Reviews & Discussion
A leap forward for the Sabbs, no doubt. The interplay is more mature, as ''After forever'' will easily prove to you. There is even room for some acoustic guitar! ''Solitude'' could almost have been a Jade Warrior outtake. Rumbling train-riffs adorn ''Children of the grave'', an appeal for universal love, housed in dark cloth. On the other hand there are the ominous repetitions of ''Into the void''. It's diversity of sorts, but also a fork in the road: will they fall back on trodden paths or develop an even richer sound? Time will tell...
