Black Sabbath (Official Thread)

[E-Z]

Yeah i like the FORBIDDEN album myself although i never went much on THE SEVENTH STAR with Glen Hughes on vocals to reminiscence of DEEP PURPLE from the 1970s for me although i recently bought the 'Deluxe edition' of THE SEVENTH STAR but i've never played it and may never will?.

Ill probably collect all the Sabbath albums even ones I don't really consider myself a fan of just because I like to believe an album over time will grow on me even if it takes a lot of listens.

With TECHNICAL ECSTASY in particular Tony Iommi was trying to boarded Black Sabbath's appeal to reach a wider audience and move away from the previous albums heavy rock/metal formula but of course Sabbath fan's didn't want it but to be honest i actually like TECHNICAL ECSTASY it's filled with lots of good heavy rock tracks.

Listen to the album with 'open ears' metal fan's it's really a great listen.

Dirty Women is really the only song on that album that I really dig. Years ago, I didn't even like that one, but when I gave it a few more listens, at least that song did stick out as the best on the album (for me).

That number DIRTY WOMEN has a 'great track' and wot makes it great (to me at any rate) is first Ozzy's lyrics about 'women of the night out on the streets' but also Tony's guitar solo that builds and builds towards the solo and when it comes he stomps on the wah-wah pedal and takes off into 'heavy rock heaven' it's just brilliant!!.

Rock fan's everywhere give it a listen!.

 

[Riff Raff]

Ill give Technical another listen, since it has been months since the last.

[Riff Raff]

That was confirmed a couple of weeks ago.

 

[E-Z]

That was confirmed a couple of weeks ago.

Ok Riff Raff i wasn't aware of it.

 

[Riff Raff]

I hear he has still be writing material despite all of that. Damn such a positive attitude despite that is admirable.

 

[E-Z]

Yeah according to Geezer they're all up beat about writing and recording a new album Tony included?.

God if that was me i'd be well p*****d off BIG TIME!!.
