Born Again is the only Black Sabbath album to feature Deep Purple's Ian Gillan on vocals, a loud, murky and gloriously strange 1983 release presented here as a two-disc UK import CD edition.
After Ronnie James Dio's departure, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler surprised everyone by recruiting Gillan, and original drummer Bill Ward briefly returned to the fold. On paper it was a supergroup. In practice the album became one of the most debated entries in the Sabbath catalogue, famous for its notorious cover art and a muddy mix that fans still argue about.
Yet the songs have aged far better than the reputation. Trashed opens at full throttle, a high-speed tale inspired by a drunken night behind the wheel, with Gillan screaming over a galloping Iommi riff. Zero the Hero grinds along on one of the heaviest grooves of the era, and Disturbing the Priest pairs eerie atmosphere with clanging percussion. The title track slows to a crawl, letting Gillan's voice soar through a mournful, doom-laden ballad.
Over the decades, Born Again has picked up a passionate cult following, with many metal fans now hearing its rough edges as part of its charm.
For collectors of the Sabbath story, it is a fascinating detour, unlike anything else the band ever made.
