1st official live album from 1983 by the British BLACK SABBATH, a monumental blast of Heavy Metal and epic Hard Rock recorded during the “Mob Rules” tour with Ronnie James Dio on vocals. “Live Evil” captures the band at an absolutely spectacular moment, combining the classic darkness of the Ozzy era with the epic and melodic power of the Dio period through intense, heavy and energy-filled performances. Featuring a setlist packed with immortal anthems and the masterful partnership of Tony Iommi and Dio at the height of their powers, the album remains one of the greatest classic live records in Heavy Metal history. Recommended for fans of DIO, RAINBOW, JUDAS PRIEST and DEEP PURPLE.
3rd album from 1971 by the British BLACK SABBATH, an absolutely fundamental work in the history of Heavy Metal and Doom Metal that pushed the band’s sound into even darker, heavier and more oppressive territory. “Master Of Reality” is filled with monolithic riffs, dense atmospheres and a sickly, narcotic feeling that would go on to define the foundations of Doom Metal for decades. Featuring immortal classics such as “Sweet Leaf”, “Children Of The Grave” and “Into The Void”, the album firmly established BLACK SABBATH as the true architects of heavy Metal. A gigantic, gloomy and eternally influential record. Recommended for fans of SAINT VITUS, TROUBLE, ELECTRIC WIZARD and CATHEDRAL.
10th album from 1981 by the British BLACK SABBATH, a powerful and dark work of Heavy Metal and epic Hard Rock that solidified the brilliant Ronnie James Dio era of the band. “Mob Rules” features a heavier, more aggressive and gloomier sound than its predecessor “Heaven And Hell”, combining Tony Iommi’s monumental riffs with Dio’s epic vocals and unmatched charisma. Packed with immortal classics such as “The Sign Of The Southern Cross”, “Falling Off The Edge Of The World” and the title track “Mob Rules”, the album became one of the essential pillars of early 80s Heavy Metal. Recommended for fans of DIO, RAINBOW, JUDAS PRIEST and SAVATAGE.
8th album from 1978 by the British BLACK SABBATH, a peculiar and experimental work of Heavy Metal and Hard Rock where the band explored new influences and sonic directions during an especially turbulent period. “Never Say Die!” combines Tony Iommi’s classic dark riffs with more melodic, progressive and even Jazz Rock-oriented elements in certain passages, showcasing BLACK SABBATH attempting to expand their sound beyond their traditional roots. Although it was considered a lesser album within their discography for many years, it has gradually been reappraised by many fans thanks to its unique personality and decadent, melancholic atmosphere. Recommended for fans of RAINBOW, URIAH HEEP, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT and DEEP PURPLE.
Unofficial live album, limited to 150 copies on 2-LP in marbled-blue wax with gatefold cover, containing a 15-track show at Civic Arena, Pittsburgh (PA/USA) on 02.09.1978
12th album from the British BLACK SABBATH, released in 1986, a peculiar and highly underrated work of Hard Rock and melodic Heavy Metal marked by a far more accessible and atmospheric sound than usual for the band. Originally conceived as a solo album by Tony Iommi and ultimately released under the name BLACK SABBATH featuring Tony Iommi, “Seventh Star” combines elegant riffs, melancholic melodies and a strong 80s flavour with the incredible voice of Glenn Hughes on vocals. A dark, emotional and unique record within the band’s discography that has gradually earned cult status among the more open-minded followers of the Tony Iommi era. Recommended for fans of DEEP PURPLE, RAINBOW, DIO and BLUE MURDER.
7th album from 1976 by the British BLACK SABBATH, a daring and experimental work of Heavy Metal and Hard Rock where the band began incorporating more melodic, progressive and sophisticated influences into their trademark dark sound. “Technical Ecstasy” showcases BLACK SABBATH exploring new musical territory through keyboards, more elaborate arrangements and a cleaner production, while still retaining Tony Iommi’s heavy riffs and the band’s unmistakable gloomy atmosphere. A controversial yet highly interesting record that reflects a band striving to evolve and expand its creative boundaries during the 70s. Recommended for fans of DEEP PURPLE, RAINBOW, URIAH HEEP and BLUE ÖYSTER CULT.
