I was so frustrated in Sabbath after the last few albums. I just didn't like the musical direction Sabbath was going in

I don't feel a lack of hope. It's just disappointment that after all these years we're still fighting meaningless wars for a handful of people.

Lately, Ive been listening to some jazz albums. I love the new Pat Metheny album. John Coltrane. I still like good metal, though!

I like to deal in the reality of life. I'm too old to sing about women and things like that.

If you polish things too much, it loses the feeling

Toward the later days of Sabbath, instead of going in and knocking out what songs we did in rehearsal, we would polish them to death.

The Geezer album, Black Science, had a lot of keyboards and it did not work.
