Our Take

When Black Sabbath announced they were releasing a live album titled "Headless in Osaka," fans around the world were left scratching their heads. Were they going for a spooky Halloween theme? Was it a reference to their iconic song "Headless Cross"? Or did they just lose a bet with Ozzy Osbourne? Regardless of the reasoning behind the album title, one thing is for sure: Black Sabbath still knows how to put on a killer live show. Recorded during their 2016 tour in Osaka, Japan, this album captures the band in all their heavy metal glory. From the haunting riffs of "War Pigs" to the thunderous drums of "Iron Man," Black Sabbath proves they can still rock out with the best of them. Ozzy's vocals may not be as pristine as they once were, but that only adds to the authentic, raw energy of their live performance. While some may argue that Black Sabbath's heyday is long behind them, "Headless in Osaka" serves as a reminder that these legends of metal can still pack a punch. So grab your pentagram necklace, throw up your devil horns, and crank up this album for a heavy metal experience you won't soon forget. Overall, a solid live recording from one of the pioneers of heavy metal.

About the artist

Black Sabbath

Black Sabbath: The Godfathers of Heavy Metal Formed in Birmingham in 1968, Black Sabbath is widely regarded as the pioneers of heavy metal music. With their dark and ominous sound, the band changed the landscape of rock music forever. Led by the iconic frontman Ozzy Osbourne, the band's self-titled debut album in 1970 was a game-changer, laying the foundation for what would become an illustrious career. Tracks like "Paranoid" and "Iron Man" have become anthems for headbangers around the world. But it wasn't just their music that set them apart. Black Sabbath's imagery and stage presence were equally influential. From Ozzy's wild antics to Tony Iommi's menacing guitar riffs, the band created a larger-than-life persona that captured the imagination of fans everywhere. Despite lineup changes over the years, Black Sabbath continued to push the boundaries of their genre, experimenting with different sounds while staying true to their roots. Whether it was the doom-laden melodies of "Black Sabbath" or the more experimental vibe of "Sabotage," the band always managed to keep their fans on their toes. And let's not forget their influence on future generations of musicians. Everyone from Metallica to Pantera has cited Black Sabbath as a major inspiration, solidifying their place in music history. So, whether you're a die-hard metalhead or just a casual listener, it's impossible to deny the impact that Black Sabbath has had on the music industry. They are truly the godfathers of heavy metal, and their legacy will continue to live on for generations to come.
