I've come to accept this album over the years. I'm glad you talked about the production. It is very muddy! However, there are some really good songs on here!

I actually like this album quite a bit - some good songs!

One minor note of correction: it's Gillan, not Gillian.

This was hard to listen to at first, but the more I listen the better it gets. Ian Gillan does not mesh too well with Iommi's style, but again you get use to it. I like this album, but I don't think that it is an 81/100. Maybe a 75ish.

Nice to see some more obscure Sabs getting reviewed.

The production is the weakest side of this album. Great songs and awesome line up. 85/100 at least.

Huge avatar! But welcome, bro. Indeed the production could be better.

The album could just lose a lot of the filler. Its not the bands worst but there is an unholy amount of boring cock rock songs, and the vocalist sounds like Michael Bolton at times. Zero the Hero, the titletrack, and Digital bitch are good songs though.
