American Metal rock singer Ronnie James Dio passed away on Sunday morning at his 67 years of age.

 

As reported in his website, Dio was under treatment at a hospital in Houston, Texas. The statement of his death was confirmed by Los Angeles publicist Maureen O'Connor. He was suffering from Stomach Cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy.

 

He was a vocalist and song writer and performed with Elf, Rainbow, apart from Black Sabbath and ofcourse his own Band Dio. He popularized the "Devil's Horn" hand gesture in metal culture.  In 1975 he became famous as the first lead singer of the heavy metal band, Rainbow. Dio replaced Ozzy Osbourne in Black Sabbath in 1980 in album Heaven & Hell, which is considered by critics as the first heavy metal album.

 

He possessed a great voice in the heavy metal and it is a great loss to the heavy metal music arena.
