DankNuggs 305 Posted June 19, 2013 I sort of heard Ozzy on Howard Stern talking about it... Tough to really understand WTF he is saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WahooJim 4 Posted June 19, 2013 As a huge Sabbath fan, and metal fan in general, the first three songs released are a huge disappointment to me. They all sound the same and there is no musical dexterity there. Just a few simple chords and a really formulaic vocal style. I will listen to the entire disc a few times before I pass judgment, but I'm not optimistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Savage Beast 1 Posted June 19, 2013 I listened to the new Sabbath album called 13 on youtube. It sucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have listened to about the 1st 7 or so songs 2-3 times. To some degree, I can agree with your comments, but it sounds like Sabbath. I think Ozzy and Iommi sound great though not super inventive.

kutulu 1,595 Posted June 20, 2013 You can't compare it with their early stuff but not bad for their age and not creating music together for so long, imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kutulu 1,595 Posted June 20, 2013 On the chart success of BLACK SABBATH's new album, "13": Ozzy: "I knew it was a focking good album, but when somebody just told me it's gone top in fifty countries — I didn't know there were fifty countries, and I'm number one in all of them! I'm just devastated." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To some degree, I can agree with your comments, but it sounds like Sabbath. I think Ozzy and Iommi sound great though not super inventive. God is Dead, Age of Reason, Dear Father. The stuff they made with Dio and even with Glenn Hughes was so much better than this. It's like Ozzy is so limited that the band holds back to accommodate his limitations.
