There are at least two groups with this name.

1. A group composed of current and former members of Black Sabbath.
2. An electronic group from Contraseña Records who have released the Alive & Kicking (Single).

Heaven and Hell were a music collaboration featuring current Black Sabbath members Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler along with former members Ronnie James Dio (RIP) and Vinny Appice. Founding member Iommi decided to name the group Heaven and Hell as the original lineup of Black Sabbath (featuring Butler, Iommi, Bill Ward and Ozzy Osbourne) is still active but on hiatus. Ward was originally part of the Heaven and Hell line-up, but it was announced on the fan-run Black Sabbath website that he was standing aside for Appice.

The possibility of a reunion of the lineup which created the Black Sabbath album Heaven And Hell in 1980 was first announced on the Spanish site Rafabasa on September 28, 2006; however with Appice in place of Ward the line-up is now that which recorded the 1981 album Mob Rules. Dio had previously announced that he and Iommi had written a new track for a proposed Black Sabbath box set consisting of music from the two periods in which he was present in the band. This set, Black Sabbath: The Dio Years, is a single-CD release featuring three new tracks, ‘Shadow of the Wind’, ‘The Devil Cries’ and ‘Ear in the Wall’.

The reunion was officially confirmed by an announcement on Tony Iommi’s official website.

    I tag Martin era albums as Black Sabbath unless they decide to reform the band under a new name. Therefore I'll tag Headless Cross under the new name.

    No, it was Black Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio, and later with Vinny Appice too. So how do you tag Martin era albums? Headless Cross? He has a band called Headless Cross with Geoff Nicholls... They both were in Black Sabbath, it's the same situation. :P

    The exact same project as the one for Heaven And Hell, Mob Rules and Dehumanizer...

  • Noxbi

    Technically(!) it's just another project/band of Dio, Iommi, Butler and Appice...

    They just changed their name. If this album would be under the Black Sabbath name then I wouldn't be brothered.
