Excerpts from Ronnie for "Angry Machines":
"In 1996 we released "Angry Machines", the album that would follow Strange Highways, the project that would bring a new guitarist, bassist, and keyboard player to the Dio band. "Angry Machines" proved to be a much more transitional than any thing we had done before. It was more rhythmically slanted and more lyrically and musically "angry" then any Dio album that preceded it. Listen to it with an attitude. That's the way we made it."

From the beginning, RONNIE JAMES DIO has always pursued a brand of music that proudly existed outside of any prevailing trends, along the way selling millions of albums all over the world and building one of the most devoted concert followings of any rock group.
RONNIE JAMES DIO, a native of a small town near Syracuse, New York, grew up in a tightly-knit community of family and friends. His twin interests were music and romantic fantasy literature such as the works of Sir Walter Scott and the Arthurian legend. These would play an important role later on in the development of his musical persona.

RONNIE studied trumpet as a teen, but switched to bass when he discovered Rock ‘n’ Roll. He formed the band ELF in the early 70,s, and recorded several LP’s with them. As DEEP PURPLE’s opening act, RONNIE came to know RITCHIE BLACKMORE, and later formed RAINBOW with the guitar master. After three years and five albums, DIO left RAINBOW to become lead singer for BLACK SABBATH. He recorded two studio albums with them, HEAVEN AND HELL and MOB RULES, in addition to a live album, LIVE EVIL.

Soon realizing there was more personal vision to follow, DIO parted company with co-writer TONY IOMMI and SABBATH, stripping down to his soul as he began to structure a band built around his name.
Garnering a reputation as „THE VOICE“ early on in his career, the heavy metal wailer ‘s frontman for years to come. Both sides of the Atlantic would blister with the impact of DIO’s full throttle writing and sound.

The critically acclaimed mastery of DIO has been unrelenting through massive sellers: HOLY DIVER, THE LAST IN LINE, SACRED HEART, INTERMISSION, DREAM EVIL, LOCK UP THE WOLVES, STRANGE HIGHWAYS, ANGRY MACHINES, THE LAST IN LIVE, MAGICA, KILLING THE DRAGON and MASTER OF THE MOON.
