rather not listen to youtubes though.
nigga we spent all this time
a lot of these are fairly scarce to find most places in immediacy, and this is good sound quality.
listen to themmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

i rather like that one too. you heard warlord?
they have three, which ones do you have? they're all damn good anyway, though they never really reached greatness. i tend to like the oddball debut the most.
Listen to THAT Budgie song. THAT one please.
^I don't even like that song when Death does it.
it rules, it's the one album i normally recommend as representative of NWOBHM. 'sorceress' is one of my absolute favourite heavy metal songs.
Leather Leone FTW.
Angel of Death is also fucking sweet.
Heaven and Hell - The Devil You Know
I'm on track 3 right now, and this is bloody BRILLIANT!

Iommi still has it.
If by "still has it" you mean still has the same lack of creativity he displayed on all the shitty Sabbath albums of the '80s and '90s, then yeah, he still has it.
This album was just another disappointment - but even more so considering that it was FOURTEEN YEARS since the last Sabbath album. I would have hoped that Iommi could write at least ONE good song in all that time!
Performance-wise it's okay, but there's really nothing exceptional about the playing. The solos are all pretty tame, the drumming is fucking boring as hell, and although Dio can still yell pretty well for a 66-year-old, his lyrics, and the way he delivers them, are mind-numbingly stupid - right on par with his worst solo stuff.
Sorry, but these guys are barely even shadows of what they used to be.

Sorry, I know the truth hurts.
