The drummer is smashing that pocket.....and the guitars ride over it with such shimmering finesse... I love when Farida wails "I know their torment shall never pass" and the part right after that "contraction and expansion" sooo powerful... Pure hard rock bliss, you can't help but bang your head when you feel this tune. Straight banger.
From the middle of never Into the endless ever after I stride among the broken clock Proclaiming “Lord, I am your rock!” Build on me your empire of euphoria! Kindle me with your unborn breath Let me fly on the wings of Gloria! Let me fly on the wings of death!
is it me or are the lyrics everwhere wrong? "I stride among the broken clock Proclaiming "Lord, I am your rock!"" this part never made sense to me no matter how loud or how hard i try i simply cant hear "proclaiming lord" it always sounds like either know that i am your rock or knowing i am your rock. i have no idea how this is supposed to say proclaiming lord
umm guys, after forever is from master of reality (definately old sabbath), the same album which features sweet leaf... a band so deep in occult lore and drugs hardly comes close to christian. perhaps they are christian and i dont really care if they believe in any god but i would never call the christian rock/metal
+Joseph R. Moore Well spoke. For myself, I still maintain true, full fledged Christian bands lack the edge other secular or outright Satanist bands have. Of course this is simply my opinion and I'm sure there are those that feel the exact opposite.
Possibly one of the best songs ever written

Unbelievably beautiful lyrics!
From the middle of never
Into the endless ever after
I stride among the broken clock
Proclaiming “Lord, I am your rock!”
Build on me your empire of euphoria!
Kindle me with your unborn breath
Let me fly on the wings of Gloria!
Let me fly on the wings of death!
My favorite part of the song. So damn genius.
My favorite part too :) All the way from "a pound of flesh, a pound of flesh... keeper demands a pound of flesh..."
This was suggested on Spotify and holy hell, what a jam. So delicious!
A straight master piece!nothing more to be said!straight straight up!!!
What a great poem.

Christianity would do MUCH better if they had music that rocked like this.....
dude what? black sabbath are definately not christian
Joseph R. Moore I agree with you, but the NEW Sabbath is definitely not the OLD Sabbath....

Actually, the members of Black Sabbath are Christian but Black Sabbath is not a Christian band.

Does anybody know who wrote the lyrics on this masterpiece???
Isn't it written by Selim?
Selim Melouchi and I think his sister Farida assisted.
Selim was the Mastermind
Great song. Here is the song the main riff comes from: czcams.com/video/HSLqwDtOB-0/video.html (Galopping Coroners, 1992)
