I was so frustrated in Sabbath after the last few albums. I just didn't like the musical direction Sabbath was going in
It seems like the older bands are bigger than ever. We get a mixed crowd where you have kids and old blokes like me.
We were into Hendrix and Cream, who were like the heaviest bands around at that time. We just wanted to be heavier than everybody else!
It's totally produced now. It's almost like a conveyor belt of what metal's supposed to be like these days. It's not music to me.
However long the song is was how long it took us to write it.
