I really enjoyed this single. It's refreshing to hear Ozzy's voice sound as grizzled and as raw as it does. To accuse Sabbath of engaging in cliche is a little bit laughable in itself. Butler's lyrics have always been limited to a few choice themes, this is evident all the way through the 70s, if the lyrics adopted the philosophical ambitions of Pink Floyd, the same people would accuse Sabs of being pretentious. I'm excited to see what else 13 will have to offer, i just hope the majority of fans can look beyond the "no Bill, no Sabbath" mantra and appreciate good music for what it is
