Right now I'm listening to the newest black sabbath album....its like fifteen years old now of course, but at this moment its new. YouTube ftw there since I can try before I buy...or steal feel kill whatever you kids call it these days. Now you probably want my opinion on it? I mean if your here some old guys trying to dress up and be evil again is probably of great concern to you so....I will help you out.
It's not over yet but so far...its reasonable...it sounds good and black sabbath with the doomy slow riffs, but then the solos are a bit more bright....as in recording quality bright, not sunshine and puppies...unless they are dead puppies left out in the sun to dehydrate like raisins for Ozzy to eat. Or prunes, whatever old people like to put in their coffee these days.
The albums almost an hour long too...i bet it took like three years for them to get it all together barring Iommi's illness....but oddly I think it and the treatment very well in an ironic way go along with the whole sabbath theme. Not saying that in a derogatory or casual humor way.....I mean Iommi was probably Christopher Lees best man at his wedding back three hundred years ago but still.....its good to see he can keep his shit together even under extreme duress.
Now as its playing I can tell you it is surely sabbath, with the riffs running out there like a mix of paranoid and mob rules styles....its pretty good. Now I think I heard a little poppy sounds in there...but hey old people forget and get lost...and Ozzy did have a disco album didn't he? Or was that just that kick ass 80's album Jake e lee did for him? no. Def not, its some kind of poppy sensational Carson Daily and Molly Cyrus riffs....blame Rick Ruben he probably cut the wrong tape.
So in closing with no spoilers in site, try the album. Then put on some black clothes, crosses and be all goth and shit again. I mean we fucking need it. Hot goth women, lots of cleavage and curves...black hair and appropriate make up? Yes Please. And guys dont get the same idea...it took a long time to get rid of that butt pilfering pirate patch nut in the eye Brian Warner...and we dont need a fucking sequel.
