Angry Machines


Angry Machines is the seventh studio album from the American heavy metal band Dio. It was released first in Japan on October 4, 1996, by Mercury Music Entertainment with 11 tracks and in the USA on October 15, 1996, on Mayhem Records but with only 10 tracks. It was the last studio album to feature original drummer Vinny Appice.

Reissue

In 2019, Angry Machines was remastered and announced for reissue in 2020. While the first disc is identical to the original North American and European releases, the second disc contains live tracks recorded on various dates of the Angry Machines tour. The track "God Hates Heavy Metal", exclusive to Japanese pressings of the album, was not included in the reissue.
