Sabotage is Black Sabbath's 1975 album, here on CD, and it might be the most furious and adventurous thing the original line-up ever put to tape.
By the mid-seventies, the band were tangled in legal battles with their former management, and the strain poured straight into the music. Rather than retreat into their trademark doom, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, Bill Ward and Ozzy Osbourne pushed outward, mixing crushing riffs with choirs, acoustic passages and ambitious song structures. The title says it all: they felt cornered, and they came out swinging.
Hole in the Sky kicks things off with a breathless roar, Ozzy at his most wild-eyed. Symptom of the Universe follows with one of Iommi's fastest, most savage riffs, a blueprint for thrash metal that turns into a dreamy acoustic coda. Megalomania is a near ten-minute epic that lurches from brooding menace to frantic release, while Am I Going Insane (Radio) offers synth-driven paranoia with a hook that is almost pop.
The album closes on the sprawling The Writ, a bitter, theatrical outpouring aimed squarely at the people who had wronged them.
Long hailed by fans as an underrated peak, Sabotage shows a band refusing to stand still even as everything around them threatened to fall apart.
