“Vertigo Records issued the debut album by Black Sabbath on Friday, February 13, 1970, and the world was never the same,” Zakk Sabbath write. “Legendarily recorded in a single day in October 1969, the earthmoving self-titled set closed the book on hippie optimism with its dark magic and ushered in a brand new genre, setting the metal template for decades to come.”
“Exactly 50 years to the date later, Zakk Sabbath will celebrate the first chapter in the Sabbath catalog with a reverently rendered tribute, simply titled Vertigo. Our aim is to faithfully re-record the album in the spirit of the original recordings: live in a fully analogue studio, direct to two inch tape, in a single 24 hour period. A film crew will document the process, culminating in a single album and DVD release limited to just 500 copies and delivered to purchasers on February 13, 2020.”
THIS IS A TRAVESTY AND THIS MUST BE STOPPED. Zakk Wylde actually thinks that he can go in and actually re-create the magic of an already perfect album. Why would anyone want to hear this iconic album recorded by Captain Caveman and his Teenangels?
PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION AND I WILL PRESENT IT TO ZAKK WYLDE’S PR DEPARTMENT AND LABEL. This aggression WILL NOT stand!
