TONY MARTIN Looks Back On BLACK SABBATH's Forbidden Album - "I Wish I Had The Chance To Re-Sing It, Because I Could Do A Much Better Job"

Ultimate Guitar's David Slavković recently spoke with singer Tony Martin, the second longest-running vocalist in Black Sabbath, and go more in-depth about the band's commercially panned Forbidden album from 1995 and a few other topics. Following is an excerpt from the interview.

UG: Traditionally, Forbidden is often looked down upon by the press. But honestly, I find that there's some really good stuff on it. "Rusty Angels", "Get a Grip", and "Kiss of Death" – really good songs actually. And it's one of the albums that got me into Black Sabbath as a kid. How how do you look back on it at this point? Do you think the music could have turned out better or production and mixing? I know that at one point you had negative comments about it. But did you change your opinion on it?

Tony Martin: "No, it's still shit. To me, anyway. I can't enjoy it. I mean... I have to tell you the background to it really. When we started that album, we didn't know it was going to be called Forbidden at this point. It's just us writing songs in the studio. And at that point, we were still quite good friends really. And everything was quite good. And the songs are going okay.

Then we had a call from Black Sabbath's management to say they were going to try this rap idea with Ice T. I didn't think that would work and Cozy Powell didn't think it would work. And so we had this meeting, and they said we are doing it. It's just like, you know, 'How do we get you guys to fit in?' So okay, well, we'll try. Ice T sent his guy Ernie C. Nice guys. Really nice guys. Nothing wrong with them, fun to work with and funny.

But the rap thing, the rap thing... I mean, they're obviously thinking Run DMC, you know? But it's Black Sabbath. And Cozy Powell kept saying 'I don't know how this is gonna turn out.' And they were trying to tell him how to play drums. Like, you do know who he is, right? It's Cozy Powell.

So anyway, they're trying to get him to do this rap rhythm thing. Cozy Powell wasn't digging it, I wasn't digging it. And then they said, 'Well, Ice T is gonna sing something.' And I said, 'Okay, sing what?' 'Well, we haven't decided yet.' Is he singing a song, a line a word? What's he singing? And they said, 'Well just keep going. We haven't decided, we'll make a decision at the end.' So we're writing these songs. And I'm still asking, 'What am I doing? Am I writing this thing? Am I singing on this?' 'Oh, well, we haven't decided yet.' Or, you know, 'Just keep going.' So even in the recording studio, I'm actually in the studio, and I still don't know if I'm going to be on the album or if somebody else is singing it. Because they wouldn't tell me.

Okay, now I can't concentrate. I can't sync my voice. I couldn't really make it work the way I wanted it to work. So for me, Forbidden is shit because of the background surrounding the thing. I'm fully expecting to be fired again. I'm thinking 'This is not good.' There's something going on, you know. I just couldn't concentrate.

For that reason, Forbidden is a lost album to me. And I wish I had the chance to re-sing it, because I could do a much better job, I think. But now, there are people that love it out there. And they find something – you've just said – that really worked for them. And I'm going 'How can you like that?!'"

Get a grip вообще топ, на все времена, особенно концовка.

Нарм альбум, но не топчег в целом. Ряпер не нужен был, офк, хоть особо засрать и не смог.

Как-то не заходили никогда альбомы с Мартином. Всегда казались скучными, а вокал его - бледным, особенно по сравнению с Дио. Можно обвинять кого угодно в провале "Forbidden", но в конечном итоге виноваты все же авторы и исполнители песен, а не Айс-Ти, которые всего-то пару строк спел в одной песне.

На мой взгляд, наиболее полно талант этого дядьки раскрывается в таких песнях, как The Law Maker, Jerusalem, The Sabbath Stones, Odin's Court+Valhalla. Ну и Get a Grip, конечно же.

хули вы тогда сиськи мнете, взяли бы, да переписали по бырому, а то уже не молодые, да и ковид тот же

Я так думаю, что записать-то нетрудно, а вот издать это всё, никого не обидев, чисто юридически дичайше запарно. Такие музыканты не пишутся дома в звуковую карту на комп, у них если запись, то как положено: бюджет, рекламная кампания и всё такое, а раскручивать такой релиз довольно тяжело. Тут Метла джастис с басом всё никак издать не может, а вы говорите перезаписать не самый популярный альбом целиком:)

"А они пытались объяснить ему, как играть на барабанах. Вы ведь знаете, кто он такой? Это Кози Пауэлл" - рэп это рэп. не важно ты Кози Пауэлл или трижды Бадди Рич, нет ничего плохого в том чтобы поучится у тех кто живет этим жанром

father, как вариант сделать закос под кавер-альбом. Есть же Maiden Unated, Emerald Sabbath, даже Doom Side Of Moon.

Forbidden всегда казался слабоватым даже по меркам TYR. С Мартиным лучшим считаю Hedless Cross.
