8pints Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Black sabbath, 13, greatest comeback album ever? Absolutely gobsmacked at how good this album is, to anyone that wrote sabbath off then listen to this album because it will blow your mind, already a sabbath classic?? Hell yea!! That's high praise as you're not that keen on Sabbath are you? It is a fantastic album, Dear Father and Live Forever are my current favourite tracks. I don't want to live forever but I don't want to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to live forever but I don't want to die. sabbath is like a kid to me I love them so much, huge part of my life, I was really nervous about hearing the album incase I had to try and force myself to really like it but from the first few seconds till the last few seconds I loved it and I'm so proud of them, iommi absolutely is first class, the riffs the solo's, really aint just saying this because I'm a sabbath freak but its such a good album 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Lyrically it sounded a bit meh. Track three is decent, but the rest I can take or leave. Some good Iommi stuff but I'm not a great fan of Ozzy's vocal. Preferred Dio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preferred Dio I definately prefered ozzy over dio, loved ozzys image in the 70s and 80s but I must admit sabbath have never done a bad album with dio, heaven and hell and mob rules are classics, I liked the lyrics on the album but I get why some fans would not, I thought iommi was flawless, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted June 6, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted June 6, 2013 Such a masterpiece. The doors,The soft parade Not everyone's cup of tea, but that's my favourite Doors album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Such a masterpiece. The doors,The soft parade Not everyone's cup of tea, but that's my favourite Doors album. a lot of people rank it as the worst doors album but I find it very easy to listen to and it ay a bad album at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted June 7, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Yep. The Soft Parade is very underrated. Blood on the Tracks, though... Also well worth hunting down the "first version" outtakes. Some of them have cropped up on Dylan comps, but the best set is on the Blood on the Tapes bootleg. "Up To Me" should have been on the album. Edited June 7, 2013 by mjmooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Dead Elephant - Lowest Shared Descent "Claustrophobic, visceral, vicious, heavy, psychedelic, unpredictable" - sums it up pretty nicely. Properly good Italian metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 'Watch With Teacher' Themes & interludes from TV 60's - 80's, nicely remastered. Some may be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1aRgVBSWw4, others Not the tracks I'd wanted to link, but very few of the tracks are on the Tube, Spotify or Grooveshark. There's a few hauntingly familiar melodies for the UK based 30+ contingent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Caterina Valente - 'The One & Only' Shoddy cover, but it's on the posh German label Bear Family. International recordings in 8 languages. one of the few tracks on YT, a Greek number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarjei Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I'm really liking the new National album. Have listened through it maybe ten times. Up there with The Boxer for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 This is the sound of all my hopes and dreams for the last ~8 years being fulfilled, track by beautiful freaking track. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
