Guest deanB Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 6 hours ago, BuzzzFuzzz said: Agreed man. No disaster, but it was compromised. No Bill Ward. For me Metal is centred around the drummer, no disrespect intended to thundering bass, riffing and shredding, just my youth as a weekend drummer. So he is sadly missed from this one. I saw them play in Brisbane and it was a great gig with great sound. I don't have the high end gear, knowledge, or ears for picking up on digital compression and clipping (something I've never really concentrated on), but I can hear when something sounds bad. Rick Rubin copped some flack for them on this production, maybe with reason, but the Record sounds pretty good to me. I respect their return to the roots for this Album, and I like to listen to their first one coupled with this one. It's difficult to pick my favourite Sabbath Album, but this isn't it. I think it's a great Album though, and it does get a few spins here. Cheers Mate, Ant. I didn't have to read the liner notes to realise that Bill Ward was missing. The synergy with Geezer has always enthralled, a personal hall of fame combo for me. I saw them in Perth last year and enjoyed the occasion, but yeah. Picking a favourite Black Sabbath album is kind of pointless, they're all great, but I am particularly fond of Sabotage, it was one of those right time and place albums from my hedonistic youth. Cheers Ant, Dean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monk Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Just to mix it up a bit, let's go with some Run The Jewels. Probably too much bass for this time of night , but oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
