Dingus Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) I've listened to this at least ten times today and it's getting better and better [quote name='megallica' timestamp='1366391170' post='2052054'] Cant say I hear any similarities in those two albums the metallica disc is an over produced sell out while dehumanizer is dark and raw sounding. If I was looking for a commercial sabbath album itd be never say die or seventh star There are a few good tracks on metallicas fifth album but the direction from justice to the black album seemed a bit like abandoning their past for an mtv friendly sound [/quote] On this subject , it's interesting to hear that some Metallica fans think that Black album was sellout because to me as a casual listener and not a fan of Metallica's music , it's still way too heavy to be commercial . Except for the tracks released as singles ( that are still very heavy by most standards ) that album is not very mainstream - accessible to my ears . You folks must want it [u]very[/u] heavy if you see that album as a sellout . Edited April 19, 2013 by Dingus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musicman20 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Must admit, this is quite cool. That bass tone GRINDS....love it. Very aggressive...and properly audible, unlike most modern metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynottfan Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I like the song but I would much rather have had Ronnie James singing it, Ozzy bless him still has something left, but i'm not sure what it is lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 After reading some of my pals comments on Facebook I had fairly low expectations for this, but liked it - not a patch on their early stuff, but a good solid track, keeping with the Metallica analogy I can see this album being their Death Magnetic - a decent album with some good songs but nothing you'd call a classic. Lovely bass sound though, I assume it's Lakland / Hartke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Better quality version without the radio announcements: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVfUimq2KeI[/media] Shame you can get it via iTunes at the moment. Anybody know what bass Geezer is playing on the new album? Sounds like a growly Precision pickup. Edited April 20, 2013 by dannybuoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds very much like a P Bass on this track to me . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Valdemar Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Just had a proper listen. I liked it, excellent mix and it's always a joy to hear Geezer properly ripping. Strange song to release first maybe, it's a very slow burner. Bu despite all this, I can't help feeling it sounds more like an Ozzy solo track than real Sabbath. Or more accurately, Sabbath trying to sound like what people expect them to. Make sense? Thought not... I'll still buy the album though.

Lowender Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I wouldn't think it so, but it sounds like an Ibby 5 string. Personally, I feel as if Sabbath have been copying themselves since the second album. (The first album is a masterpiece). Now, they're older and trying to add a little modern sensibility to their sound and it's just boring to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
