Sabotage is considered to be the last classic era album from the heavy metal giants Black Sabbath. It maintained their doom laden sound that attracted many legions of their fans. (US:28 UK:7)
“Arguably Sabbath's heaviest, this would also be their last truly great recording. This feels like a compilation of all the sounds sampled on the last five albums, smashed together to make a thunderous, sludge-drenched metal masterwork.”
“There's hardly a band that even comes close to them. Just when you think they would run out of thrilling music to play, they come out with this.”
“A great cocktail of fierce guitar playing and perfect vocals. Mind-blowing and catchy performance, this is model of progressive metal for an army of modern copycats.”
“Sabotage is the final album of classic era Black Sabbath. It's pretty similar to the two albums before it but a bit heavier. Symptom Of The Universe has a really aggressive riff which has gained attention as some kind of proto-thrash. Hole In The Sky is the template from which a million stoner/sludge/doom tracks have been copied.”
“Sabotage is the most perfect distillation of Black Sabbath's signature wall of doom sound. Every element that makes them great, from Ozzy Osbourne's mournful wail, to Tony Iommi's great thick down-tuned chordal guitar slabs, to Geezer Butler's muscular winding basslines, and Bill Ward's earth-crushing drumming are all set perfectly into place.”
“Sabotage has more perfect songs, with less misfires, than any other Sabbath album, including the more classic ones. It doesn't just have one epic song as a focal point, it has two, Symptom Of The Universe and Megalomania, both songs being brutally powerful.”
“Sabotage is where Black Sabbath reached their peak in terms of power, nuance, subtlety, variety and performance. Hole In The Sky and Symptom Of The Universe are the best of their heavier songs and Megalomania has a dark and mysterious feel that makes it one of their greatest songs ever.”
