BLACK SABBATH
The Ten Year War
Oft derided by the metropolitan media, the Brummie metal pioneers have stood the test of time. This ferociously handsome limited edition box set gathers the band’s seminal first eight Ozzy Osbournefronted albums on new vinyl editions, complete with single rarities and a digital edition of the contents too. Classics like Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Volume 4 and the punk-defying Never Say Die! haven’t just stood the test of time, they’ve hammered it to a pulp. Metal gets no heavier nor more essential.
