The four members of Heaven & Hell had been making music and playing live shows as Black Sabbath since 1980. When they went on tour in 2007, they renamed themselves Heaven & Hell. Iommi stated that the fans would probably expect Ozzy Era songs, and he did not want fans to be confused and expect songs like Iron Man, War Pigs, Paranoid, etc.[1]
The band ended after Dio died from stomach cancer in 2010.[2]
