Fantastic metal album. Geezer takes the cake on tone and the vocals don't sound like Gollum. Also, there's a really fantastic eerie feel on this album that's legit - they play the slow tempos FANTASTIC too... slow isn't as easy as it seems, it's actually harder than fast (maybe not as easy as ultra fast though).

Great album and really scary when I first heard it. All that Figure in black pointing at me and all that.

Agree that music and vocals are sublime

A great album to play on a spooky dark winter's night

The only thing that is creepier than the title track is the album cover.

I don't think I've ever said this about any classic rock album on BEA, but this needs to be higher.

Yeah this really should be higher. 1970 and this feels soooo doomy I love it. Also the cover is so magnificent. I wish I was around in 1970 to see people's reactions when this record came out. It'd probably be a mix of mind-fuck and disgust, lol

I love this album because of its uniqueness.
As we know the musicianship is top shelf, but
No one was anticipating an album with this sound .
A real surprise!
