerful lyrics, this album serves as a fitting end to Dio's illustrious career. Tracks like "One More for the Road" and "The Eyes" are a testament to Dio's enduring legacy in the world of rock music.

Overall, this box set is a must-have for any Dio fan, showcasing the evolution of a rock icon in his later years. So crank up the volume, raise your horns, and let Dio's music transport you to a world where rock reigns supreme. Indulge in the beauty that is Dio – The Studio Albums 1996-2004.

About the artist

Dio

DIO: The Heavy Metal Legend Who Rocked the Gods When it comes to powerhouse vocals and shredding guitar solos, few can top the iconic Dio. With a career spanning decades and a voice that could move mountains, this heavy metal maestro has solidified his place in rock 'n' roll history. Born Ronald James Padavona in New Hampshire, Dio rose to fame as the frontman of bands like Rainbow and Black Sabbath before embarking on a successful solo career. His distinctive wailing vocals and mystical lyrics have captivated fans around the globe, earning him a spot amongst the all-time greats of heavy metal. But Dio wasn't just a talented musician - he was also a true showman. With his signature devil horn hand gesture and flamboyant stage presence, he commanded attention wherever he went. Whether he was belting out anthems like "Holy Diver" or "Rainbow in the Dark", Dio knew how to electrify a crowd like no one else. Despite his larger-than-life persona, Dio remained humble and down-to-earth throughout his career. He was known for his kindness towards fans and fellow musicians, earning him a reputation as one of the nicest guys in rock. Tragically, Dio passed away in 2010, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire new generations of rockers. His music lives on, a testament to the enduring power of passion and creativity in the world of heavy metal. So raise your horns in salute to the one and only Dio - a true legend of the genre and a force to be reckoned with. Long live rock 'n' roll, and long live Dio.
