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

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

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.

I've been perfectly happily married for 25 years, and have a nice life. Inane things don't interest me.

To me, Sabbath was always just a really heavy blues band. That s all we were. We just took those blues roots and made them heavier.

If you are a pop band, don't say you're a metal band. Poison and Warrant were about as metal as the Backstreet Boys.

The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.
