Our Take

Review: When it comes to heavy metal pioneers, Black Sabbath are pretty much the OGs. Their seventies output is the stuff of rock legend, and this album is no exception. From the moment you press play, you're transported back to a time when denim was king and glitter was a sin. The opening track sets the tone perfectly, with Tony Iommi's riffage hitting you like a ton of bricks. Ozzy Osbourne's distinctive vocals soar over the heavy instrumentation, creating a sound that is equal parts menacing and mesmerising. As the album progresses, you start to notice the subtle nuances in the band's songwriting. Tracks like "Iron Man" and "Paranoid" showcase Black Sabbath's ability to seamlessly blend fierce guitar solos with haunting melodies, creating a sonic experience that is both ferocious and transcendent. But it's not all doom and gloom. The band's cheeky sense of humour shines through on tracks like "Fairies Wear Boots", where they playfully riff on fantasy tropes in a way that only Black Sabbath could pull off. Overall, this album is a true classic. It's a must-listen for any rock fan, and a reminder of why Black Sabbath are considered one of the greatest bands of all time. So grab your leather jacket, turn up the volume, and let Black Sabbath take you on a wild ride through the seventies.

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.
