Aargh!!
Music overdose.
I just got Tesseract’s new one today and now Sabbath tomorrow.
I’m almost glad I get a two week break between these two and the new Queensryche.
I need time to properly digest all this awesomeness.
Oh, the video….pretty cool and I hate videos.

Mixed on the new Sabbath. Overall, not bad, some fine moments, no doubt. One of the songs sounds so similar to Planet Caravan. Still like all the Dio/Sabbath albums better than this one, has nothing to do with Ozzy. He actually surprised me, they kept him away from the vocal effects, so he sounds nothing like his solo albums for the past 20 years. Not a bad effort though, i was expecting worse.

R10: I have a hard time comparing the two (Dio/Ozzy Sabbath). They're like completely different entities IMO.

I agree with BG on this one…Sabbath nailed it.
This is the sound I was hoping for…old doom.
Glad I got the extended version even the bonus tracks are good.
You wanna put this one on, lay on the couch and veg out for an hour.
Ozzy sounds better than I ever could have hoped for.
I’m very happy with this purchase.

It's definately not one of Sharon's typical money grab schemes. Well written, great continuity and it sounds exactly as it should. An old Sabbath album. Perfect timing too. Just finished Tony's biography. Great read BTW if anyone's interested. \m/\m/

IOMMI'S SOLO ON "AGE OF REASON" IS THE CROWN JEWEL. THIS ALBUM IS GROWING ON ME LIKE A EUROPEAN BLACK PLAGUE.

R10: Are you talking about Zeitgeist in reference to Planet Caravan?

spiral: Agreed, that lead is tasty.

Yea BG, the one with the bongos, very similar to Planet Caravan. I've only listened to the album once, didn't hate it, but it didn't blow me away neither . I think some of Iommi's leads, and the bass work of Geezer carry this album. Surprisingly, Ozzy didn't destroy this like i thought he would. They didn't embarass themselves, a decent effort, worth the clams i spent at Wally world for it.

YOU CAN JUST IMAGINE IOMMI CLOSING HIS EYES AND GENTLY SHAKING HIS HEAD AS HE PLAYS THAT SUBLIME LEAD.

Hey BG, i read the Iommi book also. Great read. Not as funny as Ozzy's book, but very good anyways. Can't beleive Iommi joined Jethro Tull in 69, Sabbath might not have ever happened if he'd been happy in Tull.

I AGREE THAT ZEITGEIST IS LIKE A PLANET CARAVAN II. LONER IS LIKE AN IRON MAN II IN THAT IT CARRIES ON A SIMILAR THEME OF BEING AN OUTSIDER.

definitely not as hideous as I predicted, and I am quite happy about that...but then, its really not that great either...a bit boring actually. Brian nailed it, it makes a decent background soundscape for napping on the couch ;)

All in all, not a bad middle-of-the-end-of-the-road type record from a rumbling trio of old farts

I don't know, all this sounds like a Sabbath cover band to me. Black Sabbath wanting to be Black Sabbath.
