We listened to The Eternal Album in the military back in '88. That was the first time I heard Tony Martin singing. Been into Sabs since the early 80's.

It's already unanimous that Tony Iommi did a refreshing job on this remix. It's sounding heavy, loud and clear as ever! I particularly love Martin's vocal style for this era of Black Sabbath and this album brings me good memories of a remarkable time in my life. Anxiously waiting for my box to arrive! Congratulations!!!! 🇧🇷

It's absolutely wonderful that this record gets a new remix. And I hope more fans get to appreciate the Martin-era of Sabbath. I also hope that Judas Priest get a lesson from this and do justice to the Ripper-era albums!

¡Kiss of Death one of the best sabbath songs ever!

Love the sound of the new mix so far! Great riffs on this album.

Thank you Tony Iommi for putting the work in. Really looking forward to the box set.

Forbidden is great album, period. It sounds great.

My favorite album off Tony Martin era. I REALLY loved it when it came out. I was shocked how modern Black Sabbath sounded for that time, instead of being an old established rock/metal band with a modern production. I still love Forbidden and can't wait to hear the remix! RIP Cozy Powell

Forbidden is a fantastic album, the hate is so unwarranted.

Enjoying the videos, but they are too short. Surely, they sat there longer than this. But so glad that I'll take anything.

I love Dio era Sabbath most, but tony Martin era is my second favourite. Can't wait for some justice to finally be delivered to this era.

Honestly, I don't think anyone should be ashamed of Forbidden. It's a very doomy album that seems to go back to the early days of Sabbath if anything. While I admit I'm not the fondest of the album, the title track and the rap metal track in there are underrated gems! Can't wait for the boxset!

Mutual agreement Tony Iommi and Ozzy Osborne 50/50 co- owners of the Black Sabbath name settled out of court in 2010 . It takes 3 original members to participate in the process for any new material or unreleased material for any use of the Black Sabbath name and franchise. It's not a popular opinion but it is a legal process between Tony and Ozzy not Sharon Osborne who was in charge of marketing for Sabbath during the Ozzfests tours.

If I remember correct, the Tonys were working on a couple of songs (new ones) to add to the remix as bonus. Of course we know we can't have new stuff under the Sabbath moniker 😒... I can't help to think , that those songs could materialize soon on a (at least) a Iommi/Martin single or EP 🤞🏼🤘🏼

I've actually come to really appreciate "Forbidden" after all these years. There's really only one track I tend to skip and that's the opener "The Illusion of Power" featuring Ice-T. I'm more inclined to play this album than "13". The only songs I tend to listen to from "13" are "Naïveté in Black" and "Methademic", which aren't even on the main album but came as bonus tracks. For me, the final great Black Sabbath album was "The Devil You Know". Despite it being under the band name of Heaven & Hell, it's still a Black Sabbath album (for me anyway).

@snarkherder

I think having "The Illusion of Power" as the opening track is the worst decision they made with this one. That one should have been buried on track 5 or 6...never lead with your weakest song (I get why they did it, trying to attract new listeners and all that, but...oof). I still like this song, but it's definitely the weakest link on the album. I'd put it on the end, but...I like strong closers, and "Kiss of Death" is a perfect way to end the album. "Rusty Angels" is also pretty weak imo...they recycled a riff from Dehumanizer, and I know it's about airplanes, but the lyrics aren't great...still, I've listened to this album from start to finish a hundred times by now. Think I listened to 13...twice. It's fine when it's on, but it just doesn't grab me.

🤘💀🤘

Kiss of death, rusty angels - very good songs!!!!

Bluestone is now a major holiday site. The guitarist in my old band did their website

I always wanted to listen Forbidden, trying to understand why people hate it so much. Today I did it for the first time, and honestly I don't get the hate. There are some nasty riffs here and there, and 'I won't cry for you' has such beautiful melodies. Seriously, why the hate? On a side note, I also love the album cover!

Tony & Tony should continue writing & recording together. Call it “Iommi”, “Tony Iommi”, “Heaven and Hell”, or whatever, just don’t call it Sabbath.

I've seen a few "rating the Sabbath albums lists" and "Forbidden" comes up as the worst, even Tony says in his book that he did not like it. I think that it is a far better album than "Cross Purposes", which was too "friendly/poppy", but is was great that Geezer was on it. The best Sabbath albums are the evil-sounding, doomy-gloomy , heavy ones like "Master of Reality" ...my fave.

The first six albums with Ozzy are pretty untouchable, but I think Forbidden is better than Technical Ecstasy, Never Say Die, Born Again (I know I'm going to get some hate for that one lol), Seventh Star, Eternal Idol, and 13. None of these albums are bad, mind you, but I get the sense that a lot of these guys who hate on Forbidden have only heard Illusion of Power and think the entire album sounds like that.

Yes, good point about the people who are quick to judge an album after the 1st track.

Born Again is a very funny moment in the bands history, I would say that Seventh Star is my least fave (I don't like Glenn Hughs, but again there are some cool GTR riffs).@@snarkherder
