The USA pre-order links in the first post are now active. (Looks like these will be coming out on Rhino in America and Canada, and BMG in the UK.)

Joe Siegler at black-sabbath.com has reported that some of these may have a hype sticker on them that say they are remastered. BUT THEY ARE NOT REMASTERED, they are just being reissued to put them back on the market.

Both of these are very good albums and well worth having in the collection.

I will likely pick up Fused as I do not have the bonus tracks in my collection. I could be wrong about this, but I believe 2 of those 3 bonus songs were previously download only, and this will be the first time those songs have been on physical media.

Here is more info from Mr. Siegler's site:
