  • Episode 542-Black Sabbath-Dehumanizer
    Dec 12 2025

    This week on America’s Podcast, we dive into a lost classic from the Black Sabbath catalog — Dehumanizer. Joining us are family members Travis Perrotta and Tim Wirasnik as we crank up the Dio-era heaviness and ask the big questions:

    How does this album sound to our ears? Is this a top-tier Dio-fronted Sabbath record… or does it fall flat on its demonic face?

    No spoilers — you’ve gotta listen to hear whether we bow to the riffs or banish them back to the underworld.

    Tracks of the Week:

    • Travis: Type O Negative – Black No. 1 (and if the song gets too long for you… you officially have our permission to fast-forward, Pete Steele will understand) • Mooger: Wolfmother – Dimension • Jerry: Florence Black – Colored In • Tim: AC/DC – What’s Next to the Moon • Marc: The Bangles – Hazy Shade of Winter

    Until next week, remember: You are Legion, we rock, and we miss Ronnie James Dio every single day.

Is this an album worth your time, or will it have you questioning your life choices? 🤯 (No spoilers… but we might need therapy after this one.)

    🔥 Tracks of the Week: 🎧 Mooger’s Pick: Dishwalla – Counting Blue Cars (he’s still asking God those same questions) 🎸 Marc’s Pick: Ugly Kid Joe – She’s Already Gone (but he’s still holding her CD collection hostage) 💥 Travis’ Pick: Rage Against the Machine – Bullet in the Head (for when you need calm, relaxing meditation music 😂) 🤘 Jerry closes it out with Stone Broken – I Believe (and we believe he’s the nice one in the group)
