Sabotage ReviewThere are a few things I gotta say about Sabotage, Black Sabbath's sixth album: First, it's one of my favorites. Probably my favorite over Paranoid just because I've heard Paranoid way too many times in my life. Secondly, that this is the decline of Sabbath. No doubts about that. If you think differently and are a huge fan of Technical Ecstasy, well... you're insane! This was the last time that Sabbah were all on the same page. Sure there are little bits and pieces of greatness after Sabotage, but very little. Sabotage is a grand and glorious rock epic! This is probably the only album that Sabbath put out that flowed perfectly! Where they started to experiment on Vol. 4 and Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath, Sabotage is the culmination of all that. Whoa! Taking a two-year hiatus from touring and recording will do that to you. Everything falls into place. Also, what a great album cover. Ozzy wearing a dress and those really cool giant-heeled suede Elton John boots. Bill Ward in his red spandex pants with his checkered underwear showing through. Geezer with a cane. The 70s! Wow!
Hole In The Sky - Great song! I'm looking through a hole in the sky, I'm seeing nowhere through the eyes of a lie.... Great lyrics Great riffs. The productin value was probably Sabbath's best. Rocking!
Don't Start (Too Late) - Iommi finally did it, he made his little instrumental show-off pieces fit into the rest of the album without throwing it for a loop! Cool little 50 second accoustic blurb that heads right into one of Sabbath last classic cuts.
Symptom Of The Universe - All out metal goodness! This is one is one of those signaure Sabbath tunes that you will alway remember. Yeaaaaaahhhh!
Megalomania - Sprawling! That's is what this song is: sprawling! What a killer epic tune! This song is haunting. One of my personal favorites! Moody and dark and whoa! I love this song! The ghost of violence was something I'd seen. I sold my soul to be the human obscene.... Great!
The Thrill Of It All - Another personal favorite. The lyrical content on Sabotage grew to maturity seemingly overnight. Since Geezer wrote most of the lyrics I'm not sure you can blame Ozzy for most of the juvenile, hilarious lyrics of the past Sabbath albums, but these songs are definitely better written. Perhaps Ozzy was lending a hand? Can I ask the final question if the answer could be sold? Perfect.
Superzar - Sprawling instumental with moaning chior in the background. This is epic. No doubt about that. Are we in some dank, creepy monastery? Sounds like it. This is mood music for a human sacrifice. Beautiful. Cohesive to the rest of the album.
Am I Going Insane (Radio) - Pobably the most recognized song off the album becaus of it's induction onto the greatest hits collection We Sold Our Soul For Rock'N'Roll. Great song. Sabbath really clicked for the last time on this album.
The Writ - Apparently Black Sabbath as an entity were having a lot of legal problems at this time and Ozzy said once that they couldn't go onstage without getting served with a writ or a restraining order or whatever. Thus the birth of this lengthy album ender. Killer tune. Epic along the lines of the rest of the album. Fits perfectly into the Sabotage lineup.
Overall, Sabotage is the most consistent album Sabbath ever came out with. All the songs mesh into a whole and that was very hard for Sabbath accomplish over the years. The fact that they tok a two-year break before recording Sabotage suggests that they needed to be away from each other to come back and make some good music. If Paranoid is their landmark album, then Sabotage is their perfect album. What goes wrong after this is warring egos and drug-addiction and the end of Black Sabbath. Sorry. All good things must eventually come to an end.
Dig it!
