Black Sabbath: Black Sabbath Volume Four (Warner Bros.)
Alan Niester, Creem, January 1973
OH JEEZ. The question is, would you rather have your Black Sabbath Volume 4 be, some sort of magnificent change of direction with the band loping down new and wondrous back alleys of musical mysticism, or would you prefer to have the same old shit and be bored again to a mindless husk? Volume 4, happily or unhappily, gives you the opportunity to have your wake and eat it too.
