Black Sabbath – Sabotage (2009 Remaster)

The title "Sabotage" refers to Black Sabbath's legal disputes with former manager Patrick Meehan. This dispute, which lasted 10 months, overshadowed the recordings and shaped the basic mood. Under the production of guitarist Tony Iommi - once again recorded in England the focus was on a direct, aggressive sound. Tony Iommi explained that it was part of the concept to return to "rock'n'roll". The cover artwork is considered to be one of the worst in rock history The band claims to have believed that these were test recordings, which is why no importance was attached to the wardrobe.

"Sabotage" is Black Sabbath's bold, ambitious statement of defiance. Packed with intricate riffs, complex arrangements and raw energy, it mixes heavy metal with prog and hard rock influences. Tracks like "Hole in the Sky" and "Symptom of the Universe" show the band pushing their sound to new limits, capturing both tension and power. It's a high stakes, high reward album that shows Sabbath at their most restless and creative.
