Thoughts on the new Sabbath album?

Tis better than I was fearing it would be. A good mix of different elements that made up the band over the years. Lots of old school riffing, blues, and heavy Dio era riffs. I'll be spending a bit more time with it for sure.

I haven't got my hands on it yet, but I do hope too in the next few days

Thanks for the reminder! I just found it on Spotify and will give my thoughts when I've given it a proper listen.

Very dry. Not a single particularly enjoyable song on it, a few outright painful ones, I give it one and a half thumbs down. The only saving grace is they aren't doing any embarrassing collaborations or trying to 'modernise' their sound.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Loner was the only track I didn't feel real good about. The rest I look forward to hearing again.

I have only had one listen, and in all honesty, it wasn't very memorable, but in saying that, with a few more listens I am sure it will grow on me. It's Sabbath, it better

Gave it half a spin and found the first few songs long and boring.
Tommi can still slay on guitar and Geezer is a master ofthe bass but finding Ozzy's vocals weaker and weaker these days -way too much machine to keep them up & going.
To be honest, this album makes me wish that they did get to make one last -entirely new song- album with Dio before he died under the Sabbath name. Even to the end he was a far better singer than Ozzy will ever be.

It just seems like a nostalgia cash in album will give it further chances to grow on me.
