I like every one of these except for Ugly Kid Joes version of NIB. The rest are awesome. The sequel album NIB 2 is good too. There are some great quotes on the insert so try to get the artwork with the cd.
I was told it was only available to label execs. The Second disc is the "New Testament" perfomed by the cover bands.
The songs don't have to match exactly too be good. This is one of the better tributes out there.
Disc one is the "Old Testament" perfomed by Black Sabbath. Most of the tracks you can find on the particular artists own library somewhere.
I have the two disc version titled "The Bible According To Black Sabbath". It was a limited release by Columbia/Concrete with different back cover and the words "Demonstration Not For Sale".
I'd love to get my hands on another copy.
2 1/2Luke-warm tribute to the Metal godfathers feels a little unnecessary throughout with static recreations and generic interpretations which fortunately picks up a little life in the final stretch.
Check out the absolutly CRUNCHING versions of "Symptom of the Universe", the "Wizard", and "Children of the Grave". These songs all rock heavy and hard and each musician and vocalist has added something special to the chosen song.
Who wants to hear other people perform your favorite band's material in a grossly subpar manner. Normally I don't care for tributes.
Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford, Rob Zombie, Dave Mustaine, there all here. I'm going to make an exception here.
This isn't a collection of has beens and never weres, this is Black Sabbaths' peers and contempories trying their damndest to pay tribute to the grand daddy's of metal. I bought this album back in 1994 and it remains one of my favorite CDs in my collection.
This album is extremely good. All songs are amazingly covered by various famous bands like Megadeth, Sepultura, Biohazard, etc.I became a big fan of Black Sabbath after hearing this album. This is a must have album for anyone who listens to rock/metal.
