Somehow I don't think \"Dokken\" is a similar artist to this DOOM classic by Sabbath with Ian Gillan. This record broke my record player because it's SO FREAKIN HEAVY!!! One word: Tone. Yeahhhhh.
The band consists of Gillan/Iommi/Butler/Ward on this album. Bev Bevan played drums on the tour.
Former singer from Deep Purple cranks it out hard and shows why in his era he was considered one of the all time greatest rock singers ever. Gillan is the highlight here and any sabbath fan can tell this was written and produced around him. This is nothing compared to Sabbath's first album but there are some good for sure. Check out Gillans earlier work with Deep Purple. They have added new albums here at emusic including classics like Machine Head.
Like most post-Ozzy Sabbath albums, this one has hits and misses... But the hits here are incredible. Gillen brings something to Sabbath that's totally unexpected. He does wicked better than the Prince of Darkness himself. Once you hear Disturbing the Priest your mind will be blown. Mine was, back in '83.
This is a jaw-dropping album. It is Ian Gillen from Deep Purple on vocals. He brings an evilness and darkness to Sabbath I didn't think possible! Listen to Disturbing the Priest (but make sure to start with the intro Stonehenge), Trashed, and Zero the Hero to convince yourself this is a masterpiece, then get the rest!
Pure metal...I love this CD. It makes me with Ian had done a few albums with Sabbath. However emusic has the drummer wrong, it's the great BILL WARD back on drums for t Sabbath!!!
Geezer Butler, Ian Gillan, and Bev Bevan. Not a great Sabbath album, but an overlooked gem in their catalog and a curiosity worth checking out for Gillan fans as well.
do not listen to critics. this album is great. of course emusic has the artists wrong. its the great Ian Gillen on vocals, I saw them at Reading 1983, awesome!!!!!
I had this on LP when it came out, and if I'm not mistaken, it is former Deep Purple frontman Ian Gillen on vocals, not Glenn Hughes, though Gillen left the band shortly thereafter
