It may be immense, but let him go rant somewhere else. What the hell does everything he wrote have to do with the album review? Can someone explain it to me? Thanks.

Don't get me wrong, I adore Ozzy; as a teenager, I was always wearing a jacket and a t-shirt with his logo. I'm just saying that one should listen to Sabbath from '80 onwards without thinking that Osbourne came before. By doing so, perhaps we would reevaluate albums which—I'll repeat—beyond Mob Rules and the later Dehumanizer and Cross Purposes, which I don't find up to par, are very beautiful. Then again, it could be that I'm affected by the opposite syndrome, meaning that I'm such a big Sabbath fan that I can't admit that the post-Ozzy era hasn't lived up to the previous one. However, it must be acknowledged that singers like Ronnie Dio, Glenn Hughes, Ian Gillan, and even the underrated Martin may not possess the madman's charisma, but in terms of vocal talent, well, they certainly aren't inferior.

I apologize, I had forgotten a little group that no one knows, such DREAM THEATER.

Vincolla, perfectly encapsulate my thoughts.
In my opinion, the only current American band that can really hold its own against European bands is the legendary Type O Negative.

I may be conservative, but when I say "music review," I mean a proper "music review" and not some inconsistent and meaningless rambling. In my opinion, the album is very nice, and I wouldn’t be so drastic in negatively labeling the post-Ozzy career of Black Sabbath, quite the opposite. Up until Tyr, I repeat - in my opinion - Black Sabbath (with the exception of Mob Rules) produced some excellent albums (especially the one with Hughes and The Eternal Idol). If you have the prejudice that the true Sabbath are those with Ozzy (even though, in my view, Black Sabbath has always been Iommi's), it's clear that every subsequent work of theirs will be judged unworthy.

oops... I meant Legendary!

The greatest scoundrel in the history of music.

I’ll give you some advice for the next purges: the Costanzo couple (oops... maybe I wrote something stupid... I don’t know if they’re married) and the entire entourage of Buona Domenica and Domenica In. But are you sure you’re not the son of Sid Vicious?

Absolutely flawless the review for a very beautiful album that continues the journey started with Technical Ecstasy. A 5 in my opinion is a must for the entire Sabbath discography up to Tyr (except for Mob Rules), but perhaps I’m too biased. Unmissable.

I must admit that I am not very informed about the vicissitudes and history of this label, but I have read the review carefully and find it very interesting. As for the music, I don't know exactly how much Roadrunner influences a band's musical choices, and I also don't know how much it may have affected the commercial operation that, alas, led to the rise of that musical "genre" called nu metal. However, I cannot deny that among the signed bands, Type O Negative are definitely one of my favorites, the Cavalera brothers' Sepultura were what they were (which is to say a great band), and Fear Factory produced two excellent albums like Demanufacture and Archetype. Of course, if they truly contributed to the degradation of metal by helping the rise of bands like Slipknot or, even worse, Limp Bizkit, then one can only wish them all the worst...
