BLACK SABBATH

18th album from 1995 by the British BLACK SABBATH, a controversial work of Heavy Metal and dark Hard Rock where the band experimented with a more modern 90s-oriented approach without completely abandoning its classic identity. “Forbidden” features Tony Iommi’s trademark heavy and gloomy riffs alongside an unusual urban and decadent atmosphere rarely heard elsewhere in the band’s discography, eventually becoming one of the most debated and later reappraised albums of the Tony Martin era. Despite its uneven initial reception, the record contains several dark and powerful moments that show BLACK SABBATH exploring new shades during the mid-90s. Recommended for fans of DIO, TROUBLE, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY and CANDLEMASS.
