I never try and sound like Sabbath.

I never try and sound like Sabbath.

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

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.

If you polish things too much, it loses the feeling

Black Sabbath was written on bass: I just walked into the studio and went, bah, bah, bah, and everybody joined in and we just did it.
