Foghat would have made way more sense.
Got to be honest, technical ecstasy is not a go to album for me to get my Sabb fix but going to reacquaint myself with it right now. |
It's really good Hard Rock. BUT, it's a bit vanilla. When you have such a unique sound as Sabbath, a sound that NO ONE could touch, it's a bit of disappointment when you try to be like everyone else putting out albums in the mid-70s and shoot for the middle-of-the-road. It's sort of like HBO wanting to become a Netflix killer with Max. How did that work out?! 🤣
That said, it's still very good album. Better than Foghat's Fool For The City for example, except OF COURSE for the epic "Slow Ride." That song rules! \m/
I'd put it in the same realm as Deep Purple's Come Taste The Band, (which was also Hard Rock and a massive departure from their classic Mrk II sound), but perhaps just a half star worse. |
I’d go along with all of that. Having listened to it for the first time in a very long time, Technical ecstasy feels rather confused. For the most part, it really doesn’t sound uniquely Sabb. There are some very good tracks and it’s not a bad album at all. Just not classic sabbath.
