“The Devil You Know” is either the first album by Heaven and Hell or the third studio set from the third lineup of Black Sabbath. Either way, guitarist Tony Iommi says there’s much more where that came from.

“There were loads of ideas,” Iommi said. “We’ve got enough to make another album if we wanted.
